NBA ROLE: ÜBER-ATHLETIC FORWARD

 

KJ Martin: ridiculously athletic forward* whose specialty is elite transition finishing; loves to push the ball & get out on the break - KJ has a nice off-hand: excellent control + finishing ability, uses a strong dribble to blast down the court; much-improved 3-point threat (steadier release point, has gotten rid of hitch in his jumper), doesn’t hesitate from downtown; loves to score (over the top) after screening, must continue working on options after aiding a ball-handler up top; crazy-athletic combo forward: KJ possesses traits similar to 5s - crashes the glass hard (rises high for vicious, putback slams), likes to bang & do work in the lane; very nice help-side shot-blocker: meets offensive players at the apex; needs to add a pull-up game & alternate moves w/ a live ball; hovers around Star UnderDOG status when given enough minutes; traded to Sixers (2024): utility threat at the 4/5
