In the upcoming NBA regular season, the SUNS will play the Kings. Before the game, the Sun coach Budenholzer in a media interview revealed good news: Cody-Martin is expected to play this game, and this will be his first appearance after joining the Sun team.
Cody Martin has played in 39 games this season, averaging 7.8 points, 4.5 rebounds, 2.3 assists, 1.1 steals and 0.7 blocks while shooting 43.3 per cent from the field, 32.3 per cent from 3-point range and 69.4 per cent from free throw range. However, after being traded to the SUNS at the trade deadline, Martin has been unable to play for his new team because of a sports hernia.
Although once listed as doubtful for the game, Budenholzer revealed before the game that Martin would warm up before the game. If he feels fit, then he will have a chance to play in this game. This is undoubtedly good news for the SUNS because the addition of Martin will enhance the depth of the team.
Martin also expressed his desire to play in an interview before the game: “For the most part, I don’t think anyone is 100 per cent healthy, but the most important thing is to get close to 100 per cent healthy. Every night, I try to play.”
However, the SUNS will also face some challenges in this game. In addition to Martin being expected to play, the team will be without Richards and Allen two players. The absence of these two players may have some impact on the overall strength of the SUNS. But in any case, fans are expecting Cody Martin to make his SUNS career debut in this game and show his strength and style.
