Kenyon Martin Jr., aka K.J. Martin, is the lone draft pick acquired by the Houston Rockets in the 2020 NBA Draft. They also didn’t draft him — they traded cash considerations and a future second round pick for Martin’s right from the Kings.
As of last week, Houston signed the rook to a four-year deal, with the first year fully guaranteed.
Now that we have the formalities out of the way, how exactly will he fit with this Rockets team? Martin, like his namesake (his dad is Kenyon Martin in case you didn’t know that), is known for his incredible athleticism.
