In our staff predictions piece a couple weeks back, all but one of us here at Dunking With Wolves said that Kevin Martin would be the first player Timberwolves traded this season.
Now, by suggesting that he will likely be traded, I am not saying that Martin is no longer a valuable player in this league. In fact, he could make a serious impact on a playoff team. Coming off the bench and providing instant offense is the best role for him at this stage in his career, and many playoff teams are looking for just that.
