Phoenix Suns guard/forward Cody Martin (hernia) will not debut for his new team until after the All-Star break. Phoenix will be in action twice before the break, playing out a back-to-back set on Tuesday and Wednesday. Martin hasn't played since Jan. 24 due to a sports hernia. Before moving to Phoenix, Martin averaged 7.8 points, 4.5 rebounds, and 2.3 assists in 24.8 minutes with the Charlotte Hornets. It's unlikely he will get near these numbers with his new team, as there are now a lot more bodies ahead of Martin on the depth chart.
The Phoenix Suns acquired forward Cody Martin along with guard Vasilije Micic and a 2026 second-round pick from the Charlotte Hornets in exchange for Jusuf Nurkic and a first-round pick. While the trade was mostly about moving Nurkic, Martin is an interesting addition to the Suns. The 29-year-old has been limited to 39 games this season but has produced 7.8 points, 4.5 rebounds, 2.3 assists, and 1.1 steals in his 24.8 minutes per game. He has shown good upside in higher usage situations, and he could work his way into a meaningful role in the Suns' second unit, but his role is very undefined at this point.
The Charlotte Hornets announced forward Cody Martin (abdomen) has been ruled out for Friday's game against the Los Angeles Clippers. Martin will miss his fourth contest in a row due to a sports hernia injury. Josh Green (foot) is listed as probable for this evening, so if he can suit up, he will take a large amount of Martins minutes on the floor. Josh Okogie and DaQuan Jeffries could also see expanded roles versus the Clippers.
Cody Martin Inactive For Wednesday Versus Brooklyn
The Charlotte Hornets announced forward Cody Martin (abdomen) has been ruled out for Wednesday's game against the Brooklyn Nets. Martin will miss his third contest in a row due to a sports hernia injury. A timeline hasn't been set on when the 29-year-old veteran forward will return. In the meantime, Josh Okogie and DaQuan Jeffries will take extra minutes, especially this evening, with Josh Green (foot) also missing in action.
Charlotte Hornets small forward Cody Martin (abdomen) has been ruled out ahead of Monday's game against the Detroit Pistons. The small forward will miss his second game in a row due to core tightness. He was last seen in action against the Portland Trailblazers, where Martin had a rebound and an assist in four minutes. This season, Martin has averaged 7.8 points, 4.6 rebounds and 2.3 assists per game. His field goal percentage stands at 43.3%, while his three-point shooting percentage is at 32.3%.
Charlotte Hornets forward Cody Martin (knee) is available ahead of Friday's game against the Detroit Pistons. Martin will make his return to the court after missing each of the last two games due to a left knee contusion. The expectation is that Martin is going to have his normal workload on Friday. Possibly, Martin takes on a bigger role with Brandon Miller (ankle) still sidelined. Martin hasn't been a great fantasy option this season, but is worth a look as a streaming option with Miller out.
Charlotte Hornets forward Cody Martin (knee) is listed as questionable ahead of Friday's game against the Detroit Pistons. Martin is hopeful to get back on the court here after missing each of the last two games due to a lingering knee issue. The Hornets have been shorthanded with LaMelo Ball (wrist) and Brandon Miller (ankle) also sidelined for those games. That has pushed Seth Curry and Vasilije Micic into bigger roles in the rotation. Both players are worth considering as low-end streaming options if the Hornets aren't able to get healthy before Friday's contest.
Charlotte Hornets guard/forward Cody Martin (knee) will miss a second straight game on Monday versus Chicago. This comes as no surprise, as Martin was listed as doubtful on the initial injury report. The Hornets also won't have the services of LaMelo Ball (ankle, wrist) and Brandon Miller (ankle), so players like Josh Green and Seth Curry will have expanded roles. The two will start the contest alongside Vasilije Micic, Miles Bridges, and Mark Williams.
Cody Martin Active For Tuesday Night's Matchup Against Orlando
Charlotte Hornets forward Cody Martin (illness) is active for Charlotte's game on Tuesday against the Orlando Magic. Martin popped up on the injury report with an illness but feels good enough to play through it. The 29-year-old has averaged 9.9 PPG and 4.5 RPG to start this season. Expect Martin to continue to produce off the bench for the Hornets. Fantasy managers and DFS players should temper expectations for Martin against a stout Magic defense, though. Still ensure he's in your lineups as he will get 25 minutes of game action but his normal numbers may be muted.
Charlotte Hornets forward Cody Martin (illness) is listed as probable for Wednesday night's matchup against the Detroit Pistons. Martin had been dealing with a minor illness but hasn't missed any time. Expect the 29-year-old to continue coming off the bench for Charlotte. Martin's averaging 10.0 PPG this season while shooting 37% from three. While the three-point shooting percentage seems encouraging, fantasy managers shouldn't expect consistent production going forward as he's failed to play more than 20 minutes in each of the Hornets' last two games. Better options are likely available on the waiver wire that fantasy managers should prioritize until Martin either catches a hot streak or finds his way back into the starting lineup.
