Who’s in Charge? The Answer is Cody Martin

It’s a four-point Hornets lead with just under eight minutes remaining in the team’s third outing of the season on a Sunday evening in Brooklyn. PJ Washington is guarding the Nets’ James Harden just above the three-point arc. As the lane clears out, Harden drives to the right looking to cut the deficit down to one possession. Keeping a watchful eye on his own man near the left post, Cody Martin quickly sets his feet just in front of the restricted circle a second or two before the former MVP comes barreling into him for an offensive foul.

Following a jumper by Ish Smith at the other end, Harden starts from the same spot, trying to get past Washington again.
