Can Kenyon Martin Jr. be one of the best two-way players in the league? The answer is yes. Ever since the 6’6 small forward made his regular-season debut with the Houston Rockets on March 12th, he’s been averaging 7.3 points, 4,5 rebounds, and 1.0 blocks, all while playing 19.1 minutes per game.

He has blocked and dunked on some of the biggest and tallest players in the league. His 3-point shot needs some work, but that will come along as he improves his game.
