Hornets' Cody Martin: Back to bench Friday
Rotowire
Martin is not in the starting lineup for Friday's game against the Bulls.
Martin will return to a bench role with Miles Bridges back in the starting five. The six-year veteran is averaging 8.8 points and 4.5 rebounds across 25.6 minutes per game when coming off the bench this season. His upside should be fairly low with Bridges back in the mix, though.

Hornets' Cody Martin: Joining starting five

Hornets' Cody Martin: Scores 15 points Thursday
Rotowire
Martin logged 15 points (6-8 FG, 3-4 3Pt), three rebounds, one assist, two blocks and one steal across 36 minutes during Thursday's 123-121 overtime win over the Pistons.
Martin was extremely efficient as a scoring weapon despite coming off the bench, and he finished as the Hornets' third-best offensive threat behind the star duo of Brandon Miller (38 points) and LaMelo Ball (35 points). Martin should continue playing off the bench for the foreseeable future, but the lack of consistency on a game-to-game basis certainly hurts his upside. This was Martin's first game with double-digit points since Nov. 8, when he also scored 15 points in a win over the Pacers.
