Martin signed a two-way contract with the Raptors after a five-year college career. He led Florida Atlantic to the Final Four in 2023 before helping Florida to its third national title last year, becoming the first player to start for two teams in the national semifinal round.
The 24-year-old is averaging 2.3 points and one rebound on 34.1% shooting from the field in 21 games with the Raptors. He recorded a season-high nine points, eight rebounds, four steals and two blocks on Jan. 11 in a win over the Philadelphia 76ers.
