Thunder at 4 p.m.: Martin is making a name for himself

The Norman Transcript

NORMAN — Kevin Martin continues to show he can score from anywhere on the floor since coming to Oklahoma City from Houston. The shooting guard is the team's third leading scorer at 17 points per game. he is also shooting 48 percent from the field, 50 percent from 3-point range and 93 percent from the free throw line.

Cavaliers coach Byron Scott said the biggest difference between Martin and James Harden is that while Harden is more of a playmaker and can do more things well. Martin is a more prolific scorer.

It's early, but Martin has a chance to give the Thunder a second consecutive 6th Man of the Year Award.
