Hornets' Cody Martin: Still not ready for game action
Rotowire
Martin (knee) still isn't ready for game action, but he's trying to return before the Hornets' final regular-season game April 9 versus Cleveland, Roderick Boone of The Charlotte Observer reports.
Martin has dealt with the lingering knee pain since training camp, suiting up for only one of the Hornets' five preseason games, and played just one minute in the regular-season opener versus San Antonio before subbing himself out. He ultimately underwent an arthroscopic surgery about a month later and missed 37 straight games before returning Jan. 4 against Memphis. However, he appeared in just six contests before being shelved again. Per Boone, Martin's rehab includes strengthening, specific agility drills and exercises, ice and stim procedures and some light on-court work, but he's struggled to make any progress. "It's tough because as a player nobody knows my body better than me," Martin said in an interview with Boone. "Nobody wants me to play more than I do, and it's tough to sit here and watch, especially this long. The only thing I can control right now is staying on top of my rehab, and just being consistent with that and just making sure I'm feeling good."

Rotowire
Martin (knee) is listed as out Friday against Minnesota.
Martin has only appeared in seven games all season -- six of which came in mid-January -- and it remains completely unclear when he might return to game action. The Hornets begin their post-All-Star schedule with a back-to-back set, so Martin will almost certainly miss Saturday's game against Miami. After the weekend, Charlotte will only have 20 games remaining, so it's shaping up to be almost a completely lost season for the 27-year-old.
