Martin believes Porter would have been a lottery pick — one of the top 14 selections — had he been healthy.
“I don’t think there’s any question about whether anyone thinks he can play the game,” Martin said.
“This situation was unique from the standpoint nobody questioned where he’d be as a draft prospect if he’s healthy,” he added. “There’s no question about it, first rounder. It’s just a matter of how high. With injuries and when you have multiple surgeries of the magnitude that he’s had I think that would be the only question mark from a basketball standpoint. He understands the game. He knows how to play the game. He has a great feel for the game. He’s a good person. He’s a good locker room guy. He has all those qualities.”
“First and foremost is giving Jontay comfort and allowing him the time to have peace of mind to decide what he wants to do moving forward,” Martin added. “That’s not to say he hasn’t locked into a situation with a team even though you probably haven’t seen anything yet. That’s not to say at all. We’ll have to wait and see to get his feel for it.”
