Rather than going to Vanderbilt, Martin Jr. instead opted to do a post-graduate season at Bradenton (Fla.) IMG Academy. He was able to train and get prepared for life as a professional basketball player.
During the 2018-19 season at Sierra Canyon High School, Martin Jr. averaged 20.4 points, 9.4 rebounds and 2.0 assists.
Sierra Canyon High School is where LeBron James' son, Bronny James, plays his basketball.
At the National Prep Showcase back in November, Martin Jr. registered 37 points and 20 rebounds in two games. His father was the No. 1 overall pick back in the 2000 NBA Draft by the New Jersey Nets.
Martin Sr. averaged 12.3 points, 6.8 rebounds and 1.9 assists during his NBA career. He made the 2001 All-Rookie team and the 2004 All-Star team.
