The 33-year old NBA veteran Kevin Martin is still unsigned up to this date and still a member of the NBA Free Agents. Martin is set to come back in the NBA as he is reportedly being chased by the Grizzlies and the Cavaliers.
In a press release by the Christian Daily, the Memphis Grizzlies has announced their interest to sign Kevin Martin a few months ago. The Grizzlies are in search of a good backup shooting guard as they struggle in the needs of depth in the said position.
The Grizzlies doesn't have enough fire power in the 2 guard position. Tony Allen is known to be a perimeter defender and slasher, but is not the type of player that can provide pressure outside the 3-point line. Kevin Martin could be the one who can provide shooting for the Grizzlies, even coming off the bench will be a great task for him.

The other notable team who might come along the way of Kevin Martin is the Cleveland Cavaliers. Cavaliers are obviously in search of a shooting guard as well since they have an issue re-signing J.R. Smith this off-season. Kevin Martin can fill the empty space for the Cavaliers for his style is similar to J.R. Smith. A prominent 3-point threat that is capable of hitting clutch shots, Kevin Martin is likely to be the man for the Cleveland Cavaliers.
Kevin Martin was listed to be the best option for the Cavaliers as the Forbes reported previously. LeBron James and Kyrie Irving could be a trigger-happy isolation player if Kevin Martin would be acquired by the Cavaliers.
Another team rumored to have an interest to Kevin Martin is the New York Knicks. The Knicks are in the rebuilding process and as on their current look, they seem to be NBA Playoffs-resident in the next few years. Carmelo Anthony would be happy to add Kevin Martin on the second unit as they move to a win-now status.
Still no confirmation from any the teams yet, Kevin Martin expected to sign with any of the NBA teams before the NBA Season start. Kevin Martin can be a very good addition as he is known to be an explosive scoring option.
