At 34 years of age, Kenyon Martin certainly isn’t he highlight machine he used to be, but he can still provide fire and spark off the bench. He’d fit in nicely with either the Lakers or a return to the Nets.
But sources said the 34-year-old power forward is holding up this later stage of the hiring process for frontcourt free agents, with the Lakers and the Nets among the teams he’s considering and negotiation leverage seemingly gone because so many of his colleagues seem willing to take minimum deals. Golden State was interested in Martin before last week signing power forward Carl Landry to a two-year, $8 million deal that, by comparison, looks lucrative.
