Hawaii’s steady, efficient frontcourt weapon
In the 2003-04 season, Phil Martin was a polished Hawai‘i forward whose value came from reliability, efficiency, and two-way toughness: he finished with 1,231 career points and 618 rebounds, started nearly every game, and was already in elite company as a program leader in games played[6][14]. He wasn’t just a scorer—he paired strong finishing with a sturdy frame, solid rebounding, and disruptive hands, including a career-high five steals in one game[6]. If you want a dependable, physical forward who brings veteran presence and production without needing the ball nonstop, Martin is exactly that kind of glue guy with bite[6][11][14].
