From T.O. to Moscow and back for Martin
TheStar.com | Sports | From T.O. to Moscow and back for Martin
Handling the rigours of training camp should be a snap for Darrick Martin, seeing how he’s been through one this year already.
The veteran Raptors point guard, whose negotiations on a new deal with Toronto are progressing smoothly, has been on loan to Euroleague giant CSKA Moscow for about the last three weeks. Martin has lent them his playing expertise and it has allowed him a chance to get in top shape before NBA camp begins later this month.
Martin, a free agent looking at another one-year deal in Toronto, was farmed out to CSKA Moscow because four of its top guards are playing for Russia in the European championship and the team needs to get ready for the domestic season, which begins in October.
