Nick Martinelli

Draft Notes

Martinelli is an interesting player; a high scoring forward who doesn’t hit a lot of 3’s but loves to operate in the mid range and get physical in the lane.

He’s a tough and hard-nosed player who isn’t afraid to mix it up and has an uncanny ability to put the ball in the basket, despite it not always looking smooth or conventional.

A lefty who loves to go left and can finish in traffic and over length. Will have to improve his right hand finishing.

Developing his 3pt shot will be key for his success at the next level.
