The youth movement of the Minnesota Timberwolves has pushed the 33-year-old Kevin Martin down in the rotation, as he’s averaging his lowest minutes total since his rookie season. The three-point sharpshooter would be a solid addition to any team that needs help in that area. These are the most likely landing spots for Martin.
5. Houston Rockets
Getty ImagesMartin played two seasons with the Rockets before being moved in the James Harden trade. After a nightmare of a season, Houston is barely clinging to the No. 8 seed, and as usual, firing three-pointers at a higher rate than any other team.
4. Dallas Mavericks

The Dallas Mavericks just added David Lee after he was waived by the Celtics, but the team that is 20th in three-point percentage could use a shooter.
3. Boston Celtics
Getty ImagesThe Celtics are on fire right now, moving up to the No. 3 seed in the East and six behind Toronto in the loss column. But one of their greatest weaknesses is their shooting, as Boston is just 22nd from the field and 27th from three-point range.
2. San Antonio Spurs
Getty ImagesESPN reported that the Spurs were the favorite for Martin, but that was before San Antonio signed Andre Miller. If they want Martin they'll have to release another player. For a team that doesn't rely on the three-point shot, it may not be worth it.
1. Cleveland Cavaliers
Getty ImagesAfter missing out on Joe Johnson, Cleveland is likely to be in the mix for Martin's services. The Cavs could use help at shooting guard behind J.R. Smith, as Iman Shumpert has struggled since his return from injury.
