Leads scoring in lopsided upset Martin logged 18 points (6-14 FG, 2-5 3Pt, 4-5 FT), six rebounds, one assist and two steals across 34 minutes during Tuesday's 73-43 win over Tennessee.

Impact On a night in which leading scorer Walter Clayton found himself in foul trouble and couldn't be as aggressive, it was Martin who took the reins on offense and led the way for the Gators. His 18 points led the charge in the home upset victory, marking the first time in program history Florida has knocked off an AP No. 1-ranked team at home.

Bounce-back shooting night Martin posted 15 points (6-10 FG, 3-6 3Pt), 11 rebounds, six assists and one steal over 33 minutes during Saturday's 83-66 victory over Arizona State.

Impact Martin has been a highly efficient scorer for the Gators this season, but in Florida's last game he shot an uncharacteristic 1-for-6 showing from deep. He bounced back by shooting 60 percent from the floor in an easy win over Arizona State. Martin and point guard Walter Clayton have combined to form one of the most formidable back courts in the nation this season.

Impact Martin isn't doing it all that efficiently (38.9 percent from the field) but he's hit double digit points in all but one game this season. The guard is an aggressive scorer, and if his three pointers start to fall - he's shooting just 26.7 percent from beyond the arc - he could start doing some serious damage for the Gators.
