Having seen Martin play in person many times over the past two years, this is my sleeper-in-plain-sight inclusion. He carries a good frame for an NBA shooting guard. Martin shot 43% from beyond the arc last season and was still devoted enough to rebound at both ends. There are understandable concerns about his free throw and 2-point percentages. As a four-year player, I'd guarantee you he doesn't get a first-round grade from a single NBA team. I will trust the growth. He'll become a good plug-and-play scorer and wind up as a top-30 producer by the end of his career.

2022 NBA Mock Draft: Duke's Paolo Banchero goes No. 1 based on who is most likely to have the best pro career

Matt Norlander's mock draft evaluates players on their long-term potential in the NBA

CBS Sports has him going in the first round as the 29th pick. Would be an incredible story and accomplishment. He certainly has played his way into receiving first round consideration.

I listened to the CBS Sports podcast yesterday. It sounds like they don’t necessarily think that’s where he will go but more where he should go. Norlander said he thinks he’s one of the likely second round picks who he thinks has the best chance to have a long nba career.

Obviously going in the first round would be amazing for a guy who really deserves it.
 
Sam Vecenie has him ranked 68th in his draft guide. Basically says he should be a two-way at least, and could be a guy that contributes pretty quickly as a minutes eater.

Elsewhere, he has said there's been a lot of calling prospects in the entire second round looking for who is willing to take a two-way. I have to imagine Tyrese would be willing, because the prove-it attitude is deeply ingrained in him. So I think he's going to get drafted. Just a hunch, but I'd bet it if I could.
 
He’s got size and can do a little bit of everything.

I’m still not convinced that he’s going to be drafted or even that it matters if he’s drafted - he’s going to be offered a contract by someone.
 
I've read Celtic insider stuff that Brad loves his game and would grab him if available and his 2 top priorities haven't slipped down
I love TM but really don't see him as a 1st rounder but who knows?
In a way, he's like a poor mans Marcus Smart

And pretty much everyone saw him multiple times between Portsmouth, the g league camp, 3x3U, and the real combine. He's probably had the most summer exposure of any prospect.
 
Tyres is a great guy and will do well in the interview process. What’s not to like about his work effort, grit and team ball? He is smart enough to adjust to the situation.
As for draft placement, the 1st round may be a stretch goal but it is a draft without a lot of depth. I am hoping he gets the first round money but also agree the right situation is key too.
 
jeremy woo has him at #53 to the celtics. that's the highest i have seen him in a legit mock. i know it would make myself and a lot of other boneyard celtics fans very happy.
