BIO: Rhys Martin was born and raised in Brisbane (QLD) . He began playing basketball as a junior with the Southern Districts Spartans.

Somewhat of a basketball savant and with the talent to match, Rhys Martin would probably go down as one of the smartest players to come out of Queensland.

NBL EXPERIENCE

Rhys Martin made his NBL debut with the Brisbane Bullets at 21 years of age. He went scoreless in his first NBL game.

During his time with the Hawks Martin helped the team reach the Grand Final after they finished in second place (16-12) during the 2009/10 season. In the Hawks semi-final matchup with the third placed Townsville Crocodiles. Martin contributed 9 points and 5 assists to help the Hawks win the opening game 87-68. In game two, the Crocodiles returned the favour, defeating the Hawks 82-53 on their home court with Martin contributing 15 points, 3 rebounds, and 3 assists. The series returned to Wollongong for game three where the Hawks led the game from start to finish, winning 88-76 with Martin having his best game of the series, recording 16 points, 3 rebounds, and 5 assists.

The 2010 NBL Grand Final would then see the Hawks face the Perth Wildcats who claimed game one in Perth, 75–64, with Martin contributing 5 points. The series then headed to Wollongong for game two, where the Hawks returned the favour and defeated Perth 75–63, behind a huge offensive game from Cam Tragardh (28 points) and Martin contributing 10 points. The deciding game three would return to Western Australia where Perth comfortably defeated Wollongong 96-72, with Kevin Lisch exploding for 29 points (5 from 9 three point shots) in front of their home fans. Martin added 12 points in the final game while Kevin Lisch was named Finals MVP after averaging 18 points and 4 rebounds over the three games.

During his time with the Hawks Martin helped the team reach the 2010 NBL grand final series before falling short to the Perth Wildcats.

Rhys Martin played eleven seasons in the NBL, playing for both the Brisbane Bullets and the Illawarra Hawks. He averaged 7.1 points, 2.3 rebounds, and 2.7 assists in 267 NBL games.
