The flood of Maccabi Tel Aviv signings continues.

The renewed team of Oded Katash announced today (Monday) the joining of domestic player Jarl Martin (2.08, 28) in a two-year contract.

Martin will be the tenth signing of the Yellows this season and the eighth among the foreigners.

"Jarl is a very versatile player. He is a good attacking player and a very good rebounder on both sides of the court," explained coach Oded Katash.

"He has played in the NBA and Australia so he will have to adapt to the Euroleague, but I trust him to do it in the best way possible. He is a team player who was a significant part of a team that won a championship in Australia."

Martin (28, 2.08) a graduate of LSU University from 2015 was selected 25th in the draft by Memphis and played for three seasons in the Grizzlies uniform while also being sent to the Development League during the period.

His best season was the 2017/18 season, when he played 73 games in the NBA, 36 of them in the top five and recorded 7.7 points and 4.4 rebounds per game.

In the 2018/19 season he was traded to Orlando but played little, and the following season played very little in the Development League.

In December 2020, he joined Sydney Kings from the Australian League, where he also played this season, averaging 16 points and 7.9 rebounds per game this season.

The Yellows have so far added no less than eight new foreign players - guards Wade Baldwin, Lorenzo Brown, Darren Hilliard and Austin Hollins, forwards Martin and Bonzi Coulson, and inside players Alex Poiters and Josh Nivo.

Two Israelis also joined the seven - Guy Pnini and Rafi Manko.

The club are also expected to make a decision on the continuation of John Dibertolomao's path at the club and decide on Max Heidegger's return from the loan.
