Productive Wolves shooting guard Kevin Martin will miss tonight's game against Cleveland at Target Center with flu-like symptoms.

Wolves coach Rick Adelman inserted Robbie Hummel into Martin's spot in the starting lineup, giving the rookie his first NBA start.

Martin had scored 20 or more points in seven of the team's eight games, with three 30-point games in that mix. He had scored his 10,000th career point Monday against the L.A. Clippers.
