Professional career

NBA

Not selected during the 2005 NBA Draft, Marshall has participated in several summer leagues (Southern California Summer Pro League with the Memphis Grizzlies, Rocky Mountain Revue with the Dallas Mavericks). His performances (18.6 points per game, 3.0 rebounds per game and 1.4 assists per game in 27.4 minutes per game in the Rocky Mountain Revue) helped him to earn a one-year contract with the Dallas Mavericks on August 5, 2005.

Marshall did not find the court much early in his rookie season with the Mavericks. Instead, Marshall was sent to the NBA D-League team the Fort Worth Flyers, where he averaged 17.4 points per game. He then returned to the Dallas Mavericks, where he started multiple games due to injuries to Josh Howard, Adrian Griffin, and Devin Harris. While his minutes still were limited, he surpassed the expectations that surrounded an average undrafted rookie. However, he did not make the Mavericks' playoffs roster in 2006. On July 23, 2006, Marshall was traded to the Indiana Pacers, along with Darrell Armstrong and Josh Powell, for Anthony Johnson. He spent the 2006–07 season with the Pacers.

He averaged 17.3 points per game in the ULEB Cup and 15.7 points per game in the Adriatic League. With his team Hemofarm he reached last 16 in ULEB Cup, where they lost to later finalist Akasvayu Girona. He was also finalist in Adriatic league and Basketball League of Serbia, where in both cases Hemofarm was defeated by KK Partizan.

He then moved to the Croatian League club KK Cibona for the 2008–09 season, a club also of the regional Adriatic League and also of the top European-wide competition the Euroleague. He was honored as the Euroleague Round 7 MVP during the 2008–09 season. He joined the Ligue Nationale de Basketball club ASVEL in 2009.[3] In August 2010 he joined PAOK.[4]
