Best Value Contracts in the NBA for the 2022-23 Season

-ProFitX Staff 

Welcome to the ProFitX blog! In this space, and through the application of our software, we’re committed to creating balance within sports by democratizing information and continuing to defy the limits of performance and financial analytics. Our innovative technology is powered by Artificial Intelligence and allows us to do the hard work while you make informed decisions on the fly. Whether you’re a player, team, fan, or agent, leveraging real-time financial and performance insights helps you make smarter, faster decisions.  ——————————————————————————————————————————————–   For a variety of reasons, the value of a player to a team doesn’t always align with how much they’re being paid. When a player is signed to a contract, there’s many factors that go into the value and length of the deal.    With that in mind, there will always be players that end up being drastically overpaid or underpaid. Taking this into account, leveraging the ProFitX Athledex allows us to quickly identify which players are projected to outperform their contract during the 2022-23 season. With just a few clicks, our technology can benchmark a player’s contract value against their real-time contract value through time.

  In addition to accessing this feature,  we can also project the future value of an athlete – a key attribute given players sign contracts based on what they’re expected to do in the future, not solely what they’ve already done.  Using this data, we put together a list of ten players that are on some of the best value contracts this season, excluding players still on entry-level rookie scale deals. If there were such a thing as NBA All-Value Teams, who would make the cut?    

NBA First Team All-Value:

  Guard: Ricky Rubio Contract Value: $5.85 million ProFitX Projected Value: $20.66 million   Guard: Patty Mills Contract Value: $7.07 million ProFitX Projected Value: $19.95 million   Forward: Kenrich Williams  Contract Value: $2.0 million ProFitX Projected Value: $14.12 million   Forward: Richaun Holmes Contract Value: $11.22 million ProFitX Projected Value: $23.75 million   Center: Andre Drummond Contract Value: $3.2 million ProFitX Projected Value: $19.83 million  

NBA Second Team All-Value:

  Guard: Dejounte Murray Contract Value: $16.57 million ProFitX Projected Value: $29.35 million   Guard: Seth Curry Contract Value: $8.5 million ProFitX Projected Value: $22.26 million   Forward: Dillon Brooks Contract Value: $11.4 million ProFitX Projected Value: $21.69 million   Forward: Domantas Sabonis Contract Value: $18.5 million  ProFitX Projected Value:$36.17 million   Center: Jakob Poeltl Contract Value: $9.4 million ProFitX Projected Value: $16.73 million       In the modern NBA, it’s all about doing the most with cap space. For these players, we project they’ll be worth much more than they’re being paid, putting their respective teams in a great financial situation. Additionally, many of these athletes are entering the final season of their current contract. If they play at the level we project them to, a large increase in pay should be coming. Using the ProFitX Proxtial model, we can look back at the previous two seasons and forward two seasons to understand the top eight athlete development areas of growth. This allows us to get an understanding of how an athlete has improved recently and where they could continue to improve as they develop and are more deserving of a larger contract.
