Grade Gradey Dick
Your grade joins the crowd-sourced Fan Verdict.
On the field, Gradey Dick grades out as a shaky SG for Toronto Raptors (D Impact). That places him 97th of 147 graded shooting guards. In his on-court role, the grade is middling (C Role), reflecting how he produces relative to others at his position. Against that production, his deal reads as fairly priced on the Contract Value Index (C) — the team is paying below what the play would command. The public read is sharply negative (F Sentiment), drawn from current news and social signal rather than the box score.

Above-rotation impact at near-tier salary earns Gradey Dick a C Contract Value Index. At $5M AAV on a one-year deal, Dick's contract carries minimal cap risk and reflects appropriate valuation for a third-year player operating in a reserve role—the salary is reasonable, but the performance underneath it tells a cautionary tale. His 2025-26 season numbers (6.4 PPG, 2.1 RPG across 66 games) represent a decline in offensive contribution without corresponding defensive or playmaking development to offset it; he is producing below the threshold necessary to justify confidence in his role going forward. The CVI grade itself reflects a salary that outpaces his current on-court value, a mismatch that becomes more glaring when paired with his D-tier performance grade and the media consensus that he functions more as a tradeable asset than a foundational piece. With the Raptors in active evaluation mode—evidenced by recent signings and roster churn—and widespread reporting that Dick's tenure in Toronto is approaching a breaking point, the one-year structure actually works in the franchise's favor, providing flexibility to move him before the trade deadline without long-term obligation. Unless Dick demonstrates a marked efficiency and defensive leap heading into the stretch run, this contract will remain underwater relative to his production, and the Raptors will likely treat it as an expiring asset rather than a commitment to his development.
Other same-position deals the Contract Value Index also places in the C band — a quick read on where Gradey's contract sits relative to comparable money.
Gradey Dick ranks 97th of 147 graded shooting guards by performance. That slots Gradey between Chaz Lanier (D) just ahead and Jase Richardson (D) just behind.

Gradey Dick earns a D Performance grade, indicating below-average production relative to other NBA shooting guards this season. Through 178 games, Gradey is contributing 6.4 points, 2.1 rebounds, and 0.7 assists per game in his role. Gradey's best relative area is FG% at 42.2, though it still falls below the shooting guard median of 46.0. The biggest area for growth is APG at 0.7 (shooting guard median: 4.0). Among 147 NBA shooting guards graded this season, Gradey ranks 97th. At 22, Gradey is still developing. The production should improve as he gains experience and a larger role with the Toronto Raptors.
Gradey Dick's reputation has deteriorated significantly amid poor shooting and rotation exclusion. Trade speculation and rotation removal dominate headlines, reflecting genuine performance decline. The C- grade and 10.6 PER validate concerns about his development trajectory. Media criticism is warranted given underperformance on a modest contract. Fan frustration centers on unfulfilled prospect potential rather than off-court issues.
