Contract Value Index (CVI)
Jock Landale's one-year, $2.3M deal earns a D+ CVI — a modest overpay for a backup center whose production hasn't matched even reasonable expectations for his role. The 30-year-old 5-year veteran is averaging 10.6 PPG and 5.6 RPG across 65 games, numbers that fall short of justifying his salary when paired with his D- performance grade. While $2.3M isn't franchise-altering money for a center, it represents poor value in a market where similar production can be found cheaper or where those dollars could address more pressing needs. At this stage of his career, Landale appears to be a replacement-level big man whose reliable availability and professionalism have created a disconnect between his positive reputation and actual basketball impact. The Hawks clearly value his steady presence during their evaluation period, but the short-term commitment suggests they're hedging their bets on whether his contributions warrant future investment. The modest financial risk makes this deal manageable, but Atlanta essentially paid a premium for depth that hasn't delivered commensurate value on the court.
Performance Analysis
Jock Landale earns a D- Performance grade, indicating below-average production relative to other NBA centers this season. Through 285 games, Jock is contributing 10.6 points, 5.6 rebounds, and 1.7 assists per game in his role. Jock's strongest area is RPG at 5.6, which compares favorably to the center median of 5.0. The biggest area for growth is APG at 1.7 (center median: 4.0). Among 97 NBA centers graded this season, Jock ranks 97th.
