Contract Value Index (CVI)
Larry Nance Jr.'s one-year, $2.3M deal with Cleveland earns a solid B- CVI, representing excellent value for a rotational big man in today's inflated market. The veteran forward brings defensive versatility and reliable energy off the bench — exactly what contending teams need without breaking the bank. At $2.3M annually, the Cavaliers are getting a proven commodity who can guard multiple positions and contribute in playoff scenarios, making this a shrewd depth acquisition.
