Contract Value Index (CVI)
Taylor Hendricks's contract with the Memphis Grizzlies is graded as a D CVI. At $6.1M per year, the team is currently paying more than the on-court production warrants — a gap that needs to close for this deal to work out. Taylor's production is currently below the league median for power forwards, which is the main factor pulling the CVI grade down. His $6.1M average annual value ranks as role player money for the power forward market. The concern here is the gap between production and cost — the team is paying a premium above the player's on-court value. At 22, Taylor has years of development ahead, which adds significant upside to this contract. The 2-year deal keeps the commitment short, giving the team financial flexibility to move on if performance drops.
Performance Analysis
Taylor Hendricks earns a D+ Performance grade, indicating below-average production relative to other NBA power forwards this season. Through 95 games, Taylor is contributing 7.4 points, 3.6 rebounds, and 1.0 assists per game in his role. Taylor's strongest area is FG% at 46.8, which compares favorably to the power forward median of 46.0. The biggest area for growth is APG at 1.0 (power forward median: 4.0). Among 84 NBA power forwards graded this season, Taylor ranks 60th. At 22, Taylor is still developing. The production should improve as he gains experience and a larger role with the Memphis Grizzlies.
