Sentiment Analysis
Low-risk developmental signing of an undrafted forward with minimal immediate impact expected. Five headlines suggest modest media interest in the App State alum's NBA journey. Making the opening night roster as an undrafted player shows some organizational belief. Fans are cautiously optimistic about his two-way contract development potential. Huntley will likely spend most time in G-League honing skills.
Contract Value Index (CVI)
Phoenix Suns' signing of CJ Huntley grades out as an excellent deal (A), adding quality at forward. The 1-year, $559K deal ($559K AAV) represents excellent value in the current market.
