Values based on 2025-26 production, 0 games into 2026-27.
Why no prediction
The model needs at least 20 games played in the current season to generate a reliable market value. Projecting 82-game rate stats from a smaller sample inflates noise (a player with 5 GP and 5 points projects to 82 points). This player has 13 games played, so predicted value and delta are suppressed until the sample size supports a real calculation.
