Mason Plumlee's contract with the San Antonio Spurs earns a C+ CVI — roughly what you'd expect for this level of production and salary. Mason's production is currently below the league median for centers, which is the main factor pulling the CVI grade down. His $3.0M average annual value ranks as minimum-level money for the center market. The production lines up closely with the price tag, which is essentially paying fair market value. At 36, the aging curve is the biggest risk factor on this contract — the window for peak production is closing. The 1-year deal limits the San Antonio Spurs' downside — if the fit doesn't work, they'll have cap flexibility soon.
