An explosive, downhill-scoring wing with first-round athletic tools, now a 21-year-old reclamation bet on a team option. No 2025-26 sample is logged here to rate, so this is a swing on the upside: a powerful slasher and bench bucket-getter who still needs to round out his feel and defensive consistency.

Trajectory

▬Steady

Cam, at 21, was as productive as ever when he played, but managed only 21 games last season, so his value to a team dipped (2.1 → 1.0 wins).

Current deal: $5,458,310 cap hit · through '27. On the contract row the flat dashed line is this salary, so the gap to the 2026-27 forecast is the surplus.

Seasons from Basketball-Reference (2023-24 → 2025-26). Production is box plus-minus, a per-possession measure. Value is VORP-based wins, so it also counts games played. Contract value is what each season’s play would fetch on the open market. The dotted 2026-27 point is a forecast: his established level, a year older, assuming a normal season.
