Cameron Payne sits 4216th on the totals basis and 1370th per game, a career that reads differently depending on the question. His best year was 2020-21: +2.1 roto value, 151st that season and 6737th of 24,555 player-seasons on record. He banked roto value in assists (+3.0), free-throw percentage (+2.2) and turnovers (+2.0) and gave it back in rebounds (-6.3), field-goal percentage (-6.0) and blocks (-4.8). The 2846-place difference between his two bases is not noise: it is what he was worth per night set against how many nights he played. 2019-20 is the sharpest single case: -3.6 on totals against +3.3 per game, off 8 games.
