Is Fred VanVleet the most overrated player in the NBA right now? (alien.top)

I mean the guy gets $40 million, and it's not like he's doing exceptionally well. He's putting up 16-4-9, while teammate Sengun (makes $3.5 million) puts up 21-9-6; also keep in mind Vanvleet plays 37 minutes compared to Sengun's 32 minutes a game. Obv I understand Sengun's salary is so low because of his rookie contract, but I can't wrap my head around how VanVleet makes that much money for slightly above average stats. yall agree or nah?

Well Harden was the other choice, so... Plus Houston was pressed to spend that cap money and Ime was looking for vet leaders. Regarding him being paid more than the guys you mentioned, their time to get the bag will come. FVV getting paid isn't mutually exclusive from those dudes getting their big payday.
