Impact comes from adjusted plus-minus rather than a box-score estimate of it, so a player who helps in ways the box score misses is not penalised for it. Contract surplus is absent, not estimated: no free licensed per-player salary source exists for the NBA, so the money half of this layer does not ship rather than shipping a guess.
