Where the gap is

from the numbers above

Aaron Wiggins scored more in 2025-26, 0.1 points a game apart (9.4 vs 9.3), on Wiggins's heavier usage (19.4% vs 15.1%).

Shamet is the more efficient scorer by true shooting, 59.8% to 53.8%; TS% folds threes and free throws into one number, so the gap survives shot-diet differences.

Playmaking goes to Wiggins (1.7 vs 1.4 assists), the glass to Wiggins (3.1 vs 1.8 rebounds).

Availability is part of the comparison: Wiggins played 14 more games (65 vs 51 of 82).

With Shamet on the floor his team outscored opponents by +8.1 per 100 possessions, against +6.2 for Wiggins; on-court net rating carries the teammates with it, so read it next to PIE.

On the books for 2026-27: Wiggins $9.2M through 2028-29, Shamet $5.4M through 2029-30. Whether either fits a trade is a Trade Machine question, not a stat one.
