Ace Bailey vs John Collins

Ace Bailey scored more in 2025-26, 0.2 points a game apart (13.8 vs 13.6), on Bailey's heavier usage (21.0% vs 18.8%).

Collins is the more efficient scorer by true shooting, 64.3% to 53.3%; TS% folds threes and free throws into one number, so the gap survives shot-diet differences.

Playmaking goes to Bailey (1.8 vs 1.0 assists), the glass to Collins (5.3 vs 4.2 rebounds).

With Collins on the floor his team outscored opponents by -1.2 per 100 possessions, against -10.7 for Bailey; on-court net rating carries the teammates with it, so read it next to PIE.

On the books for 2026-27: Bailey $9.5M through 2028-29, Collins $17.0M through 2028-29. Whether either fits a trade is a Trade Machine question, not a stat one.
