Where the gap is

from the numbers above

AJ Green scored more in 2025-26, 0.5 points a game apart (10.4 vs 9.9), on Thompson's heavier usage (16.8% vs 13.5%).

Green is the more efficient scorer by true shooting, 62.7% to 54.5%; TS% folds threes and free throws into one number, so the gap survives shot-diet differences.

Playmaking goes to Thompson (3.1 vs 1.9 assists), the glass to Thompson (5.7 vs 2.7 rebounds).

With Thompson on the floor his team outscored opponents by +11.6 per 100 possessions, against -3.6 for Green; on-court net rating carries the teammates with it, so read it next to PIE.

On the books for 2026-27: Green — through —, Thompson $11.1M through 2031-32. Whether either fits a trade is a Trade Machine question, not a stat one.
