Where the gap is

from the numbers above

Jevon Carter scored more in 2025-26, 0.2 points a game apart (6.4 vs 6.2), on Carter's heavier usage (16.6% vs 15.2%).

Efficiency is a wash: true shooting within a point of each other (54.0% vs 53.7%).

Playmaking goes to Caruso (2.0 vs 1.6 assists), the glass to Caruso (2.8 vs 1.7 rebounds).

With Caruso on the floor his team outscored opponents by +17.6 per 100 possessions, against -5.7 for Carter; on-court net rating carries the teammates with it, so read it next to PIE.

On the books for 2026-27: Caruso $19.6M through 2028-29, Carter $2.4M through 2026-27. Whether either fits a trade is a Trade Machine question, not a stat one.
