Where the gap is

from the numbers above

Deni Avdija scored more in 2025-26, 3.8 points a game apart (24.2 vs 20.4), on Avdija's heavier usage (28.5% vs 25.9%).

Avdija is the more efficient scorer by true shooting, 60.0% to 56.9%; TS% folds threes and free throws into one number, so the gap survives shot-diet differences.

Playmaking goes to Avdija (6.7 vs 6.2 assists), the glass to Sengun (8.9 vs 6.9 rebounds).

With Sengun on the floor his team outscored opponents by +3.4 per 100 possessions, against +0.3 for Avdija; on-court net rating carries the teammates with it, so read it next to PIE.

On the books for 2026-27: Sengun $35.6M through 2029-30, Avdija $13.1M through 2027-28. Whether either fits a trade is a Trade Machine question, not a stat one.
