Where the gap is

from the numbers above

LeBron James scored more in 2025-26, 0.5 points a game apart (20.9 vs 20.4), on James's heavier usage (26.2% vs 25.9%).

James is the more efficient scorer by true shooting, 59.4% to 56.9%; TS% folds threes and free throws into one number, so the gap survives shot-diet differences.

Playmaking goes to James (7.2 vs 6.2 assists), the glass to Sengun (8.9 vs 6.1 rebounds).

Availability is part of the comparison: Sengun played 12 more games (72 vs 60 of 82).

With Sengun on the floor his team outscored opponents by +3.4 per 100 possessions, against +2.6 for James; 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, James $3.9M through 2027-28. Whether either fits a trade is a Trade Machine question, not a stat one.
