Where the gap is

from the numbers above

Luka Doncic scored more in 2025-26, 13.1 points a game apart (33.5 vs 20.4), on Doncic's heavier usage (36.8% vs 25.9%).

Doncic is the more efficient scorer by true shooting, 61.6% to 56.9%; TS% folds threes and free throws into one number, so the gap survives shot-diet differences.

Playmaking goes to Doncic (8.3 vs 6.2 assists), the glass to Sengun (8.9 vs 7.7 rebounds).

Availability is part of the comparison: Sengun played 8 more games (72 vs 64 of 82).

With Doncic on the floor his team outscored opponents by +3.8 per 100 possessions, against +3.4 for Sengun; 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, Doncic $49.8M through 2028-29. Whether either fits a trade is a Trade Machine question, not a stat one.
