Curry is the more efficient scorer by true shooting, 63.7% to 56.9%; TS% folds threes and free throws into one number, so the gap survives shot-diet differences.

Playmaking goes to Sengun (6.2 vs 4.7 assists), the glass to Sengun (8.9 vs 3.6 rebounds).

Availability is part of the comparison: Sengun played 29 more games (72 vs 43 of 82).

With Sengun on the floor his team outscored opponents by +3.4 per 100 possessions, against +2.8 for Curry; on-court net rating carries the teammates with it, so read it next to PIE.

On the books for 2026-27: Sengun — through —, Curry $62.6M through 2026-27. Whether either fits a trade is a Trade Machine question, not a stat one.
