Where the gap is

from the numbers above

Spencer Jones scored more in 2025-26, 0.3 points a game apart (5.5 vs 5.2), on Newell's heavier usage (16.0% vs 9.7%).

Efficiency is a wash: true shooting within a point of each other (62.4% vs 61.9%).

Playmaking goes to Jones (0.8 vs 0.6 assists), the glass to Jones (3.3 vs 2.2 rebounds).

Availability is part of the comparison: Jones played 20 more games (64 vs 44 of 82).

With Jones on the floor his team outscored opponents by +1.6 per 100 possessions, against -3.8 for Newell; on-court net rating carries the teammates with it, so read it next to PIE.

On the books for 2026-27: Newell $3.4M through 2028-29, Jones $6.0M through 2027-28. Whether either fits a trade is a Trade Machine question, not a stat one.
