Where the gap is

from the numbers above

Keyonte George scored more in 2025-26, 0.3 points a game apart (23.6 vs 23.3), on George's heavier usage (27.5% vs 25.8%).

Reaves is the more efficient scorer by true shooting, 64.1% to 60.9%; TS% folds threes and free throws into one number, so the gap survives shot-diet differences.

Playmaking goes to George (6.1 vs 5.5 assists), the glass to Reaves (4.7 vs 3.7 rebounds).

With Reaves on the floor his team outscored opponents by +5.0 per 100 possessions, against -8.6 for George; on-court net rating carries the teammates with it, so read it next to PIE.

On the books for 2026-27: Reaves $41.2M through 2029-30, George $6.6M through 2026-27. Whether either fits a trade is a Trade Machine question, not a stat one.
