Where the gap is

from the numbers above

Ben Saraf scored more in 2025-26, 0.1 points a game apart (7.5 vs 7.4), on Saraf's heavier usage (20.2% vs 18.5%).

Bogdanovic is the more efficient scorer by true shooting, 52.5% to 48.6%; TS% folds threes and free throws into one number, so the gap survives shot-diet differences.

Playmaking goes to Saraf (3.3 vs 2.2 assists), the glass to Bogdanovic (2.6 vs 2.1 rebounds).

Availability is part of the comparison: Saraf played 21 more games (44 vs 23 of 82).

With Bogdanovic on the floor his team outscored opponents by -4.4 per 100 possessions, against -12.5 for Saraf; on-court net rating carries the teammates with it, so read it next to PIE.

On the books for 2026-27: Saraf $3.0M through 2028-29, Bogdanovic $2.4M through 2026-27. Whether either fits a trade is a Trade Machine question, not a stat one.
