Where the gap is

from the numbers above

Jonathan Kuminga scored more in 2025-26, 0.3 points a game apart (12.2 vs 11.9), on Kuminga's heavier usage (22.6% vs 17.5%).

Hinson is the more efficient scorer by true shooting, 68.4% to 55.7%; TS% folds threes and free throws into one number, so the gap survives shot-diet differences.

Playmaking goes to Kuminga (2.3 vs 1.1 assists), the glass to Kuminga (5.6 vs 2.4 rebounds).

Availability is part of the comparison: Kuminga played 22 more games (36 vs 14 of 82).

With Hinson on the floor his team outscored opponents by +6.7 per 100 possessions, against +4.1 for Kuminga; on-court net rating carries the teammates with it, so read it next to PIE.

On the books for 2026-27: Hinson — through —, Kuminga $6.1M through 2027-28. Whether either fits a trade is a Trade Machine question, not a stat one.
