Where the gap is

from the numbers above

Gary Payton II scored more in 2025-26, 0.1 points a game apart (7.5 vs 7.4), on Bogdanovic's heavier usage (18.5% vs 17.7%).

Payton II is the more efficient scorer by true shooting, 63.2% to 52.5%; TS% folds threes and free throws into one number, so the gap survives shot-diet differences.

Playmaking goes to Bogdanovic (2.2 vs 1.7 assists), the glass to Payton II (3.6 vs 2.6 rebounds).

Availability is part of the comparison: Payton II played 50 more games (73 vs 23 of 82).

With Payton II on the floor his team outscored opponents by -2.3 per 100 possessions, against -4.4 for Bogdanovic; on-court net rating carries the teammates with it, so read it next to PIE.

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