Where the gap is

from the numbers above

Brandon Ingram scored more in 2025-26, 1.4 points a game apart (21.5 vs 20.1), on Ingram's heavier usage (26.4% vs 22.4%).

Bane is the more efficient scorer by true shooting, 60.7% to 57.3%; TS% folds threes and free throws into one number, so the gap survives shot-diet differences.

Playmaking goes to Bane (4.1 vs 3.7 assists), the glass to Ingram (5.6 vs 4.1 rebounds).

With Bane on the floor his team outscored opponents by +2.2 per 100 possessions, against +1.0 for Ingram; on-court net rating carries the teammates with it, so read it next to PIE.

On the books for 2026-27: Ingram $40.0M through 2027-28, Bane $39.4M through 2028-29. Whether either fits a trade is a Trade Machine question, not a stat one.
