Where the gap is

from the numbers above

Paolo Banchero scored more in 2025-26, 0.7 points a game apart (22.2 vs 21.5), on Banchero's heavier usage (27.4% vs 26.4%).

Efficiency is a wash: true shooting within a point of each other (57.3% vs 56.6%).

Playmaking goes to Banchero (5.2 vs 3.7 assists), the glass to Banchero (8.4 vs 5.6 rebounds).

With Ingram on the floor his team outscored opponents by +1.0 per 100 possessions, against -0.2 for Banchero; 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, Banchero $41.5M through 2030-31. Whether either fits a trade is a Trade Machine question, not a stat one.
