With Miller on the floor his team outscored opponents by +8.5 per 100 possessions, against +4.0 for Randle; on-court net rating carries the teammates with it, so read it next to PIE.

On the books for 2026-27: Miller $15.1M through 2026-27, Randle $33.3M through 2027-28. Whether either fits a trade is a Trade Machine question, not a stat one.
