Doncic is the more efficient scorer by true shooting, 61.6% to 57.4%; TS% folds threes and free throws into one number, so the gap survives shot-diet differences.

With Miller on the floor his team outscored opponents by +8.5 per 100 possessions, against +3.8 for Doncic; 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, Doncic $49.8M through 2028-29. Whether either fits a trade is a Trade Machine question, not a stat one.
