Where the gap is

from the numbers above

Paolo Banchero scored more in 2025-26, 2.0 points a game apart (22.2 vs 20.2), on Banchero's heavier usage (27.4% vs 27.2%).

Efficiency is a wash: true shooting within a point of each other (57.4% vs 56.6%).

Playmaking goes to Banchero (5.2 vs 3.3 assists), the glass to Banchero (8.4 vs 4.9 rebounds).

With Miller on the floor his team outscored opponents by +8.5 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: Miller $15.1M through 2026-27, Banchero $41.5M through 2030-31. Whether either fits a trade is a Trade Machine question, not a stat one.
