Where the gap is

from the numbers above

Jay Huff scored more in 2025-26, 1.0 points a game apart (9.5 vs 8.5), on Huff's heavier usage (17.8% vs 17.1%).

Huff is the more efficient scorer by true shooting, 59.8% to 55.2%; TS% folds threes and free throws into one number, so the gap survives shot-diet differences.

Playmaking goes to Huff (1.5 vs 1.3 assists), the glass to Huff (4.0 vs 3.6 rebounds).

With Lopez on the floor his team outscored opponents by +1.2 per 100 possessions, against -6.3 for Huff; on-court net rating carries the teammates with it, so read it next to PIE.

On the books for 2026-27: Lopez $9.2M through 2026-27, Huff $2.7M through 2027-28. Whether either fits a trade is a Trade Machine question, not a stat one.
