Where the gap is

from the numbers above

Jose Alvarado scored more in 2025-26, 0.0 points a game apart (7.4 vs 7.4), on LeVert's heavier usage (17.8% vs 16.7%).

Alvarado is the more efficient scorer by true shooting, 54.3% to 51.8%; TS% folds threes and free throws into one number, so the gap survives shot-diet differences.

Playmaking goes to Alvarado (3.4 vs 2.7 assists), the glass to Alvarado (2.5 vs 2.0 rebounds).

Availability is part of the comparison: Alvarado played 9 more games (69 vs 60 of 82).

With Alvarado on the floor his team outscored opponents by +1.3 per 100 possessions, against +0.8 for LeVert; on-court net rating carries the teammates with it, so read it next to PIE.

On the books for 2026-27: LeVert $14.8M through 2026-27, Alvarado $4.5M through 2028-29. Whether either fits a trade is a Trade Machine question, not a stat one.
