Where the gap is

from the numbers above

Chaney Johnson scored more in 2026-27, 0.1 points a game apart (5.1 vs 5.0), on Payton II's heavier usage (17.2% vs 13.2%).

Payton II is the more efficient scorer by true shooting, 52.2% to 47.4%; TS% folds threes and free throws into one number, so the gap survives shot-diet differences.

Playmaking goes to Johnson (1.0 vs 0.4 assists), the glass to Johnson (2.8 vs 1.6 rebounds).

With Payton II on the floor his team outscored opponents by -2.4 per 100 possessions, against -10.9 for Johnson; on-court net rating carries the teammates with it, so read it next to PIE.

On the books for 2026-27: Johnson — through —, Payton II $2.4M through 2026-27. Whether either fits a trade is a Trade Machine question, not a stat one.
