Where the gap is

from the numbers above

White is the more efficient scorer by true shooting, 59.5% to 56.2%; TS% folds threes and free throws into one number, so the gap survives shot-diet differences.

Playmaking goes to Giddey (9.1 vs 4.0 assists), the glass to Giddey (8.3 vs 3.4 rebounds).

With White on the floor his team outscored opponents by +3.2 per 100 possessions, against -5.0 for Giddey; on-court net rating carries the teammates with it, so read it next to PIE.

On the books for 2026-27: White $22.8M through 2028-29, Giddey $25.0M through 2028-29. Whether either fits a trade is a Trade Machine question, not a stat one.
