Where the gap is

from the numbers above

Collin Gillespie scored more in 2025-26, 0.2 points a game apart (12.7 vs 12.5), on Monk's heavier usage (23.4% vs 18.1%).

Efficiency is a wash: true shooting within a point of each other (57.5% vs 56.8%).

Playmaking goes to Gillespie (4.6 vs 3.0 assists), the glass to Gillespie (4.1 vs 1.9 rebounds).

Availability is part of the comparison: Gillespie played 18 more games (80 vs 62 of 82).

With Gillespie on the floor his team outscored opponents by +3.7 per 100 possessions, against -8.3 for Monk; on-court net rating carries the teammates with it, so read it next to PIE.

On the books for 2026-27: Gillespie $10.7M through 2029-30, Monk $20.2M through 2027-28. Whether either fits a trade is a Trade Machine question, not a stat one.
