Where the gap is

from the numbers above

Jabari Walker scored more in 2025-26, 0.1 points a game apart (4.3 vs 4.2), on Knecht's heavier usage (17.1% vs 14.2%).

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

Playmaking goes to Walker (0.5 vs 0.4 assists), the glass to Walker (3.0 vs 1.4 rebounds).

Availability is part of the comparison: Walker played 10 more games (64 vs 54 of 82).

With Walker on the floor his team outscored opponents by 0.0 per 100 possessions, against -8.5 for Knecht; on-court net rating carries the teammates with it, so read it next to PIE.

On the books for 2026-27: Knecht $4.2M through 2027-28, Walker $2.6M through 2026-27. Whether either fits a trade is a Trade Machine question, not a stat one.
