Where the gap is

from the numbers above

T.J. McConnell scored more in 2025-26, 0.1 points a game apart (9.4 vs 9.3), on McConnell's heavier usage (22.7% vs 13.7%).

Mitchell is the more efficient scorer by true shooting, 58.2% to 56.7%; TS% folds threes and free throws into one number, so the gap survives shot-diet differences.

Playmaking goes to Mitchell (6.5 vs 5.1 assists), the glass to Mitchell (2.7 vs 2.2 rebounds).

Availability is part of the comparison: Mitchell played 14 more games (70 vs 56 of 82).

With Mitchell on the floor his team outscored opponents by +4.2 per 100 possessions, against -7.6 for McConnell; on-court net rating carries the teammates with it, so read it next to PIE.

On the books for 2026-27: Mitchell $12.4M through 2026-27, McConnell $11.0M through 2028-29. Whether either fits a trade is a Trade Machine question, not a stat one.
