Where the gap is

from the numbers above

Jay Huff scored more in 2025-26, 0.8 points a game apart (9.5 vs 8.7), on Sharpe's heavier usage (19.0% vs 17.8%).

Sharpe is the more efficient scorer by true shooting, 63.8% to 59.8%; TS% folds threes and free throws into one number, so the gap survives shot-diet differences.

Playmaking goes to Sharpe (2.3 vs 1.5 assists), the glass to Sharpe (6.7 vs 4.0 rebounds).

Availability is part of the comparison: Huff played 20 more games (82 vs 62 of 82).

With Sharpe on the floor his team outscored opponents by -4.3 per 100 possessions, against -6.3 for Huff; on-court net rating carries the teammates with it, so read it next to PIE.

On the books for 2026-27: Sharpe $10.0M through 2027-28, Huff $2.7M through 2027-28. Whether either fits a trade is a Trade Machine question, not a stat one.
