Dean Wade vs Kobe Brown

Kobe Brown scored more in 2025-26, 0.0 points a game apart (5.8 vs 5.8), on Brown's heavier usage (15.4% vs 9.7%).

Brown is the more efficient scorer by true shooting, 59.4% to 58.0%; TS% folds threes and free throws into one number, so the gap survives shot-diet differences.

Playmaking goes to Wade (1.5 vs 1.3 assists), the glass to Wade (4.2 vs 3.0 rebounds).

With Wade on the floor his team outscored opponents by +6.2 per 100 possessions, against -10.5 for Brown; on-court net rating carries the teammates with it, so read it next to PIE.

On the books for 2026-27: Wade $9.0M through 2029-30, Brown — through —. Whether either fits a trade is a Trade Machine question, not a stat one.
