Where the gap is

from the numbers above

Nae'Qwan Tomlin scored more in 2025-26, 0.0 points a game apart (5.8 vs 5.8), on Tomlin's heavier usage (15.1% vs 9.7%).

Wade is the more efficient scorer by true shooting, 58.0% to 54.9%; TS% folds threes and free throws into one number, so the gap survives shot-diet differences.

Playmaking goes to Wade (1.5 vs 0.8 assists), the glass to Wade (4.2 vs 2.9 rebounds).

With Wade on the floor his team outscored opponents by +6.2 per 100 possessions, against +3.6 for Tomlin; 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, Tomlin $2.4M through 2026-27. Whether either fits a trade is a Trade Machine question, not a stat one.
