Where the gap is

from the numbers above

De'Andre Hunter scored more in 2025-26, 0.5 points a game apart (13.7 vs 13.2), on Hunter's heavier usage (21.8% vs 20.1%).

Johnson is the more efficient scorer by true shooting, 61.3% to 54.5%; TS% folds threes and free throws into one number, so the gap survives shot-diet differences.

Playmaking goes to Hunter (2.0 vs 1.4 assists), the glass to Johnson (5.4 vs 4.1 rebounds).

Availability is part of the comparison: Johnson played 37 more games (82 vs 45 of 82).

With Johnson on the floor his team outscored opponents by +7.8 per 100 possessions, against -0.9 for Hunter; on-court net rating carries the teammates with it, so read it next to PIE.

On the books for 2026-27: Hunter $24.9M through 2026-27, Johnson $17.5M through 2026-27. Whether either fits a trade is a Trade Machine question, not a stat one.
