P.J. Washington scored more in 2025-26, 0.5 points a game apart (14.2 vs 13.7), on Hunter's heavier usage (21.8% vs 19.4%).

Efficiency is a wash: true shooting within a point of each other (54.5% vs 53.7%).

Playmaking goes to Hunter (2.0 vs 1.8 assists), the glass to Washington (7.0 vs 4.1 rebounds).

Availability is part of the comparison: Washington played 11 more games (56 vs 45 of 82).

With Hunter on the floor his team outscored opponents by -0.9 per 100 possessions, against -7.3 for Washington; on-court net rating carries the teammates with it, so read it next to PIE.
