Where the gap is

from the numbers above

Santi Aldama scored more in 2025-26, 0.3 points a game apart (14.0 vs 13.7), on Hunter's heavier usage (21.8% vs 19.1%).

Aldama is the more efficient scorer by true shooting, 57.2% to 54.5%; TS% folds threes and free throws into one number, so the gap survives shot-diet differences.

Playmaking goes to Aldama (2.9 vs 2.0 assists), the glass to Aldama (6.7 vs 4.1 rebounds).

With Hunter on the floor his team outscored opponents by -0.9 per 100 possessions, against -2.4 for Aldama; 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, Aldama $17.0M through 2027-28. Whether either fits a trade is a Trade Machine question, not a stat one.
