Where the gap is

from the numbers above

De'Anthony Melton scored more in 2025-26, 0.1 points a game apart (12.3 vs 12.2), on Melton's heavier usage (24.4% vs 22.0%).

Johnson is the more efficient scorer by true shooting, 53.5% to 51.8%; TS% folds threes and free throws into one number, so the gap survives shot-diet differences.

Playmaking goes to Melton (2.6 vs 2.0 assists), the glass to Melton (3.2 vs 2.8 rebounds).

Availability is part of the comparison: Johnson played 11 more games (60 vs 49 of 82).

With Melton on the floor his team outscored opponents by +3.9 per 100 possessions, against -11.2 for Johnson; on-court net rating carries the teammates with it, so read it next to PIE.

On the books for 2026-27: Melton $5.5M through 2027-28, Johnson $8.6M through 2028-29. Whether either fits a trade is a Trade Machine question, not a stat one.
