Where the gap is

from the numbers above

Deni Avdija scored more in 2025-26, 2.5 points a game apart (24.2 vs 21.7), on Avdija's heavier usage (28.5% vs 26.2%).

Efficiency is a wash: true shooting within a point of each other (60.0% vs 60.9%).

Playmaking goes to Avdija (6.7 vs 2.5 assists), the glass to Avdija (6.9 vs 3.5 rebounds).

Availability is part of the comparison: Avdija played 8 more games (66 vs 58 of 82).

With Powell on the floor his team outscored opponents by +0.6 per 100 possessions, against +0.3 for Avdija; on-court net rating carries the teammates with it, so read it next to PIE.

On the books for 2026-27: Avdija $13.1M through 2027-28, Powell $21.5M through 2027-28. Whether either fits a trade is a Trade Machine question, not a stat one.
