Where the gap is

from the numbers above

Tyrese Maxey scored more in 2025-26, 4.1 points a game apart (28.3 vs 24.2), on Maxey's heavier usage (28.6% vs 28.5%).

Avdija is the more efficient scorer by true shooting, 60.0% to 58.8%; TS% folds threes and free throws into one number, so the gap survives shot-diet differences.

Playmaking goes to Avdija (6.7 vs 6.6 assists), the glass to Avdija (6.9 vs 4.1 rebounds).

With Maxey on the floor his team outscored opponents by +1.5 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, Maxey $40.8M through 2028-29. Whether either fits a trade is a Trade Machine question, not a stat one.
