Where the gap is

from the numbers above

Max Strus scored more in 2025-26, 0.4 points a game apart (11.2 vs 10.8), on Schroder's heavier usage (21.0% vs 17.0%).

Strus is the more efficient scorer by true shooting, 60.9% to 52.6%; TS% folds threes and free throws into one number, so the gap survives shot-diet differences.

Playmaking goes to Schroder (4.9 vs 2.0 assists), the glass to Strus (5.4 vs 2.7 rebounds).

Availability is part of the comparison: Schroder played 58 more games (70 vs 12 of 82).

With Strus on the floor his team outscored opponents by +0.3 per 100 possessions, against -6.2 for Schroder; on-court net rating carries the teammates with it, so read it next to PIE.

On the books for 2026-27: Schroder $14.8M through 2027-28, Strus $16.7M through 2026-27. Whether either fits a trade is a Trade Machine question, not a stat one.
