Where the gap is

from the numbers above

Derrick Jones Jr. scored more in 2025-26, 0.2 points a game apart (10.1 vs 9.9), on Barnes's heavier usage (14.4% vs 14.4%).

Efficiency is a wash: true shooting within a point of each other (60.0% vs 60.8%).

Playmaking goes to Barnes (1.9 vs 1.4 assists), the glass to Jones Jr. (3.5 vs 2.8 rebounds).

Availability is part of the comparison: Barnes played 27 more games (77 vs 50 of 82).

With Barnes on the floor his team outscored opponents by +7.8 per 100 possessions, against +4.0 for Jones Jr.; on-court net rating carries the teammates with it, so read it next to PIE.

On the books for 2026-27: Jones Jr. $10.5M through 2026-27, Barnes $8.0M through 2026-27. Whether either fits a trade is a Trade Machine question, not a stat one.
