Where the gap is

from the numbers above

Keyonte George scored more in 2025-26, 3.5 points a game apart (23.6 vs 20.1), on George's heavier usage (27.5% vs 22.4%).

Efficiency is a wash: true shooting within a point of each other (60.7% vs 60.9%).

Playmaking goes to George (6.1 vs 4.1 assists), the glass to Bane (4.1 vs 3.7 rebounds).

Availability is part of the comparison: Bane played 28 more games (82 vs 54 of 82).

With Bane on the floor his team outscored opponents by +2.2 per 100 possessions, against -8.6 for George; on-court net rating carries the teammates with it, so read it next to PIE.

On the books for 2026-27: Bane $39.4M through 2028-29, George $6.6M through 2031-32. Whether either fits a trade is a Trade Machine question, not a stat one.
