Where the gap is

from the numbers above

Devin Booker scored more in 2025-26, 1.9 points a game apart (26.1 vs 24.2), on Booker's heavier usage (30.7% vs 29.2%).

Porter Jr. is the more efficient scorer by true shooting, 59.5% to 58.5%; TS% folds threes and free throws into one number, so the gap survives shot-diet differences.

Playmaking goes to Booker (6.0 vs 3.0 assists), the glass to Porter Jr. (7.1 vs 3.9 rebounds).

Availability is part of the comparison: Booker played 12 more games (64 vs 52 of 82).

With Booker on the floor his team outscored opponents by +3.9 per 100 possessions, against -6.6 for Porter Jr.; on-court net rating carries the teammates with it, so read it next to PIE.

On the books for 2026-27: Booker $57.1M through 2029-30, Porter Jr. $40.8M through 2026-27. Whether either fits a trade is a Trade Machine question, not a stat one.
