Where the gap is

from the numbers above

Devin Vassell scored more in 2025-26, 0.1 points a game apart (13.9 vs 13.8), on Suggs's heavier usage (22.0% vs 17.6%).

Vassell is the more efficient scorer by true shooting, 57.4% to 56.1%; TS% folds threes and free throws into one number, so the gap survives shot-diet differences.

Playmaking goes to Suggs (5.5 vs 2.5 assists), the glass to Vassell (4.0 vs 3.9 rebounds).

Availability is part of the comparison: Vassell played 10 more games (67 vs 57 of 82).

With Vassell on the floor his team outscored opponents by +11.4 per 100 possessions, against +5.2 for Suggs; on-court net rating carries the teammates with it, so read it next to PIE.

On the books for 2026-27: Vassell $27.0M through 2028-29, Suggs $32.4M through 2029-30. Whether either fits a trade is a Trade Machine question, not a stat one.
