Where the gap is

from the numbers above

Jamaree Bouyea scored more in 2025-26, 0.1 points a game apart (5.7 vs 5.6), on Bouyea's heavier usage (18.4% vs 14.2%).

Efficiency is a wash: true shooting within a point of each other (53.2% vs 52.3%).

Playmaking goes to Smith (2.6 vs 1.8 assists), the glass to Smith (2.5 vs 1.8 rebounds).

Availability is part of the comparison: Smith played 24 more games (70 vs 46 of 82).

With Bouyea on the floor his team outscored opponents by +1.4 per 100 possessions, against -3.2 for Smith; on-court net rating carries the teammates with it, so read it next to PIE.

On the books for 2026-27: Smith $2.6M through 2027-28, Bouyea $2.6M through 2026-27. Whether either fits a trade is a Trade Machine question, not a stat one.
