Where the gap is

from the numbers above

Jaylen Wells scored more in 2025-26, 0.3 points a game apart (12.5 vs 12.2), on Wells's heavier usage (18.9% vs 15.2%).

Robinson is the more efficient scorer by true shooting, 62.9% to 55.9%; TS% folds threes and free throws into one number, so the gap survives shot-diet differences.

Playmaking goes to Robinson (2.1 vs 1.6 assists), the glass to Wells (3.2 vs 2.7 rebounds).

Availability is part of the comparison: Robinson played 8 more games (77 vs 69 of 82).

With Robinson on the floor his team outscored opponents by +11.3 per 100 possessions, against -4.4 for Wells; on-court net rating carries the teammates with it, so read it next to PIE.

On the books for 2026-27: Robinson $16.0M through 2027-28, Wells $2.3M through 2027-28. Whether either fits a trade is a Trade Machine question, not a stat one.
