Where the gap is

from the numbers above

Josh Hart scored more in 2025-26, 0.2 points a game apart (12.0 vs 11.8), on Harper's heavier usage (21.1% vs 16.3%).

Hart is the more efficient scorer by true shooting, 61.2% to 57.4%; TS% folds threes and free throws into one number, so the gap survives shot-diet differences.

Playmaking goes to Hart (4.8 vs 3.9 assists), the glass to Hart (7.4 vs 3.4 rebounds).

With Harper on the floor his team outscored opponents by +9.5 per 100 possessions, against +5.5 for Hart; on-court net rating carries the teammates with it, so read it next to PIE.

On the books for 2026-27: Harper $13.0M through 2028-29, Hart $20.9M through 2027-28. Whether either fits a trade is a Trade Machine question, not a stat one.
