Where the gap is

from the numbers above

Dyson Daniels scored more in 2025-26, 0.2 points a game apart (11.9 vs 11.7), on Thompson's heavier usage (21.4% vs 15.7%).

Efficiency is a wash: true shooting within a point of each other (54.2% vs 54.1%).

Playmaking goes to Daniels (5.9 vs 1.4 assists), the glass to Daniels (6.8 vs 2.1 rebounds).

With Daniels on the floor his team outscored opponents by +6.2 per 100 possessions, against -4.7 for Thompson; on-court net rating carries the teammates with it, so read it next to PIE.

On the books for 2026-27: Daniels $25.0M through 2029-30, Thompson $17.5M through 2027-28. Whether either fits a trade is a Trade Machine question, not a stat one.
