Where the gap is

from the numbers above

GG Jackson scored more in 2025-26, 0.3 points a game apart (12.5 vs 12.2), on Jackson's heavier usage (23.0% vs 22.6%).

Jackson is the more efficient scorer by true shooting, 59.1% to 55.7%; TS% folds threes and free throws into one number, so the gap survives shot-diet differences.

Playmaking goes to Kuminga (2.3 vs 1.5 assists), the glass to Kuminga (5.6 vs 4.3 rebounds).

Availability is part of the comparison: Jackson played 19 more games (55 vs 36 of 82).

With Kuminga on the floor his team outscored opponents by +4.1 per 100 possessions, against -3.5 for Jackson; on-court net rating carries the teammates with it, so read it next to PIE.

On the books for 2026-27: Jackson — through —, Kuminga $6.1M through 2027-28. Whether either fits a trade is a Trade Machine question, not a stat one.
