Where the gap is

from the numbers above

Khris Middleton scored more in 2025-26, 0.2 points a game apart (10.2 vs 10.0), on Middleton's heavier usage (19.8% vs 16.4%).

Stewart is the more efficient scorer by true shooting, 63.2% to 53.3%; TS% folds threes and free throws into one number, so the gap survives shot-diet differences.

Playmaking goes to Middleton (2.8 vs 1.1 assists), the glass to Stewart (5.0 vs 3.7 rebounds).

With Stewart on the floor his team outscored opponents by +1.8 per 100 possessions, against -11.1 for Middleton; on-court net rating carries the teammates with it, so read it next to PIE.

On the books for 2026-27: Stewart $15.0M through 2027-28, Middleton $5.6M through 2028-29. Whether either fits a trade is a Trade Machine question, not a stat one.
