Where the gap is

from the numbers above

Jaren Jackson Jr. scored more in 2025-26, 0.1 points a game apart (19.4 vs 19.3), on Barrett's heavier usage (25.4% vs 25.3%).

Efficiency is a wash: true shooting within a point of each other (57.6% vs 58.5%).

Playmaking goes to Barrett (3.3 vs 2.0 assists), the glass to Jackson Jr. (5.7 vs 5.3 rebounds).

Availability is part of the comparison: Barrett played 9 more games (57 vs 48 of 82).

With Barrett on the floor his team outscored opponents by +4.9 per 100 possessions, against -2.0 for Jackson Jr.; on-court net rating carries the teammates with it, so read it next to PIE.

On the books for 2026-27: Jackson Jr. $49.0M through 2029-30, Barrett $29.6M through 2026-27. Whether either fits a trade is a Trade Machine question, not a stat one.
