Where the gap is

from the numbers above

Javonte Green scored more in 2025-26, 0.2 points a game apart (6.9 vs 6.7), on Green's heavier usage (14.3% vs 12.9%).

Green is the more efficient scorer by true shooting, 60.7% to 57.9%; TS% folds threes and free throws into one number, so the gap survives shot-diet differences.

Playmaking goes to Ellis (1.0 vs 0.7 assists), the glass to Green (2.8 vs 1.9 rebounds).

Availability is part of the comparison: Green played 10 more games (82 vs 72 of 82).

With Green on the floor his team outscored opponents by +7.6 per 100 possessions, against -4.8 for Ellis; on-court net rating carries the teammates with it, so read it next to PIE.

On the books for 2026-27: Green $3.9M through 2026-27, Ellis $8.8M through 2027-28. Whether either fits a trade is a Trade Machine question, not a stat one.
