Where the gap is

from the numbers above

Jaylen Wells scored more in 2025-26, 0.3 points a game apart (12.5 vs 12.2), on Kuminga's heavier usage (22.6% vs 18.9%).

Efficiency is a wash: true shooting within a point of each other (55.9% vs 55.7%).

Playmaking goes to Kuminga (2.3 vs 1.6 assists), the glass to Kuminga (5.6 vs 3.2 rebounds).

Availability is part of the comparison: Wells played 33 more games (69 vs 36 of 82).

With Kuminga on the floor his team outscored opponents by +4.1 per 100 possessions, against -4.4 for Wells; on-court net rating carries the teammates with it, so read it next to PIE.

On the books for 2026-27: Wells $2.3M through 2027-28, Kuminga $6.1M through 2027-28. Whether either fits a trade is a Trade Machine question, not a stat one.
