Where the gap is

from the numbers above

Sellers is the more efficient scorer by true shooting, 50.5% to 42.1%; TS% folds threes and free throws into one number, so the gap survives shot-diet differences.

Playmaking goes to Ellis (1.8 vs 1.0 assists), the glass to Ellis (1.8 vs 0.8 rebounds).

With Sellers on the floor his team outscored opponents by -9.0 per 100 possessions, against -11.6 for Ellis; on-court net rating carries the teammates with it, so read it next to PIE.

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