Where the gap is

from the numbers above

Jerami Grant scored more in 2025-26, 1.3 points a game apart (18.6 vs 17.3), on George's heavier usage (22.9% vs 22.8%).

Grant is the more efficient scorer by true shooting, 60.8% to 57.0%; TS% folds threes and free throws into one number, so the gap survives shot-diet differences.

Playmaking goes to George (3.6 vs 2.1 assists), the glass to George (5.3 vs 3.5 rebounds).

Availability is part of the comparison: Grant played 20 more games (57 vs 37 of 82).

With George on the floor his team outscored opponents by +3.6 per 100 possessions, against -0.3 for Grant; on-court net rating carries the teammates with it, so read it next to PIE.

On the books for 2026-27: Grant $34.2M through 2027-28, George $54.1M through 2027-28. Whether either fits a trade is a Trade Machine question, not a stat one.
