Where the gap is

from the numbers above

Nolan Traore scored more in 2025-26, 0.2 points a game apart (8.9 vs 8.7), on Traore's heavier usage (22.4% vs 16.7%).

Goodwin is the more efficient scorer by true shooting, 52.5% to 47.9%; TS% folds threes and free throws into one number, so the gap survives shot-diet differences.

Playmaking goes to Traore (3.8 vs 2.2 assists), the glass to Goodwin (4.9 vs 1.8 rebounds).

Availability is part of the comparison: Goodwin played 14 more games (70 vs 56 of 82).

With Goodwin on the floor his team outscored opponents by +3.3 per 100 possessions, against -10.5 for Traore; on-court net rating carries the teammates with it, so read it next to PIE.

On the books for 2026-27: Goodwin $5.9M through 2028-29, Traore $4.0M through 2028-29. Whether either fits a trade is a Trade Machine question, not a stat one.
