Where the gap is

from the numbers above

Josh Green scored more in 2025-26, 0.1 points a game apart (4.3 vs 4.2), on Harper Jr.'s heavier usage (15.8% vs 10.4%).

Green is the more efficient scorer by true shooting, 64.4% to 55.0%; TS% folds threes and free throws into one number, so the gap survives shot-diet differences.

Playmaking goes to Harper Jr. (0.8 vs 0.8 assists), the glass to Green (1.8 vs 1.7 rebounds).

Availability is part of the comparison: Green played 29 more games (58 vs 29 of 82).

With Green on the floor his team outscored opponents by +12.5 per 100 possessions, against +2.7 for Harper Jr.; on-court net rating carries the teammates with it, so read it next to PIE.

On the books for 2026-27: Green $14.7M through 2026-27, Harper Jr. $3.2M through 2029-30. Whether either fits a trade is a Trade Machine question, not a stat one.
