Where the gap is

from the numbers above

Victor Wembanyama scored more in 2025-26, 4.9 points a game apart (25.0 vs 20.1), on Wembanyama's heavier usage (31.6% vs 25.1%).

Efficiency is a wash: true shooting within a point of each other (61.9% vs 62.6%).

Playmaking goes to Wembanyama (3.1 vs 3.0 assists), the glass to Towns (11.9 vs 11.5 rebounds).

Availability is part of the comparison: Towns played 11 more games (75 vs 64 of 82).

With Wembanyama on the floor his team outscored opponents by +17.0 per 100 possessions, against +7.0 for Towns; on-court net rating carries the teammates with it, so read it next to PIE.

On the books for 2026-27: Towns $57.1M through 2027-28, Wembanyama $16.9M through 2031-32. Whether either fits a trade is a Trade Machine question, not a stat one.
