Where the gap is

from the numbers above

Kris Murray scored more in 2025-26, 0.1 points a game apart (5.8 vs 5.7), on Matković's heavier usage (12.8% vs 10.3%).

Matković is the more efficient scorer by true shooting, 69.6% to 55.0%; TS% folds threes and free throws into one number, so the gap survives shot-diet differences.

Playmaking goes to Murray (1.4 vs 0.8 assists), the glass to Matković (3.7 vs 3.6 rebounds).

With Murray on the floor his team outscored opponents by +1.5 per 100 possessions, against -4.4 for Matković; on-court net rating carries the teammates with it, so read it next to PIE.

On the books for 2026-27: Matković $2.3M through 2026-27, Murray $5.3M through 2026-27. Whether either fits a trade is a Trade Machine question, not a stat one.
