Where the gap is

from the numbers above

Kawhi Leonard scored more in 2025-26, 2.9 points a game apart (27.9 vs 25.0), on Leonard's heavier usage (32.6% vs 31.6%).

Efficiency is a wash: true shooting within a point of each other (62.9% vs 62.6%).

Playmaking goes to Leonard (3.6 vs 3.1 assists), the glass to Wembanyama (11.5 vs 6.4 rebounds).

With Wembanyama on the floor his team outscored opponents by +17.0 per 100 possessions, against +7.5 for Leonard; on-court net rating carries the teammates with it, so read it next to PIE.

On the books for 2026-27: Leonard $50.3M through 2026-27, Wembanyama $16.9M through 2031-32. Whether either fits a trade is a Trade Machine question, not a stat one.
