Where the gap is

from the numbers above

Michael Porter Jr. scored more in 2025-26, 0.6 points a game apart (24.2 vs 23.6), on Porter Jr.'s heavier usage (29.2% vs 27.5%).

George is the more efficient scorer by true shooting, 60.9% to 59.5%; TS% folds threes and free throws into one number, so the gap survives shot-diet differences.

Playmaking goes to George (6.1 vs 3.0 assists), the glass to Porter Jr. (7.1 vs 3.7 rebounds).

With Porter Jr. on the floor his team outscored opponents by -6.6 per 100 possessions, against -8.6 for George; on-court net rating carries the teammates with it, so read it next to PIE.

On the books for 2026-27: George $6.6M through 2026-27, Porter Jr. $40.8M through 2026-27. Whether either fits a trade is a Trade Machine question, not a stat one.
