Where the gap is

from the numbers above

Naji Marshall scored more in 2025-26, 0.4 points a game apart (15.2 vs 14.8), on George's heavier usage (22.2% vs 20.0%).

Marshall is the more efficient scorer by true shooting, 59.2% to 55.9%; TS% folds threes and free throws into one number, so the gap survives shot-diet differences.

Playmaking goes to George (4.5 vs 3.3 assists), the glass to George (5.1 vs 4.7 rebounds).

Availability is part of the comparison: Marshall played 26 more games (74 vs 48 of 82).

With Marshall on the floor his team outscored opponents by -4.6 per 100 possessions, against -11.5 for George; on-court net rating carries the teammates with it, so read it next to PIE.

On the books for 2026-27: George $3.1M through 2027-28, Marshall $9.4M through 2029-30. Whether either fits a trade is a Trade Machine question, not a stat one.
