Where the gap is

from the numbers above

Onyeka Okongwu scored more in 2025-26, 0.4 points a game apart (15.2 vs 14.8), on George's heavier usage (22.2% vs 18.9%).

Okongwu 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 3.1 assists), the glass to Okongwu (7.6 vs 5.1 rebounds).

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

With Okongwu on the floor his team outscored opponents by +2.1 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, Okongwu $16.1M through 2027-28. Whether either fits a trade is a Trade Machine question, not a stat one.
