Where the gap is

from the numbers above

Marcus Smart scored more in 2025-26, 0.0 points a game apart (9.3 vs 9.3), on Smart's heavier usage (15.1% vs 15.1%).

Shamet is the more efficient scorer by true shooting, 59.8% to 54.3%; TS% folds threes and free throws into one number, so the gap survives shot-diet differences.

Playmaking goes to Smart (3.0 vs 1.4 assists), the glass to Smart (2.8 vs 1.8 rebounds).

Availability is part of the comparison: Smart played 11 more games (62 vs 51 of 82).

With Shamet on the floor his team outscored opponents by +8.1 per 100 possessions, against +6.8 for Smart; on-court net rating carries the teammates with it, so read it next to PIE.

On the books for 2026-27: Shamet $5.4M through 2029-30, Smart $6.1M through 2027-28. Whether either fits a trade is a Trade Machine question, not a stat one.
