Where the gap is

from the numbers above

Zeke Nnaji scored more in 2025-26, 0.1 points a game apart (3.7 vs 3.6), on Diawara's heavier usage (16.9% vs 13.6%).

Efficiency is a wash: true shooting within a point of each other (55.0% vs 55.8%).

Playmaking goes to Diawara (0.8 vs 0.6 assists), the glass to Nnaji (2.6 vs 1.4 rebounds).

Availability is part of the comparison: Diawara played 17 more games (69 vs 52 of 82).

With Diawara on the floor his team outscored opponents by +5.3 per 100 possessions, against -6.6 for Nnaji; on-court net rating carries the teammates with it, so read it next to PIE.

On the books for 2026-27: Diawara $2.2M through 2029-30, Nnaji $7.5M through 2027-28. Whether either fits a trade is a Trade Machine question, not a stat one.
