Where the gap is

from the numbers above

Moritz Wagner scored more in 2025-26, 0.4 points a game apart (6.9 vs 6.5), on Wagner's heavier usage (23.7% vs 12.0%).

Ighodaro is the more efficient scorer by true shooting, 63.6% to 54.5%; TS% folds threes and free throws into one number, so the gap survives shot-diet differences.

Playmaking goes to Ighodaro (2.3 vs 0.8 assists), the glass to Ighodaro (5.1 vs 3.2 rebounds).

Availability is part of the comparison: Ighodaro played 46 more games (82 vs 36 of 82).

With Ighodaro on the floor his team outscored opponents by +5.1 per 100 possessions, against -10.0 for Wagner; on-court net rating carries the teammates with it, so read it next to PIE.

On the books for 2026-27: Wagner $9.3M through 2027-28, Ighodaro $2.3M through 2027-28. Whether either fits a trade is a Trade Machine question, not a stat one.
