Where the gap is

from the numbers above

Ryan Dunn scored more in 2025-26, 0.0 points a game apart (5.8 vs 5.8), on Tomlin's heavier usage (15.1% vs 13.6%).

Tomlin is the more efficient scorer by true shooting, 54.9% to 53.2%; TS% folds threes and free throws into one number, so the gap survives shot-diet differences.

Playmaking goes to Dunn (1.5 vs 0.8 assists), the glass to Dunn (4.2 vs 2.9 rebounds).

With Tomlin on the floor his team outscored opponents by +3.6 per 100 possessions, against +1.7 for Dunn; on-court net rating carries the teammates with it, so read it next to PIE.

On the books for 2026-27: Tomlin $2.4M through 2026-27, Dunn $2.8M through 2027-28. Whether either fits a trade is a Trade Machine question, not a stat one.
