Where the gap is

from the numbers above

Pascal Siakam scored more in 2025-26, 2.3 points a game apart (24.0 vs 21.7), on Siakam's heavier usage (29.2% vs 26.2%).

Powell is the more efficient scorer by true shooting, 60.9% to 56.2%; TS% folds threes and free throws into one number, so the gap survives shot-diet differences.

Playmaking goes to Siakam (3.8 vs 2.5 assists), the glass to Siakam (6.6 vs 3.5 rebounds).

With Powell on the floor his team outscored opponents by +0.6 per 100 possessions, against -5.6 for Siakam; on-court net rating carries the teammates with it, so read it next to PIE.

On the books for 2026-27: Powell $21.5M through 2027-28, Siakam $48.9M through 2027-28. Whether either fits a trade is a Trade Machine question, not a stat one.
