Where the gap is

from the numbers above

Williams is the more efficient scorer by true shooting, 57.9% to 55.8%; TS% folds threes and free throws into one number, so the gap survives shot-diet differences.

Playmaking goes to Achiuwa (1.4 vs 1.1 assists), the glass to Achiuwa (6.7 vs 2.4 rebounds).

Availability is part of the comparison: Achiuwa played 17 more games (73 vs 56 of 82).

With Achiuwa on the floor his team outscored opponents by -7.2 per 100 possessions, against -10.1 for Williams; on-court net rating carries the teammates with it, so read it next to PIE.

On the books for 2026-27: Achiuwa $5.5M through 2027-28, Williams $2.4M through 2026-27. Whether either fits a trade is a Trade Machine question, not a stat one.
