Where the gap is

from the numbers above

Tyrese Maxey scored more in 2025-26, 1.7 points a game apart (28.3 vs 26.6), on Curry's heavier usage (30.8% vs 28.6%).

Curry is the more efficient scorer by true shooting, 63.7% to 58.8%; TS% folds threes and free throws into one number, so the gap survives shot-diet differences.

Playmaking goes to Maxey (6.6 vs 4.7 assists), the glass to Maxey (4.1 vs 3.6 rebounds).

Availability is part of the comparison: Maxey played 27 more games (70 vs 43 of 82).

With Curry on the floor his team outscored opponents by +2.8 per 100 possessions, against +1.5 for Maxey; on-court net rating carries the teammates with it, so read it next to PIE.

On the books for 2026-27: Curry $62.6M through 2026-27, Maxey $40.8M through 2028-29. Whether either fits a trade is a Trade Machine question, not a stat one.
