Where the gap is

from the numbers above

Ty Jerome scored more in 2025-26, 0.5 points a game apart (19.7 vs 19.2), on Jerome's heavier usage (33.2% vs 23.4%).

Efficiency is a wash: true shooting within a point of each other (61.6% vs 61.4%).

Playmaking goes to Jerome (5.7 vs 2.3 assists), the glass to LaVine (2.8 vs 2.8 rebounds).

Availability is part of the comparison: LaVine played 24 more games (39 vs 15 of 82).

With Jerome on the floor his team outscored opponents by -5.0 per 100 possessions, against -12.6 for LaVine; on-court net rating carries the teammates with it, so read it next to PIE.

On the books for 2026-27: Jerome $9.2M through 2027-28, LaVine $49.0M through 2026-27. Whether either fits a trade is a Trade Machine question, not a stat one.
