Where the gap is

from the numbers above

Victor Wembanyama scored more in 2025-26, 4.0 points a game apart (25.0 vs 21.0), on Wembanyama's heavier usage (31.6% vs 25.0%).

Williamson is the more efficient scorer by true shooting, 64.4% to 62.6%; TS% folds threes and free throws into one number, so the gap survives shot-diet differences.

Playmaking goes to Williamson (3.2 vs 3.1 assists), the glass to Wembanyama (11.5 vs 5.7 rebounds).

With Wembanyama on the floor his team outscored opponents by +17.0 per 100 possessions, against -1.9 for Williamson; on-court net rating carries the teammates with it, so read it next to PIE.

On the books for 2026-27: Wembanyama $16.9M through 2031-32, Williamson $42.2M through 2027-28. Whether either fits a trade is a Trade Machine question, not a stat one.
