Alperen Şengün's estimated impact per 100 possessions was +2.1, compared with +1.9 for Franz Wagner. This compares their impact while playing, not their total contribution across the season. Both players are compared in the 2025–26 season using its published Impact Rate. A ranked comparison requires at least 450 minutes for each player.
Alperen Şengün: 72 games and 2,398 minutes. Franz Wagner: 34 games and 1,019 minutes. Playing time matters when judging the whole season; the impact estimate above is a rate, not a season total.
Franz Wagner ended a larger share of his team’s possessions, so the turnover rates are not an equal-workload comparison. Offensive usage measures the share of team plays a player ends with a shot, free throws, or a turnover while on the court—not every touch, pass, or act of playmaking. These rows provide context; they are not extra points added to the ranking.
Regular season only. Impact figures are estimates; small gaps are not exact. Playoffs, awards and titles do not determine the verdict.
Behind the estimate
Why the model rates them this way
The model starts with each player’s recorded individual stats, then adjusts that estimate using lineup results. The first two rows add up to the final estimate. All figures are points per 100 possessions.
Alperen ŞengünMetricFranz Wagner
+2.03LeadsFrom recorded individual stats+1.31
+0.10Adjustment from recent lineup results+0.57Leads
+2.13LeadsFinal estimated impact+1.88
Lineup evidence: Alperen Şengün — 3 seasons; Franz Wagner — 3 seasons. This adjustment is not necessarily based on the selected season alone.
Offensive and defensive lineup estimates for the selected season
These selected-season estimates account for who played alongside and against each player. Positive means better than average; a positive defensive figure means fewer points allowed. They are separate estimates—not additional points added to the calculation above. They do not measure how much individual teammates improved.

+1.48LeadsAdjusted offensive impact+1.16
-1.97Adjusted defensive impact+0.22Leads
What this does not establish: these figures do not prove that either player made his teammates shoot better. A verified teammate-shooting comparison is unavailable for this selected season. A small difference in the estimates is not a decisive basketball distinction.

3 · Individual skills
Where does each player have an advantage?
These figures describe the selected regular seasons. They provide context, not extra points added to the verdict. Green marks the better result for a metric, including lower turnover rates. Workload and shot-selection measures stay neutral. These rows are not votes toward the ranking.
