Obviously there is a massive gap in future expectations. Age. Potential. You name it.
But just comparing the past year that is already in the books. Thanks!

Wiggins, easily.
Wiggins was an elite finisher at the rim last season shooting 67% from 0-3. Covington wasn't elite at anything.
Wiggins played over 1000 more minutes than Covington, which you can't just ignore.
After Wiggins slow start to the season, he put together a monster stretch of 56 games where he had 19/5/2.5 with 45 FG%.
Covington's numbers regressed once he lost MCW to numbers uncomparable to Wiggins numbers; shooting 40 FG% and an average game-score of 9.5.

Per minute - probably Covington. Surprisingly even in scoring volume, more efficient and appears to have had better defensive year judging by the on/off and being a quality ball thief. Case can be made for Wiggins playing more giving him credit as with Mirotic
