Analysts from real estate firm Cushman & Wakefield recently released a report with lots of facts and figures for US ports.
That included the graphic below from the report, which offers a graphical view of the market share of the 11 largest US ports by containers handled through the 1H of 2022. Why the top 11 instead of top 10 SCDigest doesn't know, but it's an interesting chart nonethless:

While the Port of Los Angeles’ market share has declined modestly since the close of 2021 (20.2%) to 19.6%, the Ports of Long Beach and NY/NJ each saw their market share climb 0.4% and 0.7%, respectively, over the same period to 18.1% and 17.7%.
West Coast ports accounted for 48.6% of cargo volume handled during the first half of 2022, down from 49.6% at year-end 2021. The decline was partially due to the diversion of cargo to East Coast and Gulf ports due to fears of slowdowns or work stoppages at West Coast ports.
