Pascal Siakam Collects Triple-Double Against Spurs
Pascal Siakam continued his tremendous start to the season with a triple-double against the San Antonio Spurs. The 28-year-old finished the game with 22 points, 10 rebounds, 11 assists and one steal while shooting 10-for-19 from the floor. That was only in 28 minutes of playing time as well. He's now in the top 14 for scoring, top 17 in rebounds and top seven in assists. He's been producing in fantasy closer to a second-round pick rather than his third-round ADP.

Pascal Siakam Available For Playoff Opener
Pascal Siakam (elbow) will be in the lineup for Game 1 against the Milwaukee Bucks on Saturday. The Cameroonian star played in only two of the last five regular-season games while managing a right elbow injury. It appears that Siakam is back at 100 percent before the start of the postseason, as the team has not included him on its injury report. Siakam averaged 20.2 points per game with a career-high 38.9 percent three-point shooting during the regular season. He even improved his productivity in meetings with Giannis Antetokounmpo and the Bucks, posting 24.0 points, 8.5 rebounds, and 3.0 assists per game.

Pascal Siakam Out Versus Cleveland
Pascal Siakam (elbow) won't play on Sunday against Cleveland. He didn't suit up for Friday's loss to the Magic. As a result, Obi Toppin entered the starting lineup. Unfortunately, he struggled, ending the night with only four points. With Andrew Nembhard and Aaron Nesmith off the injury report, it's unknown if Toppin will remain with the first five. However, if he does stay in the starting lineup, there's a good chance he'll play better this time around.

Pascal Siakam Won't Play Against Orlando
Pascal Siakam (elbow) won't play on Friday against Orlando. The former Raptor had 10 points and eight boards in Thursday's win over the Cavs. However, the Pacers are locked into a playoff spot, so Siakam, Tyrese Haliburton (back), Aaron Nesmith (rest), Andrew Nembhard (thumb), and Myles Turner (knee) also won't suit up. Obi Toppin, averaging 28 points and seven rebounds in two starts this season, will likely fill the void at the four spot.
