Pascal Siakam Goes For 13 Points In Wednesday's Win
6 years agoToronto Raptors forward Pascal Siakam made the start against the Cleveland Cavaliers on Wednesday, posting 13 points while hitting 6-for-8 from the field and 1-for-1 from behind the three-point line in 20 minutes. Siakam was given the nod to start, but head coach Nick Nurse said he intends to vary his starting lineup on a regular basis, meaning Serge Ibaka, Jonas Valanciunas and Siakam could bounce back and forth between starting role and first off the bench. Siakam has a little bit of upside, especially if he continues to shoot the ball as well as he did Wednesday, but he isn't a must-start fantasy option by any means.

Pascal Siakam Won't Play Against Orlando
2 days agoIndiana Pacers forward 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.

Pascal Siakam Slated To Suit Up Against Wizards
5 days agoTony East of WTHR Channel 13 Indianapolis reports that Indiana Pacers forward/center Pascal Siakam (elbow) is available for Tuesday's matchup with the Washington Wizards. Siakam missed only his second game of the season on Sunday against the Denver Nuggets when he had to depart the lineup due to an elbow injury. The star forward has only scored 20 points once in his last seven outings. However, having Siakam return after a one-game absence should provide fantasy managers with a valuable asset for Tuesday's game.

Pascal Siakam Could Be Out For Second Straight Game
6 days agoIndiana Pacers forward/center Pascal Siakam (elbow) is questionable for Tuesday's game against the Washington Wizards. Siakam missed only his second game of the season on Sunday against the Denver Nuggets when he had to depart the lineup due to an elbow injury. Obi Toppin moved into the starting unit and had a big game with 22 points. He will likely keep hold of the spot if Siakam does not return on Tuesday. It's a juicy matchup against the league's weakest defense, so Toppin may do even better than his performance on Sunday.

Pascal Siakam Ruled Out On Sunday
1 week agoIndiana Pacers forward Pascal Siakam (elbow) will miss Sunday's matchup in Denver. He had a monster outing on Friday in Utah, finishing with 22 points, four blocks, and three steals. However, the former Raptor won't suit up because of right olecranon bursitis. As a result, Obi Toppin, who had 34 points and 10 rebounds in his only start of the year on March 17 (Siakam's last absence) is worth considering for fantasy purposes.
