Pascal Siakam Goes For 26 Points Against Blazers
Pascal Siakam went for 26 points, eight rebounds, and two assists in 39 minutes during Sunday's loss to Portland. The 26-year-old has been averaging 20.1 points per game this season but has posted at least 26 points in four of the past six games, which is fantastic. Siakam's role on this team is decent and his production this season has been consistent for the most part, making him a great fantasy option. Up next is a great matchup on Monday against a Pistons defense that is average.

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.

Pascal Siakam Slated To Suit Up Against Wizards
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.
