Siakam helps Pacers rally in his Toronto return

TORONTO – Pascal Siakam has nothing but love and respect for the people of Toronto and the Raptors players and staff who he used to work with.

But there was no way he was leaving Toronto without a win.

Siakam had 23 points to lead his Indiana Pacers past the Raptors 127-125 on Wednesday in his first game against his former team since being traded away last month. The 29-year-old Siakam was celebrated all day but, in the back of his head, he knew what he had to do.

“You don’t want to come in and lose and it was a thing on my mind,” said Siakam with a grin. “When everyone was telling me like, ‘Oh, man, I’m so happy to see you’ in my head I’m just like ‘I’ve got to get a win. I can’t lose this game.’”
