3 years agoToronto Raptors power forward/center Pascal Siakam dominated in all facets of Thursday's victory over Philadelphia, compiling a 37-point triple-double to lead his team. With Fred VanVleet (knee) sidelined, Siakam became the de facto floor general, compiling 12 of Toronto's 22 assists. He also snatched a team-high 11 boards, all while shooting 14-for-28 from the floor. Siakam has been on a tear to begin April, averaging 28.3 points and 10.5 rebounds, which would mark the first time in his career to average a double-double in a single month. If VanVleet remains sidelined Friday against the Rockets, Siakam could once again be thrust into a more significant all-around role.--Jesse Borek
