4 years agoToronto Raptors power forward Pascal Siakam (rest) will be held out of Saturday's game versus the Cavaliers due to rest purposes. The move comes ahead of the Raptors being scheduled for four games in five days, with the following three all against teams with better records than Cleveland. Siakam has been in a tremendous offensive rhythm over his last four games, averaging 28 PPG while shooting 52.3 percent overall. Stanley Johnson will likely see an increased minutes allotment without Siakam in the mix, while Chris Boucher -- coming off of a 38-point showing -- stands to see an elevated offensive role. Fantasy managers can expect Siakam to return with no restrictions Sunday against New York.--Jesse Borek
