EDGE Analysis

Siakam received his first All-Star selection after being announced as an Eastern Conference starter on Thursday. The 25-year-old showcased why he deserved the nomination, especially at the end, sinking a three with 22 seconds remaining to cement Toronto another win. The fourth-year forward had been partially restricted since his Jan. 12 return from a groin injury but is now averaging 19 points and 56.6 percent shooting through his last four away games.
