Siakam is questionable for Wednesday's game against the Clippers due to back spasms, Josh Lewenberg of TSN.ca reports.

EDGE Analysis

Siakam was a late addition to the injury report, which is usually a bad sign. Presumably, Siakam will warm up before a decision is made on his status. With Jakob Poeltl (ankle) already sidelined, the Raptors will need guys like Thaddeus Young, Chris Boucher and Jontay Porter to step up if Siakam is unavailable.

EDGE Analysis

Scottie Barnes and Immanuel Quickley carried the Raptors to victory Wednesday, but Siakam's contributions can't go overlooked, as he was efficient from the field and also made his presence felt on the glass. The star forward has been playing well of late and has scored at least 20 points in his last five games, a span in which he's averaging 28.8 points per game while shooting 60.4 percent from the floor.

EDGE Analysis

Siakam scored a game-high 35 points and was always there when the Raptors needed him to put up a fight down the stretch, but his efforts were not enough to complete a fourth-quarter comeback. Siakam has been playing very well in recent weeks and averaged 24.8 points, 5.8 rebounds and 5.2 assists per game across 13 December appearances.

EDGE Analysis

While Scottie Barnes lined up at point guard to begin the night, it was Siakam who wound up leading the Raptors in assists as he put together just his fifth double-double of the season. The 11 dimes were a season high for the veteran forward, and through 11 games in December, Siakam is averaging 23.7 points, 6.0 boards, 5.4 assists, 0.9 threes and 0.9 steals while shooting 55.8 percent from the floor.

Siakam didn't have his best shooting performance and needed 20 shots to score 19 points, but he also delivered decent numbers in other categories. Siakam is averaging 21.3 points, 6.7 rebounds and 5.0 assists per game this season while shooting above 50 percent from the field -- the latter is a mark he hadn't achieved since the 2018-19 campaign.
