Siakam (knee) won't play Monday against the Pacers, Blake Murphy of The Athletic reports.

EDGE Analysis

The 26-year-old was a late scratch Sunday due to swelling in his left knee, and he'll be unavailable Monday after being listed as questionable. Stanley Johnson received the start in his place and should have an increased role again at Indiana. Siakam's next chance to play will be Wednesday versus the Bucks.

Siakam (knee) is listed as questionable for Monday's game against the Pacers, Blake Murphy of The Athletic reports.

EDGE Analysis

A knee issue prevented Siakam from playing in Sunday's win over the Pacers, but there's hope he could be back in the lineup on the second half of the back-to-back set. Siakam admitted that he has been plagued by the knee for several games, which may explain why he's gone five straight contests without reaching 20 points. In that span, Siakam is shooting just 40.0 percent from the floor, while going 3-of-21 from deep.

EDGE Analysis

The 26-year-old has recently been playing through a groin injury, but it's knee swelling that will prevent him from playing Sunday at Indiana. It's unclear if Siakam will be available for the second half of the back-to-back set Monday. Stanley Johnson and Yuta Watanabe should have increased roles for Toronto, which will also be without Kyle Lowry (toe).

Siakam registered 15 points (6-12 FG, 1-3 3Pt, 2-4 FT), 14 rebounds, five assists and a steal across 33 minutes in Friday's win over the Heat.

EDGE Analysis

Siakam has been battling through a groin issue recently -- skipping out on practice Thursday as a result -- but that stopped him from making a big impact on both ends of the court Friday while also dealing with Bam Adebayo throughout the game. Siakam has underperformed this season but seems to be turning things around of late -- he has four double-doubles over his last eight contests and is averaging 17.5 points and 9.6 rebounds per game over that stretch.

EDGE Analysis

Siakam has been battling through a groin issue recently -- skipping out on practice Thursday as a result -- but will apparently avoid missing game action because of it. He seems likely to assume his usual workload barring a setback.

Siakam (groin) is listed as questionable for Friday's game against the Heat.

EDGE Analysis

Siakam has been nursing a groin issue for the last several games, and while he's yet to miss any time, he was held out of practice Thursday. The Raptors will likely wait to see how he feels at shootaround Friday morning before updating his status.

Siakam (groin) did not practice Thursday and his status for Friday's game against the Heat is uncertain, Josh Lewenberg of TSN.ca reports.

EDGE Analysis

Siakam admitted after Wednesday's loss that he was affected by a groin injury during the loss, and he noted that the injury has been bothering him "for a little bit." An All-NBA selection last season, Siakam is having a down year, averaging about four fewer points per game and shooting only 43.9 percent from the field, 25.0 percent from three and 78.6 percent from the charity stripe. If Siakam sits Friday, more minutes would be available for Norman Powell, Stanley Johnson and Yuta Watanabe.

Siakam admitted after Wednesday's 111-102 loss to the Heat that he was affected by a groin injury during the contest, Eric Koreen of The Athletic reports. "My groin's been bothering me for a little bit, so that was definitely unfortunate," Siakam said.

EDGE Analysis

Siakam appeared to get banged up on a dunk attempt Wednesday, but he remained in the game and turned in a serviceable line of 18 points (7-15 FG, 0-3 3Pt, 4-4 FT), six rebounds, two assists and one steal in 36 minutes. Head coach Nick Nurse insisted after the contest that Siakam was fine, so at this stage, he can likely be viewed as probable for Friday's game against the Heat. Siakam notably missed 11 games in 2019-20 due to a groin issue, so it's less than ideal that he's bothered by the same injury, even if it's only a mild concern.

Siakam scored 18 points (7-15 FG, 0-3 3PT, 4-4 FT) to go along with six rebonds, two assists and one steal across 37 minutes in Wednesday's loss to the Heat.

EDGE Analysis

Siakam was once again empty from three-point range and is now 0-12 from deep across his last three contests. He was able to score well in the paint and near the basket to still salvage a solid line otherwise, though his per game averages continue to lag behind last season's career-best numbers. On the positive side, Siakam has shown improved passing ability, as he failed to top four assists for the first time in four games.

Siakam had 19 points (7-19 FG, 0-4 3Pt, 5-5 FT), three rebounds and five assists across 34 minutes during Monday's 116-93 win over the Mavericks.

EDGE Analysis

Siakam shot 40.0 percent or worse from the field for the third game in a row, but it didn't matter as the team still easily strolled past Dallas. This also marked just the third time this season Siakam has failed to register a single steal or assist. Siakam's overall play has dipped a bit from his All-Star campaign in 2019-20, but on the bright side he is averaging a career high 4.9 assists per game across 12 contests.
