Siakam mustered 21 points (8-17 FG, 3-6 3Pt, 2-5 FT), six rebounds, two assists, one block and one steal in 34 minutes during Sunday's 119-104 loss to Golden State.
EDGE Analysis
Siakam stayed hot in Sunday's loss and was the only player to record 20-plus points for the Raptors. The 27-year-old has scored at least 20 points in four of the last five games, and he's averaged 20.4 points, 7.0 rebounds and 4.2 assists in 33.8 minutes per contest during that time.

Siakam recorded 32 points (10-12 FG, 3-3 3Pt, 9-10 FT), eight rebounds, one assist and two blocks across 30 minutes during Friday's 108-89 win over the Kings.
EDGE Analysis
Siakam bounced back after a poor performance in the Raptors' previous game, delivering fantasy managers what was well and truly his best performance thus far. The efficiency was back, both from the floor and the charity stripe, erasing memories from just 48 hours prior. He is still early in terms of his return to action, so there are going to be a few bumps in the road. With that being said, he should be able to keep the arrow pointing in the right direction moving forward, making him a valuable asset in every format.

Siakam recorded 20 points (7-15 FG, 2-6 3Pt, 4-4 FT), six rebounds, six assists and one block across 39 minutes during Monday's 118-113 loss to the Trail Blazers.
EDGE Analysis
It's understandable that Siakam took a few games to get his legs under him after missing Toronto's first 10 contests this season -- in his first two games back, he averaged just 11.5 points on 42.1 percent shooting. The forward has been considerably better over his subsequent pair of contests, posting per-game averages of 22.5 points, 9.0 boards and 6.5 dimes. He has also played at least 35 minutes in each of those contests, so it looks like Siakam has shed his minutes limit and is ready to roll without restrictions.

Siakam ended Saturday's 127-121 loss to the Pistons with 25 points (9-14 FG, 2-3 3Pt, 5-9 FT), 12 rebounds, seven assists and one steal over 35 minutes.
EDGE Analysis
Siakam was thought to be on a soft minutes limit, but that wasn't noticeable considering he logged 35 minutes while ending just three assists away from a triple-double. The versatile big man has seen his minutes ramp up with each passing game, and his upside should only increase as the minutes restriction disappears while the season progresses.

Siakam is starting Saturday against the Pistons, Doug Smith of the Toronto Star reports. He remains on a minutes limit.
EDGE Analysis
Siakam played 30 minutes in his latest appearance, so the minutes limit appears to be pretty loose. Still, don't expect him to see 35-plus minutes even if the game goes into overtime.

Siakam (rest) has been ruled out for Thursday's game against the 76ers, Ryan Wolstat of the Toronto Sun reports.
EDGE Analysis
Siakam logged eight points and seven rebounds in 30 minutes during Wednesday's loss to Boston, and he'll get a breather for the second half of the back-to-back set. Precious Achiuwa and Chris Boucher should see increased playing time Thursday.

Coach Nick Nurse said after Wednesday's loss to the Celtics that he doesn't expect Siakam (rest) to play the second half of the back-to-back set Thursday against the 76ers, Josh Lewenberg of TSN.ca reports.
EDGE Analysis
Wednesday's contest was Siakam's second of the season after he missed the start of the campaign while recovering from offseason surgery, so it's not a major surprise he won't immediately be playing in both ends of a back-to-back set. The 27-year-old had a quiet showing in Boston with eight points (3-7 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 2-2 FT), seven rebounds, three assists and two steals in 30 minutes.

Siakam will start at center in Wednesday's game against Boston, Eric Koreen of The Athletic reports.
EDGE Analysis
As expected, Siakam will remain in the lineup as he plays in his second game of the season after missing time while recovering from offseason surgery. In his debut against Brooklyn on Sunday, Siakam posted 15 points, four rebounds, two blocks and an assist in 25 minutes. Heading into a back-to-back, coach Nick Nurse called Siakam questionable for Thursday's game against the Sixers.

Coach Nick Nurse said Siakam will play Wednesday at Boston but is questionable for Thursday's game at Philadelphia, Josh Lewenberg of TSN.ca reports.
EDGE Analysis
Siakam saw his first action of the season Sunday after dealing with a shoulder injury to start the year. Nurse said the plan is for the 6-foot-9 forward is to play Wednesday in Boston, but his status for Thursday in Philadelphia is to be determined. If he is sidelined Thursday, then Scottie Barnes and Precious Achiuwa would likely see increased run against the Sixers.

Siakam turned in 15 points (5-12 FG, 1-3 3Pt, 4-5 FT), four rebounds, two blocked shots, an assist and a steal across 25 minutes in Sunday's 116-103 loss to the Nets.
EDGE Analysis
Siakam looked solid in his return to action. Fantasy managers should expect a restriction on Siakam's minutes for at least the next couple of games as he works his way back up to full speed. Although Precious Achiuwa and Scottie Barnes posted decent lines in the loss, it will be interesting to see what happens to their value as Siakam's minutes increase.
