Siakam totaled 24 points (8-16 FG, 3-5 3Pt, 5-6 FT), six rebounds, four assists and a block across 32 minutes in the Raptors' win over the Magic on Tuesday.
EDGE Analysis
It was another big night for Siakam, who had an extraordinary first-round performance after a breakout regular season. He scored at least 24 points in three of five games against Orlando and pulled down at least nine boards three times. He'll try to keep the momentum going in the Conference Semifinals, where Toronto will face either Philadelphia or Brooklyn.

Siakam furnished 16 points (7-14 FG, 2-6 3Pt), six rebounds, two assists and one block across 36 minutes during the Raptors' 107-85 win over the Magic in Game 4 of their Eastern Conference first-round playoff series Sunday.
EDGE Analysis
Siakam continued his excellent play in the series, keeping his streak of at least 50.0 percent shooting alive for an eighth straight game dating back to April 3. The emerging big man has proven an indispensable source of complementary scoring alongside the exploits of Kawhi Leonard, and he's also substantiated his ability to spearhead the offense when necessary, with his 30-point effort in Game 3 serving as the latest example.

EDGE Analysis
Siakam led all scorers in Friday's win, coming up with a big double-double to propel his team to victory. He's been ultra-productive in the first round of the playoffs, averaging 24.3 points, 10.0 rebounds and 3.0 assists over the first three games.

Siakam totaled 19 points (8-16 FG, 0-3 3Pt, 3-3 FT), 10 rebounds and an assist across 37 minutes in the Raptors' win over the Magic on Tuesday.
EDGE Analysis
Siakam was at it once again, proving to be a key piece of the Raptors' starting lineup and posting a double-double in Tuesday's win. He's a strong candidate for Most Improved Player with his breakout regular season, and it seems he's carried that newfound production into the playoffs.

Siakam totaled 24 points (12-24 FG, 0-4 3Pt), nine rebounds, four assists, two blocks and a steal over 42 minutes in the Raptors' loss to the Magic on Saturday.
EDGE Analysis
The Raptors suffered an ugly home loss on Saturday, though it had nothing to do with Siakam's strong play. Siakam displayed his skills on both ends of the court, and he'll be key to the Raptors' playoff success.

Siakam recorded 23 points (8-10 FG, 3-5 3Pt, 4-4 FT), 10 rebounds and one assist across 37 minutes in Sunday's 117-109 win over the Heat.
EDGE Analysis
Siakam was highly efficient Sunday, shooting 80 percent from the floor, 60 percent from three, and making all of his shots from the charity stripe. Those shooting percentages, along with his double-digit rebound total, is something Siakam will look to sustain in the postseason for a potential run.

Siakam scored a game-high 28 points (11-21 FG, 3-7 3Pt, 3-4 FT) while adding 10 rebounds and five assists in 36 minutes during Wednesday's 115-105 win over the Nets.
EDGE Analysis
It's his 17th double-double of the season. Siakam was coming off his worst performance in months, scoring just six points Monday against the Magic, but the 25-year-old returned to peak form in this one. One of the favorites for this year's Most Improved Player Award, Siakam will have a few more games to put the finishing touches on his resume.

Siakam posted six points (2-9 FG, 1-3 3Pt, 1-2 FT), four assists and three rebounds in 28 minutes Monday in the Raptors' 121-109 win over the Magic.
EDGE Analysis
After picking up some rest in Saturday's win over the Bulls -- marking just his second absence of the season -- Siakam couldn't find a rhythm in his return to action. His 2-for-9 mark from the field was his worst since a 3-for-16 showing March 14 against the Lakers, resulting in Siakam finishing with fewer than 10 points for the first time in two and a half months. The Raptors could monitor the minutes of Siakam and several key regulars carefully over their final four regular-season contests, though he's less likely than Kawhi Leonard or Kyle Lowry to be withheld from action.

Siakam might not play Saturday against the Bulls due to rest purposes, Blake Murphy of The Athletic reports.
EDGE Analysis
The news was announced after the start of the game, and Siakam is active "just in case." There is speculation that the news came late as it wasn't clear if two-way players would be available due to a tough day of travel.

Siakam will come off the bench Saturday against the Bulls, Blake Murphy of The Athletic reports.
EDGE Analysis
Coach Nick Nurse, in the wake of some injuries, will opt to experiment with Serge Ibaka and Marc Gasol both starting. That will result in Siakam coming off the bench for the first time since the third game of the season. It's not immediately clear if he'll see fewer minutes than usual.
