Raptors' Pascal Siakam: Triple-double in loss to Nets
Siakam ended with 37 points (15-21 FG, 2-6 3Pt, 5-9 FT), 12 rebounds and 11 assists across 37 minutes during Friday's 109-105 loss to the Nets.
Analysis:
The 28-year-old put together an incredible night in Brooklyn en route to his fourth career triple-double, but Toronto got only nine total points from its bench, and Siakam's efforts were wasted. He vowed in the offseason to become a top-five player in the NBA, and so far, through two games this season, he's off to an excellent start toward that goal.
