Siakam produced 27 points (12-23 FG, 1-5 3Pt, 2-3 FT), five rebounds, three assists, two steals and one block in 38 minutes during Saturday's 114-109 win over Golden State.
Siakam posted an improved final line Saturday after struggling to find his groove Friday evening. He willed his team to their first win of the season, logging a season-high 38 minutes while finishing second in scoring behind Aaron Nesmith's 31-point outburst. Siakam will likely continue to be asked to shoulder much of the scoring load for Indiana until Andrew Nembhard (shoulder) and Bennedict Mathurin (toe) can get healthy.

Rotowire
Siakam went off for 27 points (9-23 FG, 2-5 3Pt, 7-12 FT), 13 rebounds, three assists, two steals and three turnovers in 37 minutes during Wednesday's 107-105 loss to the Mavs.

His usage rate has skyrocketed to 29.7 sans Bennedict Mathurin (toe), as he's the only guy on this Pacers' team who can consistently create his own offense. Expect the big stat lines to continue.

Pacers' Pascal Siakam: Flirts with triple-double in loss
Rotowire
Siakam recorded 33 points (11-24 FG, 3-6 3Pt, 8-12 FT), 10 rebounds, eight assists and three steals in 37 minutes during Sunday's 114-110 loss to the Timberwolves.
Siakam was held to just 13 points his last time out, but he surpassed that total before the first half of Sunday's game, and he also ripped away three steals after failing to get any during Saturday's loss. Siakam is going to be the primary point of Indiana's attack while Bennedict Mathurin (foot) is sidelined, so he should have some big stat lines coming his way.

Pacers' Pascal Siakam: Tallies well-rounded line
Rotowire
Siakam totaled 13 points (5-12 FG, 2-7 3Pt, 1-2 FT), six rebounds, six assists and one block across 26 minutes during Saturday's 128-103 loss to the Grizzlies.
Following his 32-point, 15-rebound performance in the Pacers' season opener on Thursday, Siakam was limited to just 26 minutes in their 25-point loss to the Grizzlies on Saturday. Memphis jumped out to a double-digit lead in the second quarter and never relinquished it, going up by as many as 30 points during the final frame. If Bennedict Mathurin (foot) misses any time moving forward, Siakam becomes the focal point of Indiana's offense.

Pacers' Pascal Siakam: Goes for 32-and-15 in loss
Rotowire
Siakam totaled 32 points (12-25 FG, 3-6 3Pt, 5-12 FT), 15 rebounds, four assists and one steal in 44 minutes during Thursday's 141-135 double-overtime loss to the Thunder.
Siakam stood tall for the Pacers despite the loss, producing a balanced performance outside of the poor free-throw shooting. With Tyrese Haliburton likely to miss the entire season due to an Achilles injury, Siakam is going to be front and center when it comes to production. Barring injury, it wouldn't be surprising to see Siakam put together the best fantasy season of his career.

The Pacers fell one win shy of Siakam picking up his second career NBA championship. Siakam will be able to hold his head high after another terrific campaign, however.

Siakam had a respectable total heading into the fourth quarter, but he woke up with 12 points in the final stanza. He was the engine of an 11-3 rally that put the Pacers within striking distance. His teammates provided little support after the scoring barrage, as the Thunder responded with an 18-4 rally of their own to put the game out of reach. Siakam's 28 points marked his best scoring performance of the series.

Tyrese Haliburton and Myles Turner weren't at their best in this game, and while Siakam didn't get as involved as he should have in the final minutes, he still ended as the Pacers' leading scorer. The forward has been outstanding for Indiana in the Finals and has scored at least 19 points in three of the four games. He should play a pivotal role in Game 5 on Monday.
