Pascal Siakam (protocols) questionable for Raptors Wednesday
Toronto Raptors power forward Pascal Siakam (health and safety protocols) is questionable to play on Wednesday against the Detroit Pistons.
What It Means:
Siakam, Malachi Flynn, Patrick McCaw, and Fred VanVleet have all been cleared to practice after being sidelined due to the NBA's health and safety protocols. Siakam, Flynn, and McCaw are all questionable to play Wednesday while VanVleet is doubtful. OG Anunoby remains out. Norman Powell and Kyle Lowry will not be leaned on as much for offensive production if Siakam is cleared and there will be fewer minutes for the likes of De'Andre Bembry and Stanley Johnson.
Siakam is averaging 39.6 FanDuel points per game this season. Powell is averaging an additional 0.1 FanDuel points per minute and registering a usage increase of 2.9 percent when Siakam isn't on the court this season.
