Raptors F Siakam doubtful (calf) for Game 4
- Country:
- Cameroon
Toronto Raptors forward Pascal Siakam has a right calf contusion and is listed as doubtful for Sunday's Game 4 against the Philadelphia 76ers. Siakam has averaged 23.3 points, 5.7 rebounds and 36.3 minutes through the first three games of the Eastern Conference semifinal series.
The 76ers have a 2-1 lead entering Sunday's game in Philadelphia. The team has not released any details, but Siakam presumably was injured during Thursday night's 116-95 loss in Game 3.
Reserves Serge Ibaka and Norman Powell likely will see more playing time in Siakam's absence. Siakam, 25, became a contender for the NBA's Most Improved Player award in 2018-19. Playing in his third season, he started 79 of his 80 games and averaged career highs with 16.9 points, 6.9 rebounds, 3.1 assists and 54.9 per cent shooting from the field.
