This season has been a rough one for Indiana Pacers fans, but perhaps nobody is feeling it worse than Pascal Siakam. And even head coach Rick Carlisle agrees (h/t Alex Golden of SI.com).
"The guy I feel for the most is Siakam," Carlisle said after the Pacers' 120-116 loss to the Cavaliers on Tuesday. "I hope that fans and media realize the type of year that he's having. I know how badly he wants to win games and bring these fans joy."
Indiana traded for Siakam two years ago to help establish itself as a title contender.
