Pascal Siakam becomes the fifth Raptor to top 50 points in a game

NEW YORK—Pascal Siakam has been fed up game after game, ticked off for days. He hates losing and is tired about talking about losing. He refuses to look too closely at losses because there are games to win in the future, and what good does thinking about the past do for anyone?

And then he went out and took charge of the present on one of the grandest of NBA stages.

In a game even more dominant than the one he had in a losing cause in Philadelphia on Monday, Siakam lifted the Raptors on his back and carried them to a slump-stopping victory over the New York Knicks.
