Pascal Siakam deserves a spot on the All-Star team. Period.
Siakam is NOT the same player who landed an All-NBA spot in 2020 — he’s been better! Pascal’s averaging career highs in rebounds, assists, steals, PER, and BPM. He is no longer forcing shots in isolation like he was last season. Instead, Siakam has struck a perfect balance of creating favourable scoring opportunities for himself and his teammates. He’s one of five players averaging at least 20 points, 8 rebounds, and 5 assists.
Stats alone won’t get you into the All-Star game, though. How does Pascal compare to his peers?
