Pascal Siakam and the Toronto Raptors were expected to get beaten down by the Los Angeles Lakers last night, as playing LeBron James and Anthony Davis on the second night of a back-to-back is by no means an ideal situation. Luckily, Siakam and Kyle Lowry were here to save the day in what turned out to be a dominant 121-114 victory.
While Lowry’s 37 points and 11 assists were one of the best performances from last night across the league, it was Siakam who stole the show, recording 39 points and 13 rebounds, dominating the likes of Davis and Andre Drummond while he was at it.
