Siakam had a rough night shooting the basketball, but he still managed to avoid missing double figures for the first time this season. While category league managers took a beating in the field-goal percentage category, Siakam did offer value in the rebound and assist categories. The Pacers open a four-game Week 13 on Monday against the Celtics.

At long last, the Pacers’ 13-game losing streak is over, and Rick Carlisle has his 1,000th career win as an NBA head coach. Siakam made the game’s biggest shot, as his layup with 11.5 seconds remaining gave Indiana the lead for good. He finished with his fourth 30-point double-double of the season. As the Pacers continue to navigate this season without Tyrese Haliburton, Siakam has shouldered an extremely heavy workload as the lone player providing reliable fantasy value.

Siakam did his best to spark a late rally for the Pacers as he scored 13 of his 22 points in the second half, including a three-point play in the final minute to slash the deficit to a single point. It still wasn’t enough to help Indiana avoid their 13th consecutive loss. The 31-year-old scoring machine has been on fire of late, averaging a robust 26.3 points over his last four games, providing fifth-round fantasy value during that span.

Siakam cobbled together a monster third quarter, exploding for a whopping 20 points on 8-of-11 shooting, as the Pacers managed to make this one close in the final minutes. Unfortunately, his second-half heroics weren’t enough as the Pacers suffered their 12th consecutive loss since December 12. They’ll attempt to turn things around when they kick off a light three-game week against the Cavaliers on Tuesday before facing the Hornets and Heat to close things out.

It was more of the same for Siakam as he remains Indiana’s primary offensive catalyst during a lost season where they continue to pile up the losses as one of the worst teams in the entire league after making the NBA Finals just a few months ago. The 31-year-old forward has topped 20 points in four consecutive games and has delivered seventh-round fantasy value during that span, averaging 26.3 points, 6.3 rebounds, 3.5 assists, 1.8 steals and 0.3 blocks.

Siakam’s 26 points came as the Pacers lost their 10th consecutive game. The 31-year-old power forward is making the most of what’s already a lost season for the 6-27 Pacers. Siakam scored at least 20 points in seven of his last 10 games. The beat goes on for the Pacers as they take on the Spurs Friday.

Siakam was a one-man wrecking crew in the first half, pouring in 24 points on 10-of-13 shooting, including 4-of-5 from beyond the arc. It didn’t end up making a difference as the Pacers surrendered a whopping 142 points to drop to a league-worst 6-26 overall this season. The Pacers have lost eight straight games since December 12. They’ll open a four-game week on Monday with a road tilt against the Rockets.

The Pacers lost their fifth straight game and fell to 6-23 on the season with the loss to the Celtics on Monday. Siakam still remains the top scoring option in Indiana and he had 25 points and four three-points against Boston. The 31-year-old power forward isn’t known for his three-point shot, but now has eight three-pointers over his last three games. The Pacers take on the Bucks on Tuesday in the second game of a back-to-back.

There aren’t a ton of positive for the Pacers right now but Siakam remains a reliable scoring threat for fantasy purposes, averaging 23.8 points, 6.7 rebounds, 4.0 assists, 1.3 steals and 0.5 block through 27 games. The 31-year-old forward has topped the 20-point mark in nine of his last 10 games since November 28. His 11 free throw attempts in this one represented his highest single-game total since November 24. The Pacers will attempt to get back on track when they face the Celtics on Monday in a road matchup to kick off a four-game week.

After having his streak of seven straight games with at least 20 points come to a screeching halt in Sunday’s blowout loss to the Wizards, Siakam got to work on a new streak on Thursday. While the field-goal percentage wasn’t the best, fantasy managers will undoubtedly take the overall stat line. Siakam’s five “stocks” were the most in a game for him this season, and this was his first game with at least five assists in nearly a month. “Spicy P” still hasn’t reached his Yahoo! ADP (30), but he’s been a top-50 player in eight-cat formats over the last two weeks.

Five Pacers finished Friday’s defeat in double figures, with Siakam leading the way. He’s scored at least 20 points in seven straight and 12 of his last 13 games, a big reason why the veteran forward has been close to a top-50 player in eight-cat formats over the past month. While Siakam’s slow start didn’t do fantasy managers any favors, he has turned things around. The concern now would be the Pacers deciding to pull the plug on some of its veterans, but that should not be an issue this early in the season.

Counting Monday, Siakam has scored at least 23 points in six straight and eight of his last nine games. The Pacers forward has seen his season-long fantasy value decline, mainly due to the team’s many injuries, most notably Tyrese Haliburton. While the point guard’s absence may have been viewed as an opportunity for Siakam to do more playmaking, that isn’t how things have worked out. He’s providing seventh-round value in eight-cat formats, well behind his Yahoo! ADP (30).

Siakam remains the top option on the Pacers as they navigate this season without Tyrese Haliburton. The 31-year-old power forward has expanded his game to include three-point shooting and knocked down five threes against the Bulls on Friday. The Pacers are off for the rest of the weekend and have three games on the schedule in Week 8.

Siakam remains a solid scorer as he’s averaging 24.1 points per game this year, though his overall fantasy value hasn’t lived up to preseason expectations. The 31-year-old power forward was drafted in the third-round, but is providing seventh-round value so far this year. Siakam also comes with the risk of being shut down on a struggling Pacers team that’s going through a rebuilding year.

With the Cavaliers regaining control of Monday’s game early in the fourth quarter, Siakam lost out on a few minutes due to Pacers head coach Rick Carlisle pulling the plug. Given how many games the Pacers have lost, this has to be a frustrating season for Siakam and, by extension, those who have him on their fantasy rosters. Having entered the season with a third-round Yahoo! ADP, he’s ranked outside the top-75 in eight- and nine-cat formats. And with Indiana being 4-17, buying low comes with the risk of “Spicy P” being shut down later in the season, as the Pacers regained control of their 2026 first-round pick via a June trade with the Pelicans.

For the first time this season, the Pacers have a winning streak. Siakam scored 24 points in consecutive games, which resulted in back-to-back wins. Friday’s game was a blowout, but this one ended with Siakam hitting a contested mid-range shot with .1 seconds remaining. It was a fantastic shot to close out an exciting game, and Siakam continues to cook. He has scored at least 20 points in seven of their last eight games, and he has two steals in four straight.

After scoring a season-low 11 points on Wednesday, Siakam got back on track in this one to help lead Indiana to a lopsided victory. He has scored at least 20 points in six of his last seven games, and he continues to shoot the ball efficiently. Through their first nine games, he shot at least 50 percent from the floor just once; over their last nine games, he has shot below 50 percent just twice. This was also his first double-double since October, which was enough to help the Pacers get their third win of the year.

The Pacers fell to 2-15 on the season, but Siakam delivered another strong performance. He went over 20 points for the fifth straight game and logged his first multiple-blocks, multiple-steals game of the season, while leading all Pacers in rebounds along the way. Siakam continues to be one of the lone bright spots for Indiana amidst a rough start to their season. He also remains one of the more productive forwards across fantasy leagues. Even with the Pacers’ poor record, there’s no reason for fantasy managers to believe a dropoff in production for Siakam is near.

The Pacers fell to 2-14 with the loss to the Cavaliers on Friday, but it’s been no fault of Siakam. The 31-year-old power forward has been a consistent and excellent presence in the Pacers’ lineup. He’ll continue to see additional usage until the Pacers start getting some players back.

Siakam was hardly efficient with 22 points on 17 shots, but he led the Pacers with +25 in 37 minutes of the nine-point win over the Hornets as the team improved to 2-13. Siakam has been a bright spot in the nightmare start the Pacers have had to the season. While he not only provided 22 points, he dished out seven assists and had a block and a steal. Siakam showed once again this year that he’s not going down without a fight.

Siakam continues to solider on as the bright spot on a Pacers team that fell to 1-13 with the loss to the Pistons on Monday. The 31-year-old power forward had 29 points on 17 attempts in the loss. The Pacers will have a chance to get back in the win column next against the Hornets on Wednesday.

Siakam was one of the few bright spots for Indiana in this one as they fell to 1-12 overall to open the season. It’s officially the worst start to a season in franchise history. Not only are they without franchise cornerstone Tyrese Haliburton (Achilles), but they’re also without Aaron Nesmith (knee), Obi Topin (foot) and Bennedict Mathurin (toe) right now. The 31-year-old forward has picked up the slack from a scoring perspective recently, averaging 25 points over his last three games. The injury-ravaged Pacers will attempt to turn things around next week when they face the Pistons, Hornets and Cavaliers.

Siakam’s return from a one-game absence did not keep the Pacers from giving up 152 points on Tuesday, but he did provide fantasy managers with another solid stat line. Thus far, Spicy P is ranked outside the top-100 in eight- and nine-cat formats, providing greater value in the former. His usage has jumped by more than six percentage points from last season, but the Pacers’ lack of proven scorers has negatively impacted Siakam’s value. On a better version of this team, he would be an enticing “buy low” option. However, with Indiana now 1-10, managers who have Siakam rostered may be concerned about a potential late-season tank.

Siakam did not play in Sunday’s loss to the Warriors, which was Indiana’s second game in as many nights. His return to the lineup means Jay Huff will be bumped to the bench after recording a double-double the last time out. Huff has offered limited fantasy value this season, so he doesn’t have to be held in most fantasy leagues.

Siakam, who has shouldered a heavy workload this season due to the Pacers’ many injuries, will get Sunday night off. This is a brutal hit for fantasy managers who were hoping for a big performance from Spicy P on the final night of Week 3. Jeremiah Robinson-Earl’s playing time will likely increase after he logged 15 minutes on Saturday, but he isn’t the most trustworthy streaming option. If Jarace Walker is on the waiver wire, add him first.

It was a forgettable performance for Siakam in this one as he shot just 31 percent from the floor to finish with a season-low 14 points. It came as a bit of a surprise since Andrew Nembhard was back in the lineup for the first time since opening night. He had eclipsed 27 points in five of nine games to open the season and is averaging 24 points, eight rebounds and six assists during that span. He’ll attempt to turn things around when Indiana faces the Warriors on Sunday.

Due to the Pacers’ lack of healthy point guards, Siakam has been asked to take on more playmaking responsibilities this season. Of the eight games he’s played, Spicy P has recorded at least six assists in four, including a season-high nine on Wednesday. The negative was that he committed seven turnovers against the Nets, more than doubling his previous high (three). High-turnover nights of this caliber have been few and far between for Siakam, so there isn’t much to worry about. The only concern is that there may come a point later in the season when the Pacers’ draft lottery odds become a priority, but we aren’t there yet.

Siakam has been on fire to start this season, and that continued against Milwaukee. This was his third 30-point performance this year, and he still was able to tie his season-high for assists. Siakam has been a constant source of production for the shorthanded Pacers this year, which should continue on. His shooting percentages have been poor, but he’s currently averaging a career-high in points and steals.

Siakam’s ranked outside the top-100 in eight- and nine-cat formats, with low percentages being the culprit. Given his career production, one would assume that Spicy P will close in on his Yahoo! ADP (30) as the season progresses. He’s being asked to shoulder a heavy workload, but that will change somewhat once the Pacers get some of their injured rotation players back on the floor. Now would be a good time to see if you can “buy low” on Siakam, especially with the Pacers playing four games in Week 3.

Unsurprisingly, Siakam once again led the Pacers in scoring. However, his efficiency was lacking, as he shot 33.3 percent from the field and 60 percent from the foul line. Also, Siakam did not record any defensive stats, which was somewhat surprising given that he was averaging 1.5 steals per game entering Friday. Siakam will be fine, but it’s fair for some to be concerned about the workload he’s had to shoulder due to the Pacers’ many injuries.
