Pascal Siakam tallied 17 points (6-of-14 FGs, 5-of-6 FTs), five rebounds, five assists and one steal in Sunday’s loss to the Nets.

In the three games the Pacers have played since losing Tyrese Haliburton to a hamstring strain, Siakam has averaged 18.7 points per game while shooting 45.8 percent from the field. That isn’t necessarily bad, but not sharing the floor with a lead guard as talented as Haliburton lowers Siakam’s ceiling. On Sunday, he scored just four points in the second half, shooting 1-of-3 from the field. The Pacers play three games next week, starting with the Hawks on Monday.
