Set to make the playoffs for the first time since the 2019-20 campaign, they reportedly made a huge trade on Wednesday by acquiring two-time All-Star Pascal Siakam from the Toronto Raptors. Now, with Siakam, the Pacers will be even better with Haliburton returns. Since the 2019-20 season, Siakam has averaged between 21.4 and 24.2 points per game (he’s putting up 22.8 per contest since then). He was named an All-Star in both 2020 and last year, and has averaged 7.6 rebounds per game over the last five seasons. Siakam, who was drafted by the Raptors in 2016, will return to Toronto as a member of the Pacers on Valentine’s Day.
