Pacers, Raptors far along in trade talks for Siakam

[bison]

The Raptors and Pacers are actively engaged in trade talks centered around two-time All-Star forward Pascal Siakam that would send him to Indiana for a package that includes Bruce Brown Jr., other salaries and three first-round draft picks, league sources tell The Athletic.

I love this for the pacers if they can pull it off. Don’t think it puts them over the top but definitely mixes them with the upper echelon of the eastern conference. Just curious who those ‘other salaries’ are and how Siakam’s recent statements saying that he is not promising to re-sign with any team that trades for him being that he’s on the final year of his current contract factor in.

He could fit in with their high tempo offense and give them much needed help defensively. He would be great for them.

Any gamblers Reading this can you find me a site I can bet on Siakam’s end of season point per game and take the over before this is completed? Line might already be moving.

Lol. So he might get sent to pg's original team, who kawhi wanted the raps to trade him for after the 2019 finals.

This isn’t a rumor. It’s a report. Both teams are talking and have exchanged proposals according to Shams and The Athletic. It may not happen but the gears are rolling.

most reports never happen than. Toronto wants 3 firsts. How many does Indiana want to give up for a guy that might leave in the off season?
