It’s the final weekend before the NBA regular season begins, which means you’re coming here for your fantasy basketball drafts.
Should you draft Pascal Siakam this season? Here’s the latest outlook, projections, and rankings for the Indiana Pacers Power Forward.
Should You Draft Pascal Siakam in Fantasy Basketball?
Pascal Siakam averaged north of 20 points for a sixth straight season in 2025, solidifying himself as the primary threat in this Pacers offense in the process.
With Myles Turner gone and Tyrese Haliburton on the shelf for the season, the usage and counting numbers should flirt with elite and that is why he draws some interest as the second round comes to a close.
That’s a little rich for my blood. His 3P% was five percentage points ahead of his career norm last year, something that regression math would flag if nothing around him changed. With plenty of pieces in motion, I struggle to see the quality of FGA sustaining for Siakam.
How much different is he going to be than Cooper Flagg this season? The scoring leans in the direction of the former Raptor, but I don’t think there’s much else different and you’re going a round (or more) discount to roll the dice on the rookie instead of taking a veteran on a team in something of a gap year.
