Look of the Day for Friday, Jan. 26: Siakam more than keeping pace

NFL Championship Sunday is almost here, but before we get to the main event of the weekend, we've got one more Look of the Day to close out the week. Let's kick the weekend off right with our favorite player prop for Friday's NBA slate. 

Look of the Day: Pascal Siakam over 11.5 points + assists (-110 DraftKings)

It didn't take long for Pascal Siakam to settle in with his new team. The veteran forward recorded a triple-double Thursday night in just his fourth game with the Indiana Pacers, and there's no reason to believe his role will decrease Friday night with Tyrese Haliburton still out of the lineup.

Over the last two games without Haliburton on the court, Siakam is averaging 9.0 rebounds and 7.0 assists. His 13 rebounds against the Philadelphia 76ers Thursday actually marked a season-high, and his 10 assists marked just the second time all season he's reached double digits. 

The Pacers didn't trade for Siakam for him to be a secondary contributor on offense. Indiana is going to run the offense through Siakam for much of the game when Haliburton isn't on the court, so he will have plenty of opportunities to rack up rebounds and assists in a game with the second-highest total on the board Friday.
