Raptors Outplay Pacers To Earn Third Victory

Siakam’s Double-Double Leads Toronto’s Triumph

Toronto Continues Home Stand against New Orleans Friday

The Toronto Raptors secured their third win of the season in a resounding victory over the visiting Indiana Pacers on Wednesday night. An impressive performance from Pascal Siakam, who recorded a double-double with 26 points and 10 rebounds, played a pivotal role in the Raptors' success.

The Pacers came out strong in the first quarter, taking an early lead. However, the Raptors responded with a dominant second quarter, outscoring Indiana 31-19. Fred VanVleet and Gary Trent Jr. provided valuable support to Siakam, contributing 20 and 18 points respectively.

The Raptors maintained their momentum in the second half, extending their lead steadily. The Pacers fought valiantly, but Toronto's defense held firm, limiting Indiana to just 40.8% shooting from the field. The Raptors' bench also played a significant role, providing energy and depth throughout the game.

With this victory, the Raptors improve their record to 3-3 on the season. They will look to continue their winning ways on Friday when they host the New Orleans Pelicans at Scotiabank Arena. The Pelicans, led by Zion Williamson and Brandon Ingram, will present a tough challenge for the Raptors, who will be aiming to extend their home stand with another victory.
