>This year, the challenge is once again optimizing his game around change, as more responsibility flows to Scottie Barnes. Barnes is primed for a big year, and he and Siakam have shown a tremendous chemistry in preseason.
>The Raptors appear to be waiting to make sure that’s legitimate before giving Siakam his max extension. If there’s any doubt about the fit, Toronto’s willingness to sign that deal, or Siakam’s willingness to take it, then Siakam becomes the single most interesting trade piece at the deadline.
>The Raptors would surely likely to avoid that … so what are we waiting for? Something still feels slightly amiss there.
