While the final stat line was solid, Siakam continues to struggle at the foul line. Since the All-Star break, he’s made 50 percent of his attempts, slightly better than his percentage from the field (49.5). The foul shooting and limited defensive production are why Siakam has been ranked outside the top 200 in eight-cat formats since the break. His season-long fantasy value remains fine, but managers need more from Spicy P as the playoffs approach.

Haliburton had an excellent game as a facilitator in Game 1. The 25-year-old point guard moved the ball effectively as he totaled 12 assists. It wasn’t the best shooting game for Haliburton, though. He was just 3-of-13 from the field and missed all seven of his three-point attempts. While the Pacers were still able to take Game 1 by nine points in game that wasn’t as close as the final score, it’s likely they’ll need more scoring from Haliburton to close out this series.

While Turner had just five rebounds in Game 1, he was otherwise excellent. The 29-year-old center was a force on the defensive end with a steal and four blocks. On the offensive end, he was able to make four three-pointers as the Pacers pulled away from the Bucks. Turner vastly outplayed his counterpart Brook Lopez as the Pacers took a one-game advantage in the series.

Siakam led the Pacers in scoring in the Game 1 win. The 31-year-old power forward continues to show he’s one of the most underrated players in the league this year. Siakam was efficient with 25 points on 15 shots including three made three-pointers. He led Indiana with a +28 in 33 minutes in the nine-point victory. Milwaukee will have to come up with an answer for Siakam if they want to get back in this series in Game Two.

This was an unreal performance from Leonard. He entered halftime with just one miss and didn’t miss his second shot until the fourth quarter. He also ended the first half with a triple at the buzzer to give the Clippers a lead. He scored or assisted on LA’s final seven points, and he had a steal with 37.1 seconds left that helped secure the win. Kawhi played like the player that willed the Raptors to a championship in 2019. Injuries have derailed his tenure with the Clippers, but if he continues to put up numbers like this, they’ll have a chance to make a run.

When asked about how to help Michael Porter Jr. stay engaged after Game 1, Nikola Jokic said, “If you’re not going to be engaged right now, then you’re not supposed to be playing this sport.” Well, MPJ seemed to be more engaged in Game 2, and he ended up making some big plays down the stretch of this game as both a shooter and rebounder. He set a new playoff career-high for rebounds after finishing with just three points and four rebounds in 27 minutes on Saturday. Even though Denver didn’t get the win, MPJ playing better was a positive takeaway. If he keeps this up moving forward, Denver will be tough to beat.

After scoring 24 points in Game 1, Harris didn’t have as much success as a scorer on Monday. However, he was able to make a big impact on the glass. He was one of three Pistons to grab at least 12 rebounds in a game where they outrebounded the Knicks 48-34. That ended up being a big factor in this game. Harris was ran out of Philadelphia for his poor postseason performances, but his first two games with Detroit have been great. He’ll look to keep it going in Game 3 in Detroit on Thursday.
