Toronto Raptors forward Pascal Siakam suffered a stretched groin during the team’s 112-99 victory over the Detroit Pistons and will be out indefinitely, the team announced Thursday.
The 25-year-old sustained the injury with 6:47 left in the fourth quarter of Wednesday’s game on an awkward landing.
The fourth-year star is averaging 25.1 points, 8.0 rebounds and 3.6 assists on 45.7 per cent shooting from the field.
Wednesday’s game also saw the Raptors lose Marc Gasol and Norm Powell indefinitely to a strained left hamstring and a subluxation of the left shoulder, respectively.
Siakam was the league’s Most Improved Player in 2019, putting up 16.9 points, 6.9 rebounds and 3.1 assists as the Raptors captured their first NBA title.
