No one would have expected Pascal Siakam to be this good for the Indiana Pacers in the playoffs. But after the stats have been tallied, it might be time for the Milwaukee Bucks to push the panic button.
Just recently, the Pacers went home with the 125-108 win over Milwaukee. In that game, Siakam put on a monster performance by dropping 37 points, 11 rebounds, and six assists. Myles Turner delivered 22 points and seven boards, while Tyrese Haliburton contributed a double-double of 12 points and 12 assists.

The Bucks, on the other hand, still didn’t have Giannis Antetokounmpo in the lineup. Instead, the team counted on All-Star guard Damian Lillard and his 34 points to lead the way in Game 2. Brook Lopez tallied 22 points, while Bobby Portis finished the game with a double-double of 14 points and 11 rebounds.
The loss eliminated Milwaukee’s home court advantage as the series will not take place in Indiana. With momentum on their side, there’s a good chance the Pacers can get the lead, especially if Antetokounmpo remains inactive.
Pascal Siakam’s Insane Indiana Pacers Stat Should Worry Milwaukee Bucks

After the game, Siakam’s numbers came in and it’s looking pretty bad for the Bucks if they don’t have a answer for the Pacers star. In a trio of posts shared by StatMuse on X:
“The first player since the merger with 35+ PTS 10+ REB 5+ AST 65+ FG% and 0 turnovers in a playoff game,” StatMuse tweeted.
“Most points in a game this playoffs:
1. Pascal Siakam (37)
2. Pascal Siakam (36),” StatMuse shared.
“Pacers tonight: 38 assists 5 turnovers
The first team to do that in the playoffs in over 40 years,” StatMuse posted.
In the 41 games Siakam played for the Pacers, the All-Star forward averaged 21.3 points, 7.8 rebounds, and 3.7 assists. Throughout his whole career, the forward posted averages of 17.7 points, 6.6 rebounds, and 3.6 assists in the eight years he has played in the NBA.

With Antetokounmpo still out and the series moving to Indiana, the Bucks may find themselves in a deeper hole than before. If they don’t act fast, they might exit the playoffs sooner than expected.
