Pascal Siakam, Raptors not talking extension
That talk eventually cooled, but the level of commitment Toronto has to the two-time all-NBA player is still uncertain. There have been no talks on a contract extension, per sources, with the team seemingly taking a wait-and-see approach to get a sense of how the existing pieces – Siakam primary among them – fit within whatever offensive system Rajakovic chooses to employ.

The Heat have limited assets to improve the roster with few available impactful players, and their trade flexibility is limited thanks to their proximity to the second tax apron. It’s possible that they get linked to some of the better-known available players, such as Holiday, James Harden, or Pascal Siakam. -via HoopsHype / September 28, 2023
Per one Western Conference source, it’s believed the Raptors were hoping to construct a deal that would not include their core pieces — Pascal Siakam, O.G. Anunoby or Scottie Barnes. -via SportsNet / September 28, 2023
A Raptors offer could include a package featuring players from a roster that includes two-time NBA All-Star Pascal Siakam, 2022 NBA Rookie of the Year Scottie Barnes, forward O.G. Anunoby — who is eligible for a contract extension — and rookie sharpshooter Gradey Dick. The Blazers are intrigued about adding a young 6-foot-8 sharpshooter in Dick, a source said. -via ESPN / September 25, 2023
