Watch: Pascal Siakam Accidentally Thanks Raptors After Inking New Deal With Pacers in Hilarious Blooper
Two days after his trade to the Indiana Pacers earlier this year, Pascal Siakam thanked Toronto and Raptors fans in a letter for the Players’ Tribune.
The then 29-year-old forward spent the first seven years of his career in Toronto and was a key part of the team’s 2019 NBA championship. Drafted 27th overall in 2016 as a developmental project, Siakam finished his Raptors career ranked in the franchise's top five for games played, points, rebounds, and assists.
Siakam expressed that despite trade rumors, Toronto was the only place he wanted to be. Even after the move, Siakam said Toronto will always be his home, no matter where he plays.
He said he’ll always be a part of this community. That’s what he meant about putting roots down, it isn’t just, “You know, ‘Oh I have a house in Toronto.’” It’s where he lives, Siakam emphasized. “This isn’t ‘thanks for the memories,’ then I go someplace else,” Even though, basketball could take him all over the world. But like he said: This is home.
“And I’m Toronto forever," he concluded.
