With 57 seconds left in the third quarter, Siakam was dribbling the ball at the top of the key when he slipped and fell to the ground.

After additional tests, the player has been diagnosed with a right adductor muscle strain and will be re-evaluated in at least two weeks, the Raptors announced. The team had previously listed the forward as doubtful for tonight's game against the Chicago Bulls.

With the start of the 2022-23 NBA season, Siakam has been having a career year so far, averaging 24.8 points, 9.3 rebounds, and 7.7 assists, with all three being career-highs.

He's been named NBA's Most Improved Player in 2019 and made his first All-Star team in 2020. Last year, Siakam was named to All-NBA Third Team.
