That's quite possible.
then again, other teams may also be interested in Siakam but it's a hard time to do a $38M salary match when a large subset of your roster is ineligible because they were just acquired via trade or signing.
And perhaps what we think we know is mostly a matter of the story TOR wants to have told, for one purpose or another.
Would love to add Siakam here, that's for sure. but way more desirable is getting the early-years version, where you have an impact player but you aren't paying 40-50M a year for him. (That's only possible if you have your picks and then hit on them. For reference, PS was picked at 27.)
