Toronto Raptors forward Pascal Siakam is expected to sit out through the All-Star break and miss the team's next three games due to health and safety protocols, sources told ESPN's Adrian Wojnarowski.
Siakam will not be available Sunday against the Chicago Bulls, the team confirmed. He will also reportedly miss games against the Detroit Pistons and Boston Celtics in the lead-up to the All-Star Game on March 7 in Atlanta.
Siakam, head coach Nick Nurse, and five members of the coaching staff all missed Friday's victory over the Houston Rockets due to the league's protocols.
The 2019 Most Improved Player and All-Star starter from a year ago is averaging 20.1 points and 7.5 rebounds for the 17-17 Raptors this season.
