Pascal Siakam reacts to transfer rumors

While we learned that the Kings and Raptors had discussed a trade around Pascal Siakam, the Cameroonian's name is circulating everywhere in the NBA. Last night, Canadian media spoke of a possible interest from the Warriors, even if management would not be very keen to let go of Jonathan Kuminga in a possible “package”.

Regardless, the All-Star winger is not weighing down his mind with these rumors and uncertainty about his future. “I don’t really pay attention to all that”he assures Sacramento Bee. “I have people who work on this sort of thing. I play basketball. I'm a basketball player and that's all I try to focus on. »

The Kings didn't want to let go of Keegan Murray

However, since this summer, we have been talking about Siakam to the Hawks, the Pacers, and even the Mavericks. The Kings have spoken with the Raptors about him, but the fact that Toronto wants Keegan Murray in the trade has ended the discussions, according to Sportsnet.

“Frankly, I don’t know anything about all that” he promises when asked about contacts with the Kings. “We had two wins coming here, and I wanted us to build on that. Tonight, it’s obviously a defeat that hurts. But we have to continue to build on what we do and work. For now, I'm here and I'm not really thinking about my future. Honestly, I live day by day. There are a lot of things I can't control, and I just play and try to improve. »

Free agent next July, with the desire to test the market, the Raptors winger does not make the task of his leaders, nor that of the teams interested in his profile, easy.
