Pascal Siakam plans to sign a 4-year, $189.5M max contract to stay with the Indiana Pacers once the NBA’s free agency moratorium ends on July 6, sources told ESPN.
Siakam arrived in a blockbuster deal with the Toronto Raptors in January and played an immense part in the franchise’s run to the Eastern Conference Finals for the first time in a decade. The Pacers pursued Siakam in the final year of his Raptors contract, banking that his championship and All-NBA pedigree would make for a perfect running-mate for All-NBA guard Tyrese Haliburton.
The Pacers will now have Haliburton and Siakam under contract through 2028 and 2029, respectively.
