Pacers’ Pascal Siakam throws down massive jam in transition vs. Rockets

Pascal Siakam pulled off an impressive dunk highlight on the fastbreak in the Indiana Pacers’ matchup against the Houston Rockets on Monday night.

Siakam is halfway through the 10th season of his NBA career, his third with the Pacers. He has been a bright spot for Indiana as the team is going through a free fall with the multiple injuries they have suffered this season. The veteran forward has performed so well that he earned the fourth All-Star selection of his career, his second straight honor with the Pacers.

Siakam proved his talents with a highlight in the final minutes of the third quarter. Following a Houston turnover, Indiana went on the fastbreak as Siakam finished off the transition play with a strong one-handed dunk.
