Siakam is definitely not the 2nd best player for the raps
By both advanced and basic numbers, he's very clearly the 2nd best guy
How? Basic stats Siakam is more efficienct scorer on similar volume but Lowry creates more of his own shots. And he’s getting 6 more assists per game with only 1 turnovers. Advanced stats only give a slight edge to Siakam.
Lowry is way more important to our offense. He initiates the offense, creates more for himself and others, and is more effective in the half court
