Siakam, Raptors beat Clippers to extend winning streak to 5

LOS ANGELES (AP) — Pascal Siakam had 31 points and the streaking Toronto Raptors held off a fourth-quarter comeback by the Los Angeles Clippers for a 103-100 victory Wednesday night.

The Raptors (39-30) have won five straight and went 5-1 on their road trip. Siakam has scored at least 20 points in a career-high eight consecutive games and is averaging 27.8 points during that span.

“I think it’s great composure. He’s seeing things very clearly,” Toronto coach Nick Nurse said. “I thought he made one really tough basket where they knocked him back, but he was able to clear some space and make a physical finish.
