Pascal Siakam had an exceptional performance against the Sacramento Kings. However, his performance on the stat board is not what he will remember about this game. Rather, in some insane sequence of events, near the end of the first half, Siakam bled from the side of his forehead. After blocking a shot from Harrison Barnes, Siakam inadvertently got elbowed on the side of his head. This resulted in his bleeding that caused the play to stop.
Additionally, the Sacramento Kings public announcement team played Bleeding Love by Leona Lewis. This added a hilarious element to the bizarre incident for Pascal Siakam. Take a look at the insane scenes from the Golden 1 center that happened in last night’s game.

Amid the chaos for the Sacramento Kings that is the status of their head coach, the Kings faced an embarrassing loss to the Raptors. In an overall dominant performance for Siakam, he dropped 32 points and had 8 rebounds. However, nearing the end of the first half of this game, the elbow to the forehead must have definitely shaken up Siakam. It was clearly inadvertent since both the players clashed during conventional basketball plays (shooting and blocking).

However, the reaction from the public announcement system was clearly intentional. They played Bleeding Love by Leona Lewis which is now making this incident trend on social media.
