About that Pascal Siakam trade, here is an article made by NBCsports to identify the winners and losers of it.
https://www.nbcsports.com/nba/news/winners-and-losers-from-pascal-siakam-trade-to-pacersWinner: Pascal SiakamFor all the talk of fit and chasing another ring, Pascal Siakam wanted to be somewhere he will get paid next summer. Enter Indiana, a team with cap space that knows it has to fork over to get and keep stars and its market — there is no way the Pacers would give up three firsts without a wink-and-a-nod that Siakam would re-sign with them this summer.
Winner: Indiana PacersSiakam also helps in the non-Haliburton minutes — Indiana has a -2.9 net rating in the minutes their star point guard is on the bench. Siakam can take over the offense in some of those minutes and keep them afloat.
Loser: Any other team eyeing Siakam this summerFor teams with cap space this summer, Pascal Siakam was going to be a prime target. Not anymore. While things may go sideways and Siakam decides to test the free agent market anyway, there is no chance this trade was put together without some nod-and-a-wink agreement on a new contract for him this summer.
Winner: Toronto RaptorsAlso, It’s a win in the big picture because the Raptors have picked and committed to a direction for the franchise, rebuilding around Scottie Barnes, something they needed to do.
Like I said earlier before the trade happened. The Raptors are waving the white flag and they are on a journey to rebuilding which I think is a great move from them. They saw nothing was happening for the team and it was time to move on. They already traded great important pieces like OG Anunoby (recent), Kyle Lowry, and Fred VanVleet, it's time to move on and create a new roster that would highlight Scottie Barnes.
Better do it early than act late. Soon they might not find some good trades to best fit their goal and now they are a winner because of the three first-round picks they received. Who knows if one of those players will be the next star of the NBA?
Indiana Pacers on the other hand could start building chemistry with the other players as soon as possible and all he needs is to wait for Haliburton to come and I am sure they will be more of a scary team. The Pacers lack the defense and a big man, but Siakam can do both offense and defense so I think it's a big win for them.
