The Toronto Raptors selected him 27th overall in the 2016 NBA Draft after a college career at New Mexico State that had only begun to reveal what he was capable of — and over the next three years developed him from a raw, athletic wide body into one of the most versatile forwards in basketball, capable of defending every position on the floor while scoring from everywhere on the offensive end. His 2016-17 Panini Prizm #220 RC at PSA 10 Gem Mint is the flagship rookie card — the most collected version of the most important annual basketball card product — for a player whose development arc is one of the most compelling in recent NBA history.

His father Tchamo was a local political figure in Makenene, Cameroon, and the family's roots in that community shaped the values and discipline Siakam carries. The Basketball Africa League and Africa's growing pipeline of NBA talent has produced a generation of players whose stories connect the continent's developing basketball culture to the game's highest level, and Siakam stands at the head of that lineage.

The Raptors' 2019 championship was the first in franchise history, the first for any Canadian NBA team, and the first for a franchise that had spent years building the infrastructure to support a title run. Siakam was the weapon they didn't fully see coming.

The Aggies' development environment, under a program accustomed to developing undersized or late-developing players into professional prospects, gave Siakam the competitive repetitions and the technical instruction he needed to make himself draftable. That the Raptors saw past the rawness to the elite athlete and competitor underneath is the scouting call that built a championship team.
