Sometimes a nickname can be taken too far.
Not this time, though.
Toronto Raptors’ star Pascal “Spicy P” Siakam has finally got his name on a hot sauce bottle.
The Cameroonian has teamed up with South African restaurant chain Nando’s to unleash the limited edition Spicy P(ERi-PERi) condiment upon the world.
An unspecified portion of the revenue generated from every bottle will also be given to the non-profit group Right To Play.
"My game has a ton of flavour and spice, so it makes sense that I bottle it up into my very own Spicy P(ERi-PERi)," said Pascal Siakam.
"I am excited to collaborate with Nando's on this and finally give fans what they've been asking for. Plus, this is even better than a hot sauce – it's PERi-PERi."
The sauce will be on sale at Nando’s chains and Sobeys stores from today.
"Basketball fans have cheered on Pascal over the years and now they can join him in transforming the lives of children across Canada and around the world,” said Kevin Frey, CEO of Right To Play.
