Using SAS miles and baggage with SkyTeam status. How does this work?

I’ve got about 43,000 SAS miles expiring in April and I’m trying to use them for a round trip Raleigh to Toronto in January. The award price is 25,000 miles round trip, which works for me, but it doesn’t include a checked bag and I don’t see any option to add one during booking....
