In a piece with the Players' Tribune, Kyle Lowry talked about how excited he is to face the Toronto Raptors as an opponent.
“I also think it might just be a normal night in some ways,” Lowry said. In a Players’ Tribune piece, Lowry detailed a long phone call with Ujiri when he made up his mind about going to Miami. Lowry, who called Ujiri “big bro” in the piece, said that his relationship with the Raptors’ mastermind is much bigger than basketball. Lowry talked about how excited he is to be back in Toronto after 26 months.
TORONTO — The Toronto Raptors would never be where they are now without Kyle Lowry. But they wouldn't be able to get to where they want to be if the team's ...
The best thing I love about them is they’ll tell you stuff that they learned from Kyle, they’ll tell you stuff that they learned from DeMar, they’ll tell you stuff they learned from Kawhi and (Marc) Gasol. That stuff, I’m telling you, that’s going to turn into something and that something is winning and unbelievable human beings. “It’s almost like you’re handing the regime down to them. In the lead-up to the trade deadline last season — with Lowry very much in play as the Raptors pivoted to the ‘Tampa tank’, everything was done transparently, there were no surprises. It was famously Lowry who pulled Ujiri onto the floor for the victory celebration after they won the title at Oracle Arena moments after the Raptors president had been assaulted by a police officer working security. That wasn’t going to happen this time. But his choosing the Clippers in free agency and leaving one or more titles on the table clouds things a bit. And it’s not a coincidence that so often — like, every time — the difficult partings between Raptors stars and the team and the city left a bitter aftertaste. “Kyle was such a big part of what we do as a team and as an organization, like, obviously, for good reason when you look at everything that he’s done here,” Siakam told me recently. Siakam’s first, best minutes in the NBA came as a raw rookie playing wide receiver running under Lowry’s pin-point passes in transition. The same goes for Pascal Siakam, who has become the team’s primary ball-handler often, allowing his game to grow while simultaneously allowing the six-year veteran to find a voice he wasn’t quite sure he had. Nailing the timing has paid off. His tireless motor was the locomotive driving the dawn of the “We The North” era.

The Toronto Raptors will soon have a new three-point king as Fred VanVleet nears Kyle Lowry's franchise record.
"I think Freddy may get that deep, deep, deep, he's got the deep three-ball going maybe a little earlier in his career than Kyle did. "I wouldn't be surprised if that happened in the next five, 10 years." When VanVleet first broke into the league as an undrafted guard out of Wichita State back in 2016, he knew his only chance to earn a spot on the team was to follow Lowry’s lead. I think it speaks to the way the game is going and obviously my improvement as a player.” In just his second season in Toronto and his 190 three-pointers made in 2013-14 blew Morris Peterson’s then-franchise record of 177 threes out of the water. This time, topped by Lowry’s apprentice Fred VanVleet who sits just two three-pointers away from the franchise record that will no doubt be broken Sunday night against Lowry and the Miami Heat.
TORONTO — One morning earlier this week, Cliff Lee was going through his Kyle Lowry jerseys, trying to decide which one to wear to Lowry's long-awaited ...
"It was so great to have him in the community, going to these (Thanksgiving) events, because these kids are never going to a basketball game. Ahead of Saturday's games, the Heat had a one-game lead over Milwaukee atop the Eastern Conference. The Raptors are sixth, with an identical record to the fifth-place Chicago Bulls, who hold the tie-breaker. He embodies a lot of things that the Raptors do," added the realtor, whose goal is to see the Raptors play in all 29 NBA cities. "And the fact he went from a bench player who clashed with coaches to an all-star and a champion, (who showed) great leadership and loyalty. Fred VanVleet needs just three three-pointers away from breaking the franchise record for threes in a season. "We really miss him because he's done so much for the young people that we deal with at the foundation . . . it's a big gap unfortunately. Lowry was originally scheduled to return on Feb. 1, but it was one of several he missed for personal reasons. "It might just be a normal night in some ways, you know what I mean? Lowry was traded to Miami last summer after nine years in Toronto, where he was a six-time all-star. "Kyle was never the fastest, never the most athletic. They're pretty hard to find," said Lee, who has about 400 Raptors jerseys tucked away in the basement of his Brampton, Ont., house. said Lee, a Raptors fan since their first season in 1995-96.

«C’était fabuleux, ce type d’événements. Il y a si peu de chances que ces jeunes aillent assister à un match des Raptors, a t-elle ajouté. Les billets coûtent tellement cher. Dimanche, à l’occasion d’une visite du Heat, ce sera une soirée émotive pour l’athlète de 36 ans. Totalisant 236 tirs de trois points, VanVleet est à trois tirs du genre de détrôner Lowry pour le record dans une saison, chez les Raptors. «Avec tout ce qui se passe dans le monde, avoir quelqu’un comme Kyle qui répand de l’amour, ça dépasse les mots», a dit John Yan, directeur exécutif de la Angel Foundation for Learning, l’une des nombreuses associations caritatives auxquelles Lowry a donné un coup de pouce. Membre de six équipes d’étoiles, Lowry a été échangé à Miami l’été dernier, après neuf saisons avec les Raptors. Il a laissé une place de taille à combler sur le terrain, mais peut-être encore plus en dehors des lignes. «Il représente beaucoup ce que sont les Raptors, a dit Lee, un supporter dès la première heure (la saison 1995-96).
Kyle Lowry's list of Toronto Raptors moments could go on forever, but here are the top five from All-Star Game charges to the NBA Finals.
After dropping 36 points in a Game 6 loss against the Miami Heat, Lowry showed no signs of slowing down in Game 7. Forty seconds later, he nailed a pair of free throws as Toronto hung on to even the series. For the better part of three minutes, the Raptors couldn't do anything offensively, as they clung to a four-point lead. Let's go back to the beginning for a moment, back to when that underdog 2013-14 Raptors team looked like they were on the verge of getting outclassed by a veteran Brooklyn Nets team in the 2014 playoffs. Lowry's biggest impact for the Raptors almost always came with the strangest lineups. That's nearly 400 hours or 16 and a half days he spent doing everything he could to will Toronto to a win each and every night.

So true. It's difficult to come up with Toronto sports teammates of this era more inexorably linked than DeRozan and Lowry. They turned the Raptors franchise ...
“I’ve played a ton of golf in my years and you see a lot of executives and a lot of people high up in corporations and the reason they play golf is to take them away from their daily activities. “He sets the bar so high and you keep your level up to that or you look crazy playing next to him.” Maybe it will be some other point of big-game brilliance, like his Game 7 against Miami when he had 35 points, nine assists, seven rebounds and four steals in what was truly a performance for the ages. But there’s no question he plays and plays a lot because it’s a way to get away from basketball and still satisfy his ultracompetitive nature. It’s not many of us that said we’ve come from where we come from, and the struggles we come from.” “It might not be the biggest thing, but it’s more about me and my wife wanting to give back to the community that we live in, that we’re a part of, that supports us.” And how will you be a change agent for the next generation? “How will you serve?” he said in a video message to the university. But in a desolate parking lot on the outskirts of Toronto, the mood was festive. “At the end of the day, I’m in his shoes now,” VanVleet said. “It’s easy to say but just go down the list and look and see who didn’t reach their full potential. The late-night McDonald’s runs chronicled on social media, the back-and-forth during post-game interviews on the court and in the locker room.

"It's never going to be a wrap between me and this city," Lowry wrote. "I'm excited to be on a court with [Fred VanVleet] and Pascal [Siakam] and OG [Anunoby] again — if [team president] Masai [Ujiri] is big bro, then those are my little bros, and they're the guys now, they're taking over. Because of the COVID-19 pandemic that forced the Raptors to play the end of the 2019-20 campaign in the Disney World bubble and their displacement in Tampa, Fla., during the 2020-21 season, Sunday's game will be Lowry's first in Toronto since Feb. 28, 2020.

Masai Ujiri set the Toronto Raptors up for success and got Kyle Lowry in a good situation when he made the trade to part ways with him.
With Lowry handing him the keys upon his departure, Siakam has flourished. However, making sure that the Raptors were in a position to succeed without him was equally important for this front office. Lowry’s departure also helped create a void at point guard that two stars have filled with aplomb.
Upstaging Kyle Lowry on his return to Toronto is not something anyone wants or plans on doing.
The Heat give up just over 105 points a game and Adebayo is very much in the hunt for the league’s DPOY.

Fred VanVleet. Who else are all eyes going to be on as Lowry makes his first return to the he called home and the city he loved and returned his love for nine seasons. ‘I think over the last couple of weeks, we’ve just been really locked into the game plans and that our attention to detail has been great,” he said. No Raptor has ever averaged better than 22/8/5 in a season … VanVleet isn’t the only Raptor climbing the three-point charts. So, at that point, I think he had 11,12, 13 years of league reps under his belt, so just finding little things that could help whether it was balance or footwork or just repetition and just staying next to him and seeing how he gets it off, seeing how he hunts them, when he hunts them and just finding a rhythm” But really the most learning was done just seeing how Lowry worked. And behind them you have Brooklyn, Atlanta and Charlotte all battling to finish ahead of the others to host a play-in game. VanVleet currently sits third on the list behind Lowry and just 14 back of Morris Peterson who sits a distant second behind Lowry with 801. Behind that group you have Chicago and Toronto and potentially Cleveland, although they seem to have settled into that No. 7 spot, all jockeying for position. At the top of the Eastern Conference, you have Miami, Milwaukee, Boston and Philadelphia separated by 21/2 games with home court on the line for the playoffs. I think it speaks to the way the game is going and obviously my improvement as a player.” Not surprisingly, VanVleet gives Lowry a lot of credit for the player he has become. It will be Kyle Lowry's day, but Fred VanVleet will have his moment too with the Raptors But there will be a moment in between the deserved ovations for Lowry both as he’s introduced and likely every time, he touches the ball based on how this fanbase feels about him, that will belong to the Lowry understudy that now fills his very big shoes.
Toronto Raptors legend Kyle Lowry takes on a Sumo wrestler in his new commercial for a Canadian crypto company.
Lowry told Business Insider. "It changes the thought processes of who these people are. He's become a brand ambassador for BitBuy and has begun investing in renewable energy companies and the health care space, he told Business Insider last year. It's the second time Lowry has filmed a commercial with the Canadian crypto company.
