Kyle Lowry RUMORS & NEWS

Toronto Star "There’s a bit of gambler in Raptors point guard Kyle Lowry. He likes to sneak around after a Raptors shot goes up, gamble that he’ll get a steal or disrupt the opponent; it’s a chance he takes a handful of times a game. Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn’t and if coach Dwane Casey had..." March 07

Toronto Sun "Kyle Lowry has heard and read the complaints. He’s not being himself. He’s not being true to his game, to his own talents. He has to score more to be truly effective for the Raptors. And quite frankly, he thinks it’s all a load of crap. Lowry, despite what you or I or anyone else thinks,..." February 24

Toronto Sun "Older and wiser, Rudy Gay and Kyle Lowry get a do-over in Toronto.

Toronto Sun "Kyle Lowry basically told the Houston Rockets "it's either me or him," referring to Goran Dragic.

November 30

Toronto Sun "Kyle Lowry's attitude towards the Raptors' game in Houston on Tuesday seems to be that it is just one of 82 on the schedule this season.

Toronto Star "A game was slipping away from the Raptors, as so many have so early in the NBA season, and Dwane Casey was trying to imbue his team with some sense of confidence during a timeout.

Toronto Sun "Dwane Casey wasn't quite ready to show his hand. The Raptors head coach who hinted at lineup changes following an ugly loss in Dallas once again admitted those could still come by Saturday's game against Philly at the Air Canada Centre. But like a poker player who doesn't want to provide any..." November 10

Toronto Sun "The Raptors enjoyed the opening three minutes of Tuesday's game against the Thunder.

Toronto Star "It looked like a harmless stumble at the end of an ordinary play, a moment that happens dozens of times in an NBA game but one that could cause a serious setback to the Raptors.

Toronto Sun "Most people can't wait to take two weeks or so off of work. Kyle Lowry hated every minute of his "holiday."

Toronto Star "Kyle Lowry is about to be unleashed and he cannot wait. Having watched the first three Raptors pre-season games thanks to a balky groin, the point guard in his first year with the franchise is expected to play Wednesday night at home against Washington. That courtside seat has given him a good..." October 16

Toronto Sun "Alvin Williams has been around the Raptors organization for the better part of 15 years.

Toronto Sun "The Raptors made it pretty obvious at Tuesday's introductory availability with the two newest members of the squad. This is now Kyle Lowry's team.

Toronto Star "It is the Golden Age of point guards in the NBA, a position with a depth of talent league-wide perhaps never before seen and Kyle Lowry has one pertinent thought on his position in the pecking order: Hang on, I'm coming. Lowry, a supremely confident 26-year-old who could very well be handed the..." July 18

Toronto Sun "The entire Raptors organization was pleased to acquire Kyle Lowry, but scout Alvin Williams might have had the widest grin when the deal with Houston was completed.

May 27

Houston Chronicle "With the Rockets hoping that the worst of their late-season meltdown is behind them, knowing that without a rapid and full recovery their fading playoff hopes would be gone, they at least had some reason to believe things have gotten better even as their losing streak stretched to a fourth..." April 18

Houston Chronicle "Long after Saturday's practice, guard Kyle Lowry worked with the Rockets' big men, passing on the shooting drills with the guards to post up and bang inside.

Houston Chronicle "Rockets guard Kyle Lowry said he still has a "long way" to go to be at full strength, but that he is also ready to take on an increased work load three games after his return from a month out with a bacterial infection.

Houston Chronicle "Late in the first half Sunday, with the Rockets tearing through the Kings' approximation of defense, Luis Scola went for a wide-eyed facial of a slam over Kings center DeMarcus Cousins.
