Kyle Lowry

Lowry built his reputation on the parts of the game that never make a highlight reel. A six-time All-Star (2015-2020), he was the connective tissue of a decade of Toronto contention: quarterbacking both ends, digging out loose balls, and drawing charges against bigger guards through sheer leverage and timing. That grit anchored the Raptors' 2019 championship, and his game translated to the international stage with Olympic gold in 2016 and All-NBA Third Team honors that same season. Undersized at the point, he thrived by reading actions a beat early and dictating tempo rather than out-athleting anyone. In 2025-26 he served as a mentor and steadying veteran voice for a young Philadelphia backcourt, his role reduced as he neared the end of a 20-year career.
