IT WAS OVER WHEN
Kyle Lowry drilled his ninth field goal of the fourth quarter to give the Raptors an eight-point lead with 42.5 seconds remaining. It capped a brilliant fourth quarter for Lowry and protected the come-back victory for the Raptors who kicked off a six-game road trip with a 104-98 victory against the Utah Jazz.
The Raptors got off to a good start in Utah, trailing by one after the opening quarter, but shooting 60 percent. DeMar DeRozan scored 12 points in the first and Kyle Lowry scored 12 points of his own in the second quarter as the Raptors held Utah to just 22 points in the period en route to taking a 56-51 lead at the halftime break.
