Kyle Lowry, arguably the greatest Toronto Raptor of all time, has been back to Toronto several times since he left the team in 2021. Every time he is celebrated with the usual fanfare, always promises he will be back, and reminds the fans why, even in the Post-Lowry era, he will always be a Raptor favourite.
Today’s visit will be unique though, as it’s Lowry’s first time back since he signed with his hometown Philadelphia 76ers earlier this season. After being traded from the Miami Heat to the Charlotte Hornets prior to the trade deadline, Lowry and Charlotte agreed on a buyout deal.
