Kyle Lowry Unlikely to Play Sunday

Kyle Lowry is doubtful for the Toronto Raptors’ matchup with the Philadelphia 76ers Sunday, with a lingering thumb injury.

Lowry last played in a Feb. 16 124-113 win against the Milwaukee Bucks, playing 21 minutes and scoring 18 points with six rebounds and seven assists. A primary playmaker for the Raptors, Lowry has averaged  34 minutes, scoring 17 points with five rebounds and six assists per game.  He is fourth on the team in usage, at 22%, behind Pascal Siakam, Fred VanFleet and Norman Powell.

Expect Powell and VanFleet to see increased usage with Lowry off the court. DeAndre Bembry has started in place of Lowry for the last two games.

The Raptors are +5500 to win the NBA Championship on FanDuel Sportsbook.
