Kyle Lowry relies on tough leadership style with younger Raptors
Toronto Raptors point guard Kyle Lowry says he's "a pretty tough guy" when it comes to being a leader with his younger teammates.
What It Means:
“I am a pretty tough guy. I am a prick when it comes to some stuff,†says Lowry of his leadership style. "I don’t care if you take a shot, miss a shot, make a turnover. I don’t care. I only care that you do it defensively and you do it consistently and you do it hard." Injuries limited Lowry to only 60 games last season, but as long as he's on the court, he remains one of the best fantasy point guards in the game.
numberFire's models project Lowry to average 22.1 points and 3.1 3-pointers on 47.8 percent shooting from the field this season with 6.5 assists, 4.4 rebounds, and 1.4 steals per game.
