Kyle Lowry (G - PHI)

Kyle Lowry scored 40 points on 56 percent shooting from the field, including a wonderful 6-for-10 mark from downtown, during Toronto's 115-109 loss to the Grizzlies on Saturday. Lowry added five assists and five rebounds in 34 minutes of action.

Fantasy Impact
Lowry has now upped his field goal percentage, three-point percentage and point total in each of the four games in which he's played since returning from injury. Lowry's scoring stroke has returned to supplement his solid all-around game—though he is experiencing a large dip in dimes lately—and his averages of 21.3 points, 5.8 rebounds, 5.3 assists, 3.6 triples and 1.4 steals per game on 44 percent shooting from the field and from deep this month, put him in elite company.
