Kyle Lowry

Raptors' G Kyle Lowry will be sidelined for the Raptors' matchup with the Wizards to rest.

Fantasy Impact

Lowry will now miss a second consecutive game due to rest. The 11-seed Raptors have just six games left in the regular season to try to make a late playoff push, but by resting Lowry, it seems as though this is fairly unlikely to happen. Malachi Flynn will likely take over PG duties for the Raptors in Lowry's absence.

The Raptors rested Lowry in the first half of a back-to-back set. He is expected to play in Sunday’s game against the Lakers. The Raptors are out of the playoff race and could continue to sit Lowry occasionally the rest of the season. The 35-year-old PG is averaging 16.8 points, 7.3 assists, 5.4 rebounds, 1.0 steals, and 2.7 triples across 34.7 minutes in 2020-21. Fantasy managers should check back on Sunday to ensure Lowry is in the starting five before setting their lineups.
