Description: Toronto guard Kyle Lowry will get the start Wednesday against Atlanta. He had been a game-decision because of a sore knee. | Insight: Overall, Lowry has underachieved in his first season with the Raptors. Despite his struggles, Lowry's versatility still makes him valuable to fantasy owners (12.2 ppg, 5.9 apg, 4.8 rpg, 1.4 spg). | | |

We'll give Lowry a pass on the six turnovers because he was so dominant in the other fantasy categories on Saturday. | | |

The starting point guard job belongs to him with Jose Calderon in Detroit. | | |

Description: After proclaiming that the Raptors were his team following the Jose Calderon trade, point guard Kyle Lowry went out and put up just three points on 1-of-6 shooting. He added eight assists, five rebounds, two steals and a triple in 32 minutes. | Insight: The 32 minutes are nice, but we were expecting more in the scoring department from Lowry in his first game without Calderon. | | |

Description: Toronto guard Kyle Lowry is the big winner in the Rudy Gay trade. With Jose Calderon gone in the deal, Lowry will re-assume the starting point guard job. | Insight: Lowry showed his potential as a starter when he put up 14.3 points, 6.6 assists, 4.6 rebounds, 1.6 steals and 1.7 threes with Houston last season.

Description: Toronto guard Kyle Lowry (back) is expected to play Wednesday. SOURCE: Ryan Wolstat, Toronto Sun | Insight: The injury-prone point guard is backing up Jose Calderon but the team is shopping the latter. Lowry showed his potential as a starter when he put up 14.3 points, 6.6 assists, 4.6 rebounds, 1.6 steals and 1.7 threes with Houston last season. He's producing similar numbers in 15 starts this season. | | |

Description: Toronto guard Kyle Lowry is questionable for Wednesday's game against Atlanta. He's been suffering from back spasms. | Insight: Lowry has already missed 14 games this season so fantasy owners should know the drill by now.

Description: Toronto guard Kyle Lowry won't be available for Monday's game against Golden State. He's been suffering from back spasms. | Insight: Lowry has already missed 13 games this season so fantasy owners should know the drill by now. Jose Calderon (11.1 ppg, 7.4 apg), as usual, will be a strong play tonight against a struggling Warriors team (lost seven of their last 11 games). | | |
| 1/28/2013 10:38:00 AM |
Description: Raptors point guard Kyle Lowry didn't practice Sunday due to a tight back, but is probable for Monday's game against Golden State. | Insight: Lowry is coming off the bench and averaging 11.2 ppg, 3.4 rpg, 5.9 apg as a reserve. Hopefully a team with a point guard void (hello Boston) will trade for him or Toronto starter Jose Calderon and both would end up being better fantasy options. | | |

Description: A tight back limited Toronto guard Kyle Lowry to 22 minutes on Saturday. SOURCE: Eric Koreen, National Post | Insight: Lowry will break out for 20-plus points every so often to keep himself on fantasy rosters but he really isn't doing enough to validate a starting spot in fantasy lineups. A trade from Toronto to a team he can start for would be best for his value. | | |

Description: Toronto guard Kyle Lowry gobbled up 26 points Wednesday in a 107-105 loss to the Bulls. | Insight: Lowry was a question mark to play on Wednesday because of a sprained ankle.

Description: After unexpectedly returning from a sprained ankle, Kyle Lowry finished Tuesday's game with a team-high 21 points on 5-of-7 shooting (4-5 3PT), two assists and zero turnovers. | Insight: Lowry has been injury plagued all season so it was good to see him get back out there rather quickly after being ruled out initially. The point guard's performance on Tuesday is proof positive that you cannot give up on him just yet. | | |
