Lowry pours in 33 points to lift Toronto Raptors 101-93 over Utah
TORONTO — Moments before Toronto took the court against Utah on Thursday, Jazz coach Quin Snyder was heaping praise on Kyle Lowry, calling him his favourite player in the Eastern Conference.
And then — much to Snyder’s chagrin — Lowry went out and reminded him why.
The Raptors guard scored 16 of his 33 points in the fourth quarter to lift the Raptors a 101-93 win over Utah on Thursday — a game the Raptors never led until the final three-and-a-half minutes.
The late-game heroics came two weeks after Lowry scored 19 points in the fourth quarter to propel Toronto past the Jazz in Utah.
