Raptors' Kyle Lowry named as reserve to his sixth NBA All-Star Game

Toronto Raptors point guard Kyle Lowry was named as a reserve for the 2020 NBA All-Star Game, according to Shams Charania of The Athletic.

This year’s All-Star appearance will mark Lowry’s sixth of his career as he’s participated in every game since 2015. He is averaging 19.8 points, 4.6 rebounds and 7.4 assists for the defending champions this season.

Expectations for Lowry were unclear heading into the 2019-20 campaign. Outside of John Stockton and Steve Nash, there isn’t a long list of point guards excelling into their mid-thirties. The 33-year-old has not only sustained his performance, but rediscovered parts of his game that were thought to be lost.
