Do the Toronto Raptors owe it to Kyle Lowry to trade him to a contender?

The fascinating career arc of Kyle Lowry reached a fever pitch this past season as he won his first-ever championship with the Toronto Raptors, a crowning achievement for the seasoned point guard in his twelfth season in the NBA.

An integral part of the Raptors roster in their most successful run in franchise history, it’s still hard to believe Lowry was minutes away from being traded to the New York Knicks back in 2013. How different it could have been for the Toronto Raptors and Lowry if he was shipped off to Madison Square Garden.

It’s safe to say the Toronto Raptors don’t win their first-ever NBA championship without Lowry at the helm.
