PHILADELPHIA—It takes a few seconds for Kyle Lowy to digest the information when it’s mentioned him in a quiet moment in the Raptors locker room.
He’s getting dressed after his 507th regular season Raptors game and he has been told he is the longest-serving professional athlete in Toronto, with more time with the Raptors than Morgan Rielly has spent with the Maple Leafs or Jonathan Osorio with TFC or, well, anybody with the Blue Jays.
“That’s pretty bizarre,” he says.
Whether that’s an indictment of the other Toronto franchises or a testament to Lowry’s abilities or just a sign of the peripatetic life of professional athletes is hard to say.
