TORONTO (AP) — Toronto Raptors point guard Kyle Lowry has a right wrist injury
that could sideline him for an extended period.
Coach Dwane Casey announced before the game against the Boston Celtics on Friday
night that the All-Star guard would miss the contest after having X-rays and
would have further evaluation over the weekend.
“That’s a huge blow for us,” Casey said. “I don’t know how long he’s going to be
out. It’s not going to be a one-day thing.”
Casey confirmed Lowry was hurt in a victory over the Charlotte Hornets on Feb.
15, the team’s final game before the All-Star weekend. Though the club thought
the wrist would get better with rest and treatment during the All-Star break in
New Orleans, that has not been the case.
