Six-time All-Star guard Kyle Lowry is retiring as a member of the Toronto Raptors following a 20-year NBA career, according to Sportsnet’s Michael Grange.
The Raptors have scheduled a press conference Tuesday, July 7th – the same number Lowry famously wore – for a “monumental moment” in Raptors history, sources told Grange.
The special event is expected to lay the groundwork for future events this season recognizing Lowry’s contribution to the franchise, including a likely jersey retirement, adds Grange.
