Kyle Lowry is kind of like a reverse Bledsoe. He’s a middling defender, but an offensive powerhouse. He averaged career highs in points, assists, and shooting percentage this year, as he led the Toronto Raptors to the third seed in the Eastern Conference. At age 28, he is squarely in his prime, and with one of the best RPM ratings of any free agent this summer. Kyle Lowry isn’t a big name, but he wins basketball games.
