Lowry (back contusion) will not play Sunday against the Knicks.
Lowry was active for the Raptors previous game against the Bulls, but did not actually get in the game. His back injury is obviously still lingering, so it would make sense for the Raptors to let him rest. Continue to consider him day-to-day going forward and look for Greivis Vasquez to fill in a the point guard spot in his absence.

Lowry (back) is questionable for Sunday's game against New York, according to head coach Dwane Casey.
Lowry was active for Friday's contest but never took the floor. He has been dealing with a number of ailments over the past month, causing him to miss four games since the end of February. If he's unable to go Sunday, Greivis Vasquez will likely make another start at point guard.

Lowry (back) was active for Friday's game against the Bulls but never actually took the court.
Lowry should be considered day-to-day moving forward as he continues to deal with a back injury. Greivis Vasquez is in line to make another start if Lowry is unable to play in Sunday's game against the Knicks.

Lowry (back) is active Friday against the Bulls but will come off the bench behind Greivis Vasquez.
Lowry is dealing with a back injury and it doesn't seem that he's at full health. It's unclear just how much time he'll see on the court, making him a risky option across all formats Friday.

Lowry (back) will be a game-time decision for Friday's game against the Bulls.
Lowry, who was questionable coming in, did not go through shootaround, and coach Dwane Casey said he'll be a true game-time call. If Lowry is held out, Greivis Vasquez will likely re-enter the starting lineup.

Lowry (back) is considered questionable to play Friday against the Bulls, Josh Lewenberg of TSN reports.
Lowry left Wednesday's game with soreness in his lower-back, but it looks to be nothing serious, as coach Dwane Casey gave him a "50/50" chance to play versus the Bulls. Lowry's back is still sore Thursday, so the team likely won't provide an update on his status until Friday's shootaround.

Lowry left the court favoring his hip or lower back during the third quarter of Wednesday's game versus the Timberwolves and won't return, TSN Sports reports.
The extent of the injury is not yet known, but the Raptors are apt to provide an update in short order. Prior to his departure, he notched nine points (2-7 FG, 1-4 3Pt, 4-4 FT), six assists, and three rebounds in 26 minutes.

Lowry recorded a triple-double in 38 minutes Monday against the Pacers as he scored 20 points (7-13 FG, 5-8 3Pt, 1-3 FT) to go along with 11 rebounds, 10 assists and three steals.
Lowry has been on fire from behind the arc of late as he has made at least five three-pointers in four of his last six games. The Raptors lean heavily on their star point guard as he has played at least 37 minutes in five of his last six games, so continue to expect him to be a reliable fantasy option.

Lowry flirted with a quadruple-double Friday against the Heat, posting 19 points, eight rebounds, eight assists, seven steals, one block, and five three-pointers made in 37 minutes of action.
Lowry had a massive slump in February, but it appears he's finally overcome the wall. He's averaging 23.7 points, 3.7 rebounds, 5.0 assists, 1.3 steals, and 3.7 three-pointers made in March, and owners who (frustratingly) dropped him two weeks ago are probably biting their tongue in regret.

Lowry scored 32 points (10-19 FG, 5-9 3Pt, 7-7 FT) with five assists, four rebounds and two steals in 43 minutes during Tuesday's loss to the Spurs.
He was one of the few Raptors to show up in San Antonio, tearing into his teammates during a timeout in the second quarter as the club headed towards its ninth loss in 10 games. Lowry's now averaging 23.7 points, 5.0 assists, 3.7 boards, 3.7 threes and 1.3 steals in three games since getting a three game rest to heal a variety of minor injuries.
