Raptors' Kyle Lowry: Struggles Friday in second game back

Lowry contributed 12 points (5-14 FG, 1-5 3Pt, 1-5 FT), seven rebounds, six assists and two steals across 36 minutes during Friday's 96-94 victory over the Heat.

Analysis:

Though Lowry dropped an impressive 27 points and 10 assists while shooting 9-for-16 from the field during his return Wednesday against the Nuggets, he couldn't buy a bucket Friday against the Heat, struggling from all parts of the floor. He shot an atrocious 20.0 percent from both the three-point line and charity stripe, as well as committing five turnovers. While he likely won't continue playing this poorly moving forward, it may take longer than a couple games for Lowry to get truly acclimated after recovering from wrist surgery. He should probably continue being employed in year-long formats, though could make for a risky DFS play.
