Report: Raptors intend to re-sign Lowry; offer may start at $12M
The Toronto Raptors want to re-sign their star player before he has an opportunity to talk to other teams. Multiple reports suggest they're close to doing so, though Sportsnet's Michael Grange says nothing is done yet:
Talked re: Lowry on @FAN590 & PREDICT a deal gets done - Lots of optimism -- but not reporting 'deal done'. K? Story up soon @Sportsnet.

ESPN's Marc Stein suggests it will cost the Raptors a tidy sum to retain their franchise point guard:
Miami's interest in Lowry is undeniable, but keep hearing Raps feel good about their chances with offer poised to start in $12 mil range

Lowry helped lead the Raptors to their first playoff appearance in five years last season.
