GAME. BLOUSES.
After scoring only four points and missing all six of his 3-point attempts in Saturday’s Game 1 loss, Kyle Lowry played with a vengeance in Game 2 on Tuesday night. The Toronto Raptors guard dropped 22 points, including the jumper that sealed the 106-100 victory with 10 seconds to play. The Raptors will travel to Milwaukee with the series tied, 1-1.
DeMar DeRozan put up 23 points and Serge Ibaka scored 13 of his 16 in the second half. Toronto is 5-1 in Game 2s on its home court.
