Veteran Point Guard Kyle Lowry Reveals His Top Three Most Difficult Point Guard Opponents

Toronto traded Kyle Lowry to the Miami Heat at the beginning of the free agency. He was arguably the most veteran player on the Raptors’ roster before he moved to the Heat. He recently had a sit down with CJ McCollum on the radio where they chatted about several things. Kyle discussed how he got into the game by looking for basketball tryouts in the newspaper with his brother.

Further, he speaks about how he’s improved his game over the years, what winning the championship in Toronto felt like and what that team and city meant to him. Moreover, he talks about his last season with Toronto and his departure to Miami.

He also offers some crazy Drake memories from his time in Canada, as well as his top three most difficult guards to face in the league. Despite these stories, one of the most ear-catching parts was when Lowry spoke about the top three guards he faced in the league.

Kyle Lowry reveals the top three most tough players he faced at point guard

CJ McCollum asked Kyle, “Who are your top three most difficult guards to play in the league?”. Kyle mentioned the exclusive cream of point guards in the league as an answer to that question. He said that Damian Lillard, Russell Westbrook, and Stephen Curry were the three most difficult guards he has ever faced in the league.

Kyle described Damian Lillard as “You never know how he’s going to shoot the ball when he’s going to shoot the ball.” CJ McCollum did not take a second to agree with Kyle on this.

Lowry put Russell Westbrook second on his list. He said, “Russ ain’t stopping like he’s going a thousand miles an hour and he ain’t stopping.”

Following that, Kyle put Stephen Curry up there with them and referred to him as the “light skin assassin.” He defined Curry’s game as “There is no type of conscience it’s just alright whatever, I’m gonna get this bucket.”
