Fans Left in Disbelief as Former NBA Champion, Who Beat Stephen Curry and Kevin Durant in the Finals, Silences Health Critics With Massive Transformation

The year 2019 was a great year for Kyle Lowry. The point guard took his team, the Toronto Raptors to an NBA championship, defeating Stephen Curry and Kevin Durant’s Golden State Warriors. Curry and Durant were on the verge of creating history and almost completed a three-peat. However, Kawhi Leonard and Kyle Lowry led the Raptors to stop their drastic run and bring the Raptors their first-ever NBA championship.?

The Golden State Warriors were struggling through injuries at that time. Klay Thompson tore his ACL, and soon after KD got an Achilles injury. A Stephen Curry-led Warriors was not enough to beat the Raptors.

Kyle Lowry has since been under scrutiny for his health. His fitness has become the talk of the town. Lowry signed a three-year $85 million contract with the Miami Heat in the 2022 off-season. Lowry could not stay fit for the intense post-season and fell apart. The Miami Heat faced elimination at the hands of NBA finalists Boston Celtics. Boston eventually lost to Stephen Curry’s Warriors in six games.

Lowry said in the post-game press conference of the Miami Heat‘s loss against Boston that he wished he was better prepared to play at higher levels. In a recent tweet by NBACentral, Lowry looks like he has accomplished the transformation that he set out to. The tweet instantly garnered attention and became a trending topic. Lowry’s transformation caught 17,000 likes and over 1000 re-tweets.?

The former champion who beat Stephen Curry and Kevin Durant?once failed the Miami Heat’s 18% body fat test in the off-season. He has since silenced the critics and left NBA Twitter fans in shock.

Lowry, who once shockingly defeated Stephen Curry, leaves NBA in disbelief again.

Lowry’s inability to meet Pat Riley and the Miami Heat’s 18% body fat requirements was the tipping point for him to induce change. Riley also called out the fitness levels of the former All-Star. Here are some of the most noteworthy reactions to Lowry’s transformation:

Moreover, this transformation had NBA Twitter going crazy! Fans were missing the older version of Lowry and said that his fitness was not his issue. It appears that Lowry has taken the challenges given to him by the franchise seriously and has shown up with improvements. It would be interesting to see if Lowry can return to the All-Star form of before.

Lowry finishes his second transformation in his 16-year career.

Kyle Lowry and his fitness have always been his struggling point. When Lowry was with the Toronto Raptors between 2012 and 2020, he addressed the issue of his weight and conditioning. In 2015, a new and transformed Lowry took the court for the Raptors. A report by ESPN covered the former Raptor’s prior transformation.

Then Raptors coach Dwayne Casey said, “I hardly recognized Kyle! As an organization, we knew what he was planning to do, but when I woke up that morning and saw the photo, I was like, ‘Whoa!'”
