Kyle Lowry is listed as 6-feet in the Toronto Raptors media guide, perhaps a bit generously. The Nuggets list Nikola Jokic at 6-foot-10.
Lowry doesn’t really care about such measurements, because Kyle Lowry Over Everything. If you thought that used-way-too-often-lately term had it’s limits, it does not.
To wit, Lowry blocked Jokic at the rim in the third quarter on Thursday night. Lowry BLOCKED A NEAR 7-FOOTER AT THE RIM. What can’t this guy do?

Lowry has two blocks on the night, giving him 12 on the season. Since joining the Raptors in 2012-13, Lowry has the fourth-highest block rate for any 6-foot or shorter player with 1,000 minutes to his name. That’s random, but it’s something.
