Philadelphia 76ers<\/a> guard Kyle Lowry has put together a fantastic career across his 19 years in the NBA. He has been named an All-Star six times, made an All-NBA team in 2016, and won a championship with the Toronto Raptors<\/a>. He has affectionately earned the nickname “GROAT” for Greatest Raptor of All Time.<\/p>\n

As Lowry’s career begins to wind down, the Philadelphia native is finishing it out with the 76ers. He is playing a mentor type of role at this stage of his career, but can still produce in spurts when used the right way.<\/p>\n

In terms of his Hall of Fame chances, ESPN has placed him in the “veterans on the bubble” category<\/a> along with guys like DeMar DeRozan and Jrue Holiday, for examples:<\/p>\n

Guards Lowry and Holiday have very similar cases, and while their raw stats might not look Hall-worthy, they should get boosts as consummate winners and respected all-around contributors.<\/p>\n

Lowry has career averages of 13.9 points, 6.1 assists, and 4.2 rebounds. He was phenomenal in his nine years in Toronto when he and DeRozan helped turn the Raptors into a legitimate contender in the East.<\/p>\n
