Kyle Lowry swats LeBron James away (Video)
Toronto Raptors point guard Kyle Lowry went up and made sick block on LeBron James.
Kyle Lowry might only been six feet tall, but he can go up and contend with anyone if he wants to. Lowry, who has never really backed down from anyone one the court, has had some fantastic on-court battles with the best players in the league.
His latest highlight came against Cleveland Cavaliers superstar LeBron James, who thought he had a clear shot on the Raptors in the lane. As James went up to the hoop, it looked like he had a wide-open angle.
What he didn’t expect to see happen was Lowry coming from out of nowhere to his side to block his shot away.
At 6-8, James is more than tall enough to really get up for a shot. That didn’t stop Lowry from going up with him, before James could get all the way there.
Lowry might not have the prototypical size to be a shot blocker, but that hasn’t stopped him from playing tough defense his entire career, which allows him to make these types of plays.
Most people tend to get out of the way when James starts driving, but Lowry begged to differ.
