28. Toronto Raptors: Kyle Lowry, 74.5 Win Shares

No surprise here, the famously touted Greatest Toronto Raptor of All Time is also No. 1 in total Win Shares for the franchise. Kyle Lowry played nine seasons north of the border in The 6, which actually came after 2.5 years in Memphis and 3.5 years in Houston. Some might call him a late bloomer. Lowry’s first trip to the All-Star Game wasn’t until he was 28 years old.

Pascal Siakam is currently seventh for the Raptors while Fred VanVleet is 10th. But it’s difficult not to wonder if the top spot will be reserved for Scottie Barnes one day. Barnes’ Win Shares total in his rookie season was 6.6, a number that Lowry bested just once in his first nine years in the league.
