Kyle Lowry’s retirement celebration kicks off with a golf day in Toronto, featuring a surprise cameo from DeMar DeRozan—yes, even though he’s not a golfer. DeMar, who spent nine unforgettable years with the Raptors and holds their all-time records for games played and points, reaffirmed that Toronto is his true home and the birthplace of his career. Though he’s now with the Nuggets after stints with the Spurs, he treasures the friendships forged in the city and still feels the love from fans whenever he returns. When asked if his jersey deserves to be retired alongside Lowry’s, DeMar’s answer was clear: absolutely. Lowry, whose number 7 will be honored on January 10th, echoed that sentiment—and DeMar plans to be there. The festivities? A block party at Jurassic Park, a gala, and more—a perfect send-off for a legend who gave everything to the Raptors and their fans.
