TORONTO - For many, it would have already become an elephant in the room, an awkward matter best ignored. For Kyle Lowry, its become an accepted reality. He will be traded. The question is, when and where? The Raptors point guard is widely believed to be next on general manager Masai Ujiris chopping block after the first domino - Rudy Gay, Lowrys best friend - fell last week. On Thursday, multiple outlets - namely ESPN and Yahoo Sports - linked Lowry to trade discussion with a number of interested teams, including the Knicks and the Nets. A day later, as the Raptors got set to host the road-weary 76ers, the easy answer for Lowry would have been none at all. He could have brushed off the reports, spouted off cliches or dodged the media all together. But he did no such thing. "Honestly, I started hearing [the rumours] once I left here for practice [Thursday] and then it was crazy for, like, four hours," he said Friday morning. "At night, I turned my phone off and went to sleep. I wake up, if Im traded, Im traded and if not, Ill come to shootaround." "Everybody read everything yesterday, seen everything yesterday. To this point, Im still a Raptor and Im focused on tonight, playing against the 76ers." Moving Lowry, who was acquired by the previous regime prior to last season, has become a priority for Ujiri. Averaging 14.6 points and 6.7 assists through 20 games, Lowry - owed $6.2 million this year - will become an unrestricted free agent at the end of the season and its clear he is not part of the Raptors long-term plans. Lowry has not been in contact with Ujiri regarding his future and doesnt plan to reach out. "If he trades me, then Ill talk to him," Lowry said. "Hes always been a GM thats been kind of in the background. Hes not in the forefront, he lets us play and thats how hes been this whole year." Although one report stated that hes wanted to be moved for most of the season, Lowry clarified that he has not asked the Raptors GM for a trade. "No, none whatsoever," said coach Dwane Casey, asked if Lowry has expressed a desire to be traded. "Thats the first Ive heard of that and Ive never heard of Kyle or sensed Kyle wanted to be traded at all. I have no knowledge of that." While the market for Gay was limited, leading to Sundays sudden seven-player deal with Sacramento, theres far more interest in Lowry and his affordable, expiring contract. With that in mind, Ujiri will not be rushed into moving his starting point guard. Lowry is a professional and has obvious motivation to continue playing hard, auditioning for his next contract, but his inevitable departure is an obvious distraction to him and the rest of the team. "Yeah of course, I mean no one can say it doesnt [weigh on them] but at the same time, you have to know that this is a business," he stated. "You have to know the situation you are in, the situation that youre going to be in. You cant let it affect you too much because you still have to go out here and do a job and try to win for the team youre playing for." He and his teammates are trying their best to approach the seemingly uncomfortable situation with a sense of humour. "We all read HoopsHype," he admitted with a smirk on his face. "You see it everyday, you see it whenever they update it and everyone talks about it. But we joke about it a little bit. We make it more of a lighter-type thing, dont make it a heavy-hearted thing, make it like a joke, like hey man, you still here?" For now and until Ujiri finds an offer he likes, Lowry remains a Raptor. He will continue to play and play hard, because its the right thing to do but mostly because its in his best interest. All the while, his eventual replacement and newly-acquired point guard Greivis Vasquez will back him up and even spend some time alongside him in the Raptors backcourt. The situation is what it is. It will be as awkward as the team allows it be, until - in the very near future - its dealt with, until speculation finally becomes reality. Until then, we wait and so does the team and its point guard.

Kyle Lowry supplied 20 points with nine rebounds and five assists and Jonas Valanciunas deposited 18 points with 12 rebounds for the Raptors, who closed their franchise-record seven-game homestand with three straight wins and a 6-1 record. Toronto also won its fifth straight game over Milwaukee, which had its three- game winning streak snapped with the setback. It was playing its third game in four nights. We didnt do anything but travel yesterday, so I dont think that was an issue, Bucks coach Jason Kidd said. The Bucks were led by Jabari Parkers 15 points, while Ersan Ilyasova netted 14 off the bench and Brandon Knight added 11. Early in the first, Lowry, Terrence Ross and Amir Johnson each hit 3-pointers as part of a 22-4 run that staked the Raptors to a 24-7 lead. Milwaukee ended the flurry with six straight points and it cut the deficit to 37-27 after 12 minutes. The Bucks were limited to just one baskeet over a seven-minute span in the second quarter as Toronto built a 57-32 lead.dddddddddddd. Williams closed the half with a 3 at the buzzer for a 71-45 margin at the break. Then it got ugly. Lowry hit back-to-back 3s prior to Ross capping a 17-1 spurt with a triple that extended the margin to 94-51 with over four minutes left in the third. Milwaukee was held without a basket for 4:10 during the run, and the Raptors won it going away. Bruno Caboclo, the Raptors 20th overall selection in the 2014 NBA Draft, entered early in the fourth quarter for his first career appearance. Caboclo quickly made his presence felt as Williams lobbed a pass to the Brazilian for an alley-oop slam. I had butterflies in my stomach, said Caboclo. Everybody saying my name was incredible. He then nailed a 3-pointer on the following possession and finished with eight points. Game Notes Torontos largest lead was 52 ... The Raptors shot 45-for-86 (52.3 percent) from the floor, and limited Milwaukee to 27-of-54 (36.5 percent) shooting.
