DeMar DeRozan and Kyle Lowry might take the unofficial award for the most entertaining backcourt in the NBA, both on and off the court.
Currently in the middle of their sixth season as teammates, Lowry and DeRozan have gone from not saying a single word to each other to best friends over the years and they have one of the most entertaining relationships away from the court as they like to poke as much fun at each other as possible.
Following the Raptors’ 117-104 victory over the Orlando Magic on Wednesday night, Lowry did his best to distract DeRozan during his post-game media scrum but the Raptors’ all-time leading scorer turned it around on his point guard and took shots at him instead.
All the shouting ended up getting to DeRozan as he appeared to lose his train of thought mid-sentence, but he recovered nicely by turning his answer into a friendly jab at Lowry.
The win was the Raptors’ second in a row as they improve to an Eastern Conference-best 43-17.
