Kyle Lowry and DeMar DeRozan have the best bromance in sports and with DeMar DeRozan’s departure from the Raptors on Wednesday, people are taking it pretty hard.
From a basketball prospective, people are pretty torn on what they think of the deal, but from an emotional perspective Raptors fans are pretty devastated. Kyle and DeMar have been the key parts of what has made the past couple of years the greatest era in Raptors history.
While they have excelled together on the court, what we’re remembering at a time like this is their relationship. Here are the seven most memorable from their bromance:
All-Star Game Photobombs
Going to the All-Star game together, you knew they were going to be involved in some antics.
DeMar DeRozan Interviewing Lowry
This is just one of many post-game moments with Kyle and DeMar, but DeRozan taking the mic just sticks out more than the others. Since then, they’ve video-bombed each other, interfered with each other’s interviews and done many of them together.
DeRozan Naming the Duo “Neo” and “Morpheus”
Probably the most recent moment together, in the 2018 NBA Playoffs DeMar went off and then compared himself to Neo from the Matrix. Of course, there’s no Neo without Morpheus.
Kyle Lowry Roasting DeMar’s Pump Fakes
There are countless scrum moments that had both players cracking up, but this one stands out with a hearty laugh from DeRozan at the end.
Making Kevin Durant Jealous
In 2016, after he played with Lowry and DeRozan on Team USA, even KD was jealous of their bromance.

This photo sums up one the greatest era in Raptors history, and Kyle and DeMar were the faces of the squad.
Every Cabbie Interview Together
Their relationship was never on display quite like it was in their interviews with Cabbie. He talked about their bromance a lot with them and they loved to play games throughout the interview.
While they will no doubt remain close friends, we’ll miss these teammate moments between the two star Raptors.
