Lowry leaves Game 2 vs. Cavaliers with sprained ankle
It's only getting worse for the Toronto Raptors.
Raptors point guard Kyle Lowry left Game 2 against the Cleveland Cavaliers after suffering an apparent leg injury.
Norman Powell fell into Lowry's leg following a rebounding battle with Tristan Thompson early in the third quarter. He stayed down before walking off into the tunnel under his own power, but did return to the game shortly after.

A noticeably gimpy Lowry toughed it out for a few minutes, scoring a basket and making some free throws, but he checked out late in the third as Cleveland stretched its lead into a blowout.
He finished the night with 20 points and five assists in 30 minutes. Lowry has been the Raptors' best player in the series, although his play has done little to affect the outcome of Cleveland's inevitable victories.
