Toronto Raptors point guard Kyle Lowry (foot) is a game-time decision for Monday versus the Detroit Pistons, per head coach Nick Nurse.
Nurse said that the foot issue Lowry is dealing with is related to a toe infection that caused him to miss time earlier this season. Aron Baynes replaced Lowry in the Raptors' lineup on Sunday but only played 15 minutes. Fred VanVleet will likely take on more usage and Rodney Hood could see more minutes off the bench if Lowry remains out Monday.
numberFire’s models project Lowry for 37.1 FanDuel points versus the Pistons and he has a salary of $6,500 on Monday’s 11-game slate. Lowry is one of our top-five values at the point guard position on Monday. VanVleet has a salary of $7,400 and is considered a top-seven option at his position even if Lowry does play.
