Toronto Raptors point guard Kyle Lowry left Wednesday’s game against the Minnesota Timberwolves with a back contusion and did not return.

Lowry appeared to have hurt his back in the third quarter after going hard to the basket. He went to the locker room shortly after and was quickly ruled out for the night. The extent of the injury is not known at this time.
