Jamison Battle just limped out of the game. Looked like he was coming out of the game for a sub anyway but he's headed to the locker room.

Kyle Lowry calls that “Probably one of the greatest moments of my basketball career,” seems very appreciative of the Toronto fan support.
Is also appreciative of his teammates pushing him to check in, and building the lead, as well.

Not exactly high quality from the gondola but what a moment. KLOE, man.

Lowry chirping back at Embiid that they're going "where you lost Game 7 at" is great stuff
Teammates marveled at the massive media scrum surrounding Kyle Lowry’s locker before Sunday’s game. It represented what Lowry means to Toronto, his second home, and the Sixers, his hometown team.
“I really give to them the purity of how I feel about them.”

Kyle Lowry returns to Toronto as a Raptors legend and Sixers leader: ‘I embrace it, and they embrace me’
The Sixers' back-to-back in Toronto could be Lowry's final trip as a player to the city where the North Philly native and former Villanova star became a six-time All-Star and an NBA champion.

Barnes has been excellent against a ton of defensive attention today. Stayed aggressive, good reads out of doubles, ball's moved well on rotation out of those. Great stuff.
