Jose Calderon plays 21 minutes, Lowry hot
Jose Calderon - G - Toronto Raptors
Jan. 17, 2013 - 3:30 AM ET
Jose Calderon saw just 21 minutes for nine points, two rebounds and six assists on Wednesday, while Kyle Lowry came off the bench and went nuts (again).
He was dealing with a hip injury, but the problem for Calderon going forward is that Lowry is on fire and went off for 26 points in 34 minutes tonight, after taking over Tuesday's game in the fourth quarter when he scored 19 of his 21 points in just 15 minutes. Calderon is still the starter for now, but it may not be long before Dwane Casey gives the job back to Lowry. Calderon's owners should probably plan accordingly, although nothing is set in stone as to the starting point guard for the Raptors.
