Kyle Lowry Will Return To All-Star Game
Kyle Lowry made the All-Star team six times representing the Toronto Raptors. He was selected to be on the team every year from 2015-2020. That streak was snapped in 2021, but he will be selected to the game once again this upcoming season.
The Heat have had an All-Star every year since 2005 except twice; 2017 and 2021. They will have their streak started back up this season by Lowry and possibly even Jimmy Butler or Bam Adebayo, who both made the team in 2020.
Miami should be an improved team this season, and usually, teams that win will get the benefit of the doubt when it comes to filling out the All-Star team roster.
If they are squarely in the mix for home-court advantage in the Eastern Conference as many believe they will be, they will have at least one representative in the All-Star game.

Lowry had borderline All-Star-worthy stats, averaging 17.2 points, 7.3 assists, 5.4 rebounds and 1.0 steals per game. However, the Raptors were not very good last season and Lowry was unable to stay on the court, playing in only 46 games. But, his statistics were right on par with some of his other All-Star campaigns.
