How Did Raptors Guard Kyle Lowry Make This Seemingly Blocked Layup?

Here’s something you don’t see every day.

Raptors point guard Kyle Lowry had what looked like an easy layup in the first quarter against the Atlanta Hawks Wednesday. However, Hawks forward Kent Bazemore came from behind for the apparent block. But instead of the ball being tipped off the glass or rim, it went straight up into the air and into the hoop, just like Lowry drew it up. You couldn’t do that twice in a million tries.

The only thing missing was a pair of sunglasses floating down over Lowry’s head and the phrase “deal with it.”
