When Kyle Lowry left the bench for the locker room in Game 2 of the Eastern Conference Finals against the Cavaliers, he immediately brought speculation upon him. Why did he leave the his team in the middle of the game when he seemingly wasn't injured?

According to Raptors head coach Dwane Casey, it was just a bathroom break.

That excuse seems a little suspect, especially since Lowry himself said he just needed to clear his mind and catch his breath. Casey was likely joking, but let's just take it at face value for a moment and appreciate the humor behind it.

Wonder if J.J. Redick, who called out Lowry for this stunt, would buy the bathroom excuse?
