Kyle Lowry stands atop the basketball world as a member of the newly crowned NBA champion Toronto Raptors. He might also have made himself the people’s champion at Monday’s victory parade in Toronto by removing what appeared to be Invisalign braces (or a similar product) from his teeth before he spoke.
Check out the move here:
Lowry later departed for a “well-deserved vacation,” so he wasn’t available to comment, a team spokeswoman told HuffPost.
Invisalign tweeted a GIF of Lowry smiling, with the caption: “When you have that #invisalign level confidence.”
When you have that #invisalign level confidence... 🙌 #KLow #WeTheNorth pic.twitter.com/C8eSl6SX6D

Kyle Lowry just took out his Invisalign before stepping to the mic to deliver his championship rally speech, and he’s never been more relatable to me.
