NBA champion Kyle Lowry has left a lasting impression on the Philadelphia 76ers during his brief time with the team, leading to speculation that he may return for the upcoming season.
According to Sixers reporter Michael Kaskey-Blomain, there are strong indications that Lowry will re-sign with the #sixers. While this is just one report, it seems likely given Lowry’s impact on the team.
Lowry had a two-season stint with the Miami Heat before being traded to the Charlotte Hornets last year. After reaching a buyout agreement with the Hornets, the six-time All-Star made the decision to join his hometown 76ers. In his 23 games with the team, Lowry averaged 8 points and 4.6 assists on 44.4% shooting. Due to the Sixers’ limited cap space, it is anticipated that Lowry will sign for the veteran’s minimum salary. His potential return has generated excitement among fans, who hold him in high regard.
On the other hand, the Sixers may also consider pursuing a younger, defensive-minded guard like former No. 1 pick Markelle Fultz.
