• 76ers' Kyle Lowry: Out for next three games

  4D ago • By RotoWire

  The 76ers announced Tuesday that Lowry has a right hip strain and will miss the team's next three games before being re-evaluated early next week, Tony Jones of The Athletic reports. Lowry likely suffered the injury in Monday's 106-89 loss to Miami. With Tyrese Maxey (hamstring) expected to return to action this week, Lowry was likely to lose his spot in the starting five even if he hadn't been dealing with the hip injury. Jared McCain should end up serving as Maxey's partner in the starting backcourt, while Lowry's absence could open up a few extra minutes off the bench for Jeff Dowtin and Eric Gordon.

• 76ers' Kyle Lowry: Scoreless in 19 minutes

  4D ago • By RotoWire

  Lowry ended Monday's 106-89 loss to the Heat with zero points (0-3 FG, 0-3 3Pt), one rebound, one assist and one steal in 19 minutes. This was Lowry's second scoreless dud in his last four outings, all of which have been losses for the 76ers. He's looked a step slow in recent games, and he's been unable to take advantage of his opportunities with Tyrese Maxey (hamstring) on the shelf.

• 76ers' Kyle Lowry: Quiet in Friday's start

  14D ago • By RotoWire

  Lowry closed with five points (1-7 FG, 1-6 3Pt, 2-2 FT), three rebounds, six assists and one block across 32 minutes during Friday's 116-106 loss to the Lakers. With Tyrese Maxey (hamstring) sidelined, Lowry made his fifth start of the season and saw a season high in minutes. The increased workload didn't lead to increased production, however. The 38-year-old point guard is no longer the scoring threat he was in his Raptors heyday, but Lowry's assists, threes and steals might provide some deep-league fantasy value while he's in an elevated role.

• 76ers' Kyle Lowry: To fill in at point guard

  16D ago • By RotoWire

  Lowry is expected to start at point guard while Tyrese Maxey (hamstring) recovers from injury, Adam Aaronson of PhillyVoice.com reports. Lowry was the likely candidate to enter the starting lineup in Maxey's place, but it's still nice to hear confirmation from head coach Nick Nurse. Lowry has already made four starts this season, averaging 8.3 points, 2.0 rebounds, 1.8 assists and 2.0 steals in 21.8 minutes. Nurse also noted that Reggie Jackson would work as the backup to Lowry, while Jeff Dowtin could also factor into the rotation in the backcourt.

• 76ers' Kyle Lowry: Plays well off bench

  18D ago • By RotoWire

  Lowry finished Monday's 118-116 loss to the Suns with 13 points (5-8 FG, 3-6 3Pt), two rebounds, seven assists, one block and one steal in 28 minutes. Lowry moved to a reserve role Monday with Paul George (knee) making his 2024-25 regular-season debut. However, the veteran point guard was still able to make a solid impact, and that may continue to be the case while Joel Embiid (knee) and his massive usage rate are on the shelf.
