Rotowire
Lowry contributed eight points (3-4 FG, 2-3 3Pt), one rebound, one assist and one block in 21 minutes during Saturday's 116-96 victory over the Grizzlies.

76ers' Kyle Lowry: Tallies double-double in victory
Rotowire
Lowry ended with 11 points (4-6 FG, 3-5 3Pt), 10 assists, two blocks, one rebound and one steal over 38 minutes in Sunday's 135-120 win over Toronto.
Lowry handed out a game-high-tying assist total while connecting on a trio of threes and ending as one of six 76ers players with a double-digit point total over a double-double performance.

76ers' Kyle Lowry: Bounces back Friday
Rotowire
Lowry recorded 23 points (7-12 FG, 4-8 3Pt, 5-5 FT), three rebounds and six assists in 32 minutes during Friday's 117-114 loss to the Cavaliers.
Lowry was coming off two subpar outings, as he couldn't surpass the seven-point mark in the losses to the Kings and Clippers earlier this week. However, the veteran floor general turned things around and dazzled Friday, but he couldn't prevent the Sixers' third straight loss. Lowry is expected to remain in the starting lineup for the foreseeable future, though his numbers during the current month do not offer much promise. He's averaging 9.2 points, 4.6 assists, 2.9 rebounds and 0.9 steals across 29.6 minutes per game in 14 starts since the beginning of March.

76ers' Kyle Lowry: Horrible outing in return to action
Rotowire
Lowry closed Monday's 108-96 loss to the Kings with three points (1-4 FG, 1-4 3Pt), two rebounds, one assist and one steal in 25 minutes.
Lowry sat out the front end of the back-to-back for rest purposes and returned to the starting lineup against the Kings. The veteran has had some productive evenings with his new team, but his age is obviously showing. He isn't able to sustain consistent shot volume and leaves most of the ball-handling to Tyrese Maxey. De'Anthony Melton's (back) return will almost certainly end Lowry's tenure with the first unit.

76ers' Kyle Lowry: Getting rest Wednesday
Rotowire
Lowry has been ruled out for Wednesday's game against the Grizzlies for rest purposes.
Lowry will get a breather for the second leg of the back-to-back set after he logged 14 points, five assists, two rebounds and one steal in 36 minutes in Tuesday's 112-107 loss to the Nets. With Lowry, Tyrese Maxey (concussion) and De'Anthony Melton (back) all sitting out Wednesday, Cameron Payne, Jeff Dowtin and Ricky Council could all be in store for major upticks in playing time.

76ers' Kyle Lowry: Efficient in spot start
Rotowire
Lowry contributed 15 points (5-9 FG, 3-6 3Pt, 2-2 FT), six rebounds and 10 assists over 36 minutes during Friday's 121-114 victory over the Hornets.
Lowry made his first start since Jan. 17, and his first one since joining Philadelphia, and he looked absolutely impressive, posting a double-double and making a huge impact on both ends of the court. He's averaging 8.0 points, 5.5 assists and 3.5 rebounds per game since joining the 76ers. It remains to be seen if he'll start against Dallas on Sunday considering how depleted the Sixers are in terms of depth.

76ers' Kyle Lowry: Good to go for Thursday
Rotowire
Lowry is off the injury report for Thursday's game against the Knicks.
Lowry is slated to make his Philadelphia debut Thursday, after he had a chance to get acclimated with his new team coming out of the All-Star break. He'll likely challenge Cameron Payne for the top backup role behind Tyrese Maxey, though Maxey's prior experience playing off the ball should open up plenty of scenarios in which Lowry and Maxey share the floor together.

Rotowire
Lowry (not injury related) went through a full practice Wednesday, Lauren Rosen of the 76ers' official site reports.

76ers' Kyle Lowry: Won't play against Miami
Rotowire
Lowry is continuing his return-to-play ramp-up and will not play in Wednesday's game versus the Heat, Kyle Neubeck of AllPHLY.com reports.

The veteran point guard made 37 appearances, including 35 starts, for the Heat before being traded to the Hornets for Terry Rozier. Lowry was then bought out by Charlotte and joined Philadelphia, where he is expected to compete for backup point guard minutes with Cameron Payne behind Tyrese Maxey.

76ers' Kyle Lowry: Cleared for Wednesday
Rotowire
Lowry doesn't appear on the 76ers' injury report for Wednesday's game against the Heat.
Lowry reached a verbal agreement to join the 76ers over the weekend after he secured a buyout from the Hornets, but he had to wait until he formally cleared waivers Tuesday to finalize his one-year deal with Philadelphia. Given he hasn't played since Jan. 21 -- when he was still a member of the Heat team that the 76ers will face Wednesday -- Lowry could require some more practice time with Philadelphia before head coach Nick Nurse incorporates him into the rotation. Lowry at least looks poised to dress for Wednesday's contest, but it's unclear whether he'll immediately supplant Cameron Payne as starting point guard Tyrese Maxey's top backup, or if Lowry will be available merely in an emergency.
