Kyle Lowry’s giving it another go with the Sixers.
Lowry said at his April 13 exit interview that he planned to play one more NBA season and hoped it would be with his hometown Sixers. “Kyle’s championship experience and Hall-of-Fame resume speaks for itself,” Sixers president of basketball operations Daryl Morey said in a team press release.
“He is a proven floor general with tremendous knowledge of the game that is a resource to everyone in the organization. It’s only fitting that his 20th NBA season will be right here in Philadelphia, the city he calls home.”Lowry struggled with a right hip injury for much of last season. The Villanova product appeared in just 35 games, averaged 18.8 minutes and posted 3.9 points, 2.7 assists and 1.9 rebounds per contest. Lowry missed most of February and all of March but returned for two games at the tail end of the Sixers’ 24-58 season.he said on April 1 after a loss to the Knicks at Madison Square Garden. “Listen, we’re privileged and we’re honored to play the game of basketball. I love this game at the highest level. It’s provided for me and my family, my friends with everything that I could ask for. “So I wanted to try to go out there and play, and just have fun. You don’t know how long this game is going to last for each individual, so just go out there and enjoy the process. Just enjoy being out there and in the game.”
