The 76ers, Lakers and Magic are among the teams known to possess interest in Lowry if he becomes an unrestricted free agent — with Orlando also in the mix as a team that has expressed exploratory trade interest in the former NBA championship-winning point guard as well.

If the Sixers could dump korkmaz into some team’s TPE, while taking no money back (offer a second?) that leaves them about $1M under the tax, so they’d be fine to sign Lowry to a vet min. That might be the teams dream outcome now.

Moving Hayward/Lowry for future bad salary and picks still seems the best strategy ahead of the deadline.
Not only are the picks useful currency, but retaining a contract that can be used in future trades would be useful. With $40+ million in space, I think they can use some up… – 2:52 PM

Haliburton, Turner, Smith and Mathurin are all questionable going into Sunday’s game at Charlotte.
Hornets will be without Ball, Hayward, Lowry and Williams.

More on this storyline
(If Lowry is in fact bought out, expect the Philadelphia 76ers to have interest, although that information was prior to Joel Embiid’s meniscus injury last weekend.) -via Action Network / February 4, 2024
The Magic have been on this track for over a year, looking for long-term help at point guard. They were involved in talks last year for Fred VanVleet before the Raptors held onto him (and subsequently lost him in free agency). Orlando has kicked around every potential option on the board, and the latest interest involves two veterans: Kyle Lowry and Chris Paul, according to sources. -via Action Network / February 4, 2024
Charlotte still considers Lowry a possible re-trade candidate, sources said, while the Hornets are also evaluating trade options for Gordon Hayward, sources said. Two other players receiving quite a bit of interest from rival teams are P.J. Washington and reserve center Nick Richards, according to league sources. -via Yahoo! Sports / February 2, 2024
