Kyle Lowry marks perhaps his final game in Toronto, the city where he spent nine seasons and won the 2019 NBA championship. TORONTO (AP) — It was a brief cameo at the end of a blowout win, but it meant everything to Philadelphia 76ers guard Kyle Lowry.
76ers head coach Nick Nurse had no choice but to call over 20-year veteran Kyle Lowry with 1:57 remaining in Monday’s game against the Raptors. An overwhelming echo of, “We want Lowry!” rang through Scotiabank Arena, and the fan favorite was welcomed to a standing ovation as he took off his warm-ups and subbed into the game.
The Sixers' 2-1 road trip came with sentimental — and spicy — emotions. Lowry's send-off and Embiid's liftoff were the highlight of the week.
