After getting the chance to play for his hometown team during the 2023-24 season, veteran point guard Kyle Lowry is reportedly staying put this summer.

According to ESPN's Adrian Wojnarowski and Shams Charania of The Athletic and Stadium, Lowry agreed to re-sign with the Philadelphia 76ers on a one-year deal on Thursday. The Philadelphia native had originally joined the team on a $2.8 million deal for the remainder of last season after receiving a contract buyout from the Charlotte Hornets in February.

NBA insider Marc Stein reported on June 23 that Lowry "is widely expected to re-sign with the 76ers," so his decision isn't much of a surprise.
