NBA Free Agency: 3 best landing spots for Kyle Lowry

Kyle Lowry NBA free agency destination: Philadelphia 76ers

One of the favorites to nab Lowry at the trade deadline, making another run to bring him home to the Philadelphia 76ers makes sense. They are in need of a primary ballhandler who can create his own shot and have been for quite some time. Ben Simmons has been the nominal point guard but after another postseason collapse changes are coming.

Setting up the likely three-team sign-and-trade that would be required to make this work is certainly difficult but if there are two executives in the league who you would trust to make the deal work, Daryl Morrey and Masai Ujiri are high on that list. On the court, Lowry fits the city he was no raised in perfectly.

This would immediately make the Sixers one of the favorites to win it all. They were the top seed in the Conference this season with a non-scorer running the offense. Lowry would bring a level of experience and confidence to the team they have lacked since Jimmy Butler left. He has taken a slight step back defensively but is still more than competitive on that end of the court. Figuring out the roster around him, Embiid and either Simmons or the players they get back in a trade would take some work but it is the makings of a title team.
