Kyle Lowry (rest) set to return Friday for 76ers
Philadelphia 76ers guard Kyle Lowry is not on the injury report for Friday's game against the New Orleans Pelicans.
What It Means:
Lowry is ready to return after resting on Wednesday in the second leg of a back-to-back. Tyrese Maxey will miss a third consecutive game due to a concussion, so Lowry should start and play extended minutes. Nicolas Batum will likely move back to the bench after replacing Lowry in the starting lineup on Wednesday.
Lowry played 36.0 minutes and scored 23.9 FanDuel points on Tuesday as a starter, with 14 points (5-9 field goals, 4-7 three-pointers), 2 rebounds, 5 assists, and 1 steal. The Pelicans are allowing the fifth-fewest FanDuel points per game to the point guard position this season.
