Kyle Lowry is on the move again.
The Charlotte Hornets' veteran agreed to a buyout with the team on Saturday and is signing with the Philadelphia 76ers for the remainder of the 2023-24 campaign for $2.8 million, according to ESPN's Adrian Wojnarowski.
Lowry, who is from Philadelphia and played college basketball at Villanova, "long hoped to return to Philadelphia to join the Sixers," Wojnarowski added.

The move doesn't come as much of a surprise. It always seemed inevitable that Charlotte was only a temporary home for the veteran point guard after the Miami Heat traded him and a 2027 lottery-protected first-round pick to the Hornets for Terry Rozier.
