Sixers to sign former Raptors guard Jeff Dowtin Jr. to a two-way deal

The Philadelphia 76ers are making a few minor roster moves to continue moving forward under the guidance of coach Nick Nurse.

The Sixers waived two-way forward Kenneth Lofton Jr. after Friday’s 121-114 win over the Charlotte Hornets. That cleared the way for the Sixers to bring in a former Toronto Raptors guard.

The Sixers plan to sign Jeff Dowtin Jr. to a two-way deal. He played 25 games for the Raptors in the 2022-23 season averaging 2.4 points and 1.2 assists. He has been with Philadelphia’s G League affiliate, the Delaware Blue Coats, and was averaging 21.
