NEW YORK — Kyle Lowry returning from injury at this point in the Philadelphia 76ers’ season was a bit of a surprise. The team has nothing to play for besides positioning in the draft lottery. But for Lowry, the love for the game is too strong to keep him out when he’s healthy enough to […]

Playing for head coach Tom Thibodeau is not easy. Many players will back that up, including those on the New York Knicks. He demands copious intensity and minutes from his core veteran players.
