But that doesn’t mean the team isn’t looking to get even better this summer.</p><p><a href="https://sny.tv/articles/kyle-lowry-knicks-radar-point-guards-offseason">According to SNY</a>, the Knicks have Raptors veteran guard Kyle Lowry on their radar. Lowry is set to become a free agent after this season. The 35-year-old was on the verge of a trade deadline move back in March, but he ultimately stayed put. However, with the direction of the franchise uncertain, Lowry will likely be on his way out.</p><p>The Knicks have been linked to numerous point guards over the last week. They’re also expected to pursue Dennis Schroder and Lonzo Ball in free agency as they look to strengthen their backcourt.</p><p>If there was one weakness in the rotation, it would be at the 1 with Elfrid Payton. Immanuel Quickley is developing into a terrific player and Derrick Rose is great as the sixth man, but the Knicks could use a legitimate starting guard to pair with RJ Barrett and budding superstar Julius Randle.</p><p>Lowry <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/sports/nba/players/kyle-lowry/a9520952/stats">is averaging 17.2 points and 7.3 assists this season</a> for the Raps and would be a solid addition in New York from a scoring and playmaking standpoint. He’s expected to demand a multi-year deal, but the Knicks do have more than enough cap space to accommodate his desires.</p><p>Another longshot for Tom Thibodeau’s team is Damian Lillard. However, he has voiced his aspirations to win in Portland. Nevertheless, <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/sports/nba/new-york-knicks/roster">the Knicks will definitely be making some moves</a> this summer, and Kyle Lowry could be one of them.</p><figure class="op-tracker"></figure></article>    </body></html>

Given Lowry’s reported interest in playing for a contender in the years of his career, and the Raptors’ need to acquire young, controllable assets as they embark on a retooling effort of their roster, Sixers president Daryl Morey should be able to find a way to cobble together a deal so long as he is willing to part with the requisite draft assets and prospects. That, along with one of their sizable veteran contracts <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/sports/nba/philadelphia-76ers/roster" rel="noopener">on the roster</a> — such as Danny Green — should get the team within an approximate distance of making the salary cap math work.</p><p>The Sixers were reportedly one of the strongest contenders for Lowry’s services at the trade deadline in March. Though Toronto and Philly engaged in deep trade talks, the Raptors’ insistence on not only receiving Matisse Thybulle and Tyrese Maxey but an additional two first-round picks ultimately resulted in the scuttling of the deal. Now, with Toronto possibly on the verge of losing its franchise point guard for nothing, Morey will be in a better position to demand a drop in the Raptors’ asking price in sign-and-trade talks. This is especially true if Lowry really wants to return home.</p><p>For a general manager who routinely performs magic when working around the salary cap, acquiring Kyle Lowry would be another coup for Daryl Morey and the Sixers.</p><figure class="op-tracker"></figure></article>    </body></html>

As a matter of fact, the Toronto Raptors guard is actually one of the godfathers of Butler’s daughter.</p><p>In a <a href="https://twitter.com/klowww710/status/1387149649178501122">recent interview</a>, Butler discussed his relationship with Lowry. The Heat star was very careful with his words though, as he clearly did not want to receive a hefty fine from the league for tampering:</p><blockquote>“Probably Kyle Lowry,” Butler responded when asked who his favorite person to go against is. “Just ’cause he’s one of my absolute best friends. He’s a godfather of my daughter. As competitive as he is, we’re always laughing, we’re always joking around. I want to say something else but the NBA is gonna look at this and be like, ‘Oh my god, it’s tampering,’ so I’m just going to leave it.”</blockquote><p>It’s hard not to wonder what Butler wanted to say about Lowry here. Perhaps he has long been hoping to team up with the six-time All-Star point guard? If this is the case then Butler was definitely smart about not saying it out loud. With how stringent the NBA has been with its anti-tampering policy, a simple statement such as that could have burned quite a hole in Butler’s pocket.</p><p>On our end, however, we’re completely free to speculate. It’s no secret that the Raptors <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/nba-trade-deadline-raptors-thought-they-were-on-goal-line-kyle-lowry-trade-sixers/" rel="noopener">tried (and failed) to move</a> Lowry prior to this season’s trade deadline. He’s also on an expiring deal and is set to become a free agent in the offseason. Could Kyle Lowry be taking his talents to South Beach soon? We’ll see. I’m pretty sure Jimmy Butler would love to see that happen.</p><figure class="op-tracker"></figure></article>    </body></html>

On Monday night in their win over the Cleveland Cavaliers, the Montreal native tied his career-high with 14 points, most of which came off assists from star point guard Kyle Lowry. Birch himself admitted that it was the “easiest” 14 points he has ever scored in his career. Apparently, Lowry is making a concerted effort in getting the 28-year old a nice bag this coming summer.</p><p>Via Josh Lewenberg of TSN Sports:</p><figure class="op-interactive"><blockquote class="twitter-tweet"><p dir="ltr" lang="en">Kyle Lowry on his quick chemistry with Khem Birch: "(I'm) trying to get him paid."</p><p>— Josh Lewenberg (@JLew1050) <a href="https://twitter.com/JLew1050/status/1386866237100146690?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw" target="_blank">April 27, 2021</a></p></blockquote><p></p></figure><p>Lowry didn’t need to score much in Toronto’s 112-96 victory over the Cavs. He scored just nine points, but did dish out 10 assists on the evening, the majority of which wound up becoming easy buckets for Birch.</p><p>Birch’s arrival in Toronto has become quite the story. The 6-foot-9 big man was born in Montreal and for obvious reasons, grew up a Raptors fan. After not being drafted coming out of UNLV, Birch eventually made his way to the NBA in 2017 with the Orlando Magic.</p><p>After four seasons, the Magic waived Birch earlier this month. The Raptors, who desperately needed bigger bodies up front, immediately swooped in to sign the Canadian. So far, his eight games with Toronto suggests he is a perfect fit. He is averaging <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/sports/nba/players/khem-birch/a4b10908/stats">9.4 points</a>, 6.3 rebounds, and 1.5 blocks with the Raptors so far.</p><p>Per <a href="https://www.spotrac.com/nba/toronto-raptors/khem-birch-15786/cash-earnings/">Spotrac</a>, Birch has made a little over $8 million in his career. With the way he’s playing so far in a Raptors uniform (and with a little help from Kyle Lowry), Birch may finally get his big break in the NBA.</p><figure class="op-tracker"></figure></article>    </body></html>
