Trade: Kyle Lowry On The Move To Lowly Eastern Conference Team

January 23, 2024 , ,


Kyle Lowry's days as a Miami Heat guard are over, as he has been traded to the Charlotte Hornets in exchange for 9-year veteran Terry Rozier.

The Heat also send a 2027 first-round pick to the Hornets.  

It's quite likely that Lowry will enter the buyout market after the trade deadline passes, as it seems unlikely that he will want to play out his remaining NBA days with a bottom-feeder team. For their part, however, the Hornets are currently insisting that they have no plans to work on a buyout with the six-time All-Star.

The New York Knicks have already been mentioned as one possible interested team in Lowry on the buyout market. 

Rozier adds the scoring punch that the Heat have been looking for, and is averaging a career-high 23.2 points and 6.6 assists in 30 games. 

For Rozier, it's a dream scenario, as he has wanted to join the Heat for some time. Along with other connections, the combo guard trains in Miami and has spent plenty of offseason time in South Florida.
