Kyle Lowry - Unlikely to play pre-trade deadlineLowry (recently traded) is unlikely to suit up for the Hornets prior to the league's Feb. 8 trade deadline, Schuyler Callihan of SI.com reports.ImpactLowry is a candidate to be flipped in a separate transaction or bought out later in the season. Eventually suiting up for the Hornets isn't impossible, but given that the 37-year-old is on an expiring contract, Lowry joining a more competitive environment could be his preferred outcome. Hornets' general manager Mitch Kupchak noted that the franchise plans to see what options exist via trade, and that not playing Lowry is a decision "out of respect for him" during this time.
