PHILADELPHIA 76ERS NEWS

Kyle Lowry - Will miss final game of season Lowry (hip) is out for Sunday's game against the Bulls.

Impact Lowry will end the regular season on the sidelines, though that's not surprising, as the veteran floor general was limited to just 35 appearances and 12 starts in 2024-25 due to several injuries. In those games, Lowry averaged a mere 3.9 points, 2.7 assists and 1.9 rebounds per game while logging just 18.8 minutes per contest -- his lowest mark since his rookie year.

Quentin Grimes - Questionable for season finale Grimes (shoulder) is questionable for Sunday's game against the Bulls.

Impact Grimes missed Friday's game against the Hawks due to a right shoulder sprain, and that same injury has him as a potential game-time call for the regular-season finale. The 76ers don't have anything to play for Sunday, but Grimes will aim to end the season on a high note, as he's been Philadelphia's best player since the All-Star break. He enters the final day of the regular season with averages of 23.3 points, 4.9 rebounds and 4.7 assists per game across 23 appearances since the break.

Justin Edwards - Questionable to play Sunday Edwards (ribs) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Bulls.

Impact Edwards has missed the 76ers' last three games due to a rib contusion, but he has a chance to return for Sunday's regular-season finale. Lonnie Walker would be in line to start for a fourth straight contest if Edwards is ruled out.

Andre Drummond - Not playing Sunday Drummond (toe) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against Chicago.

Impact Drummond has not played since March 12 due to a left big toe sprain, and he'll end up missing the final 17 games of the regular season as a result. When healthy, the veteran center ended up seeing an increased role due to the prolonged absence of Joel Embiid (knee). Drummond will finish the 2024-25 regular season averaging 7.3 points, 7.8 rebounds, 0.9 assists and 1.0 steals in 18.8 minutes per game across 40 games (23 starts).
