The Philadelphia 76ers, Miami Heat and Los Angeles Clippers have interest in trading Kyle Lowry, sources tell Keith Pompey of the Philadelphia Inquirer.

A source says Lowry's preference is to play for the 76ers and that they might be able to get a deal done with the Toronto Raptors.

Lowry is on an expiring contract after nine seasons with the Raptors.

According to a source, the Raptors would like to reward Lowry for his years of service with the team by giving him an opportunity to compete for another title.

Lowry is a native of Philadelphia and would give the 76ers a perimeter playmaker.

The Clippers, meanwhile, would allow Lowry to reunite with Kawhi Leonard and Serge Ibaka. Lowry is also close friends with Ty Lue and Chauncey Billups.

In free agency, Lowry will seek a contract of $60 million over two years.

Paul George was held out of the final 2:50 of a close game against the Brooklyn Nets on Sunday due to a minutes restriction. The Nets won the game over the Los Angeles Clippers by a final score of 112-108.

George had 34 points, seven assists and six rebounds in 32 minutes in his second game since returning from a seven-game absence. 

"Man, I think you know the answer to that," George said when asked how tough it was to sit out the end.

George said his toe, which was diagnosed as having a bone edema, is not at risk of becoming inflamed by playing again.

"I'm clear, I'm good to go, as of now," George said. "It's an afterthought. I'm healthy, and I feel good."

Kawhi Leonard, Paul George, and Patrick Beverley are set to miss Monday night's game against the Miami Heat.

Leonard is out with a leg contusion, with Ty Lue not sure of when he'll return. 

George will miss the game with a swollen right toe. 

Beverley is out due to rest. 

Kawhi Leonard will miss the Los Angeles Clippers' game on Sunday night due to a leg contusion.

Leonard suffered the injury at some point during the Clippers most recent road trip. 

Ty Lue said he didn't know when Leonard would return.

"I'm not quite sure when it happened. Or when he is going to be back," said Lue.

Paul George is set to miss at least two more games due to a swollen right toe.

George has missed the last two games with the injury, and will not join the team for their upcoming road trip.

George could be re-evaluated as early as Saturday. 

The Detroit Pistons received trade interest in Derrick Rose from a number of teams before agreeing to a deal with the New York Knicks.

The Miami Heat, Los Angeles Clippers, Milwaukee Bucks and Brooklyn Nets were also interested in Rose.

Rose is averaging 14.2 points, 1.9 rebounds and 4.2 assists this season with the Pistons. 

Paul George sat out the Los Angeles Clippers' game on Friday night against the Boston Celtics due to swelling in his right toe.

Ty Lue said he didn't know how George suffered the injury, or how long he would be out.

"Wish him a speedy recovery as we try to figure out [more about the injury]. ... I'm not really sure when he started feeling it. I'm just hoping we get him back soon," said Lue. 

Kawhi Leonard and Paul George have been cleared from the NBA's health and safety protocols and will return on Friday when the Los Angeles Clippers play the Orlando Magic.

Leonard and George missed the first two games of the Clippers' six-game road trip.

Leonard is averaging 25.9 points, 5.4 rebounds, 5.7 assists and 2.0 steals this season. George is enjoying a bounce-back season, averaging 23.9 points, 6.2 rebounds, 5.4 assists and 1.2 steals.

Tyronn Lue said that Kawhi Leonard and Paul George are "feeling well," but did not know when they would rejoin the Los Angeles Clippers.

Leonard and George did not travel with the Clippers to start their six-game road trip due to health and safety protocols.

"Those guys are feeling well and they can get better and hopefully join the team soon," said Lue.

The two players could join the team during this current road trip depending on the extent of the protocols.

Patrick Beverley also did not travel with the team due to right knee soreness. 

The New York Knicks and Los Angeles Clippers have interest in trading for Derrick Rose. Tom Thibodaeu coached Rose with the Chicago Bulls and Minnesota Timberwolves, while Ty Lue had a brief stint coaching him with the Cleveland Cavaliers.

Rose was linked with a trade to the Los Angeles Lakers and Philadelphia 76ers last season.

Rose is on an expiring contract with the Detroit Pistons.
