Kyle Lowry is expected to agree to a contract with the Heat at the start of free agency, according to Adrian Wojnarowski of ESPN.
Wojnarowski went as far as to say “everything is in place” for that to happen when he appeared on ESPN’s The Jump.
Assuming Lowry ends up in Miami, he’ll be heading there after a nine-year stay in Toronto, as he helped the Raptors win their first and only championship in franchise history.
