Kyle Lowry has been the subject of trade rumors this season, and the veteran guard reportedly expects to be dealt.

Ryen Russillo said on “The Bill Simmons Podcast” that he’s heard Lowry has been telling everyone he is getting traded.

We saw a report last month saying that the Raptors were considering moving on from Lowry. Toronto is 17-19 and has lost most of its top players from its championship team. Now could very reasonably be the time to move on from Lowry, who turns 35 later this month. The trade deadline is on March 25.

Lowry is averaging 18.0 points and 7.0 assists per game while making 40.3 percent of his threes. If Lowry does get traded, he reportedly has one Eastern Conference team in mind.
