Sixers' Kyle Lowry Joins Amazon Prime NBA Coverage As Active Player Analyst

Kyle Lowry, a six-time NBA All-Star and current Philadelphia 76ers guard, has signed a multiyear deal to become an analyst for Amazon Prime Video's NBA coverage, marking a unique transition as he will appear on air while still an active player. Despite being under contract and preparing for his 20th NBA season, Lowry's playing time and production have declined due to injuries and age, signaling a possible winding down of his playing career. Amazon Prime Sports highlighted Lowry's authentic personality and deep understanding of the game, expecting his role to grow in future seasons beyond select appearances this season. Lowry expressed excitement about sharing his basketball insights and contributing to a fresh viewing experience for fans worldwide. This move aligns with Lowry's previously stated goal of playing 20 seasons, with many seeing this as a step toward his eventual retirement and a post-playing career in media. The decision comes amid a tumultuous offseason for the 76ers, adding to speculation about Lowry's future with the team.
