Lowry averaged a career-high 14.3 points, 4.6 rebounds and 1.6 steals per game last season for the Rockets. He also dished out 6.6 assists per contest.
He was placed on the trading block with fellow Rockets guards Luis Scola and Kevin Martin last week. The Rockets have reportedly extended Knicks guard Jeremy Lin an offer sheet of $30 million.
Lowry confirmed via Twitter that he would no longer be a Rocket shortly after the story broke.
I just want to thank the city of Houston and the fans for showing me love like I was one of y'all own, and I'll always keep that in my heart
