Lowry (rest) will play Friday against the Hornets, Josh Lewenberg of TSN reports. Lowry said all along that his plan was to sit out three games and return in Charlotte, and it appears that's what will happen after he went through a successful workout Thursday. Prior to the absence, Lowry struggled shooting the ball, but he's expected to return refreshed, and his numbers could see a mild boost. With Lowry back, Greivis Vasquez will shift back to a bench role.
