Dowtin agreed to a two-way contract with the 76ers on Sunday, Shams Charania of The Athletic reports.

EDGE Analysis

Dowtin spent the 2023-24 campaign with Philadelphia, but the 76ers declined his $2.2 million team option for the 2024-25 season in late June. He remained with the team for Summer League play and averaged 17.1 points and 5.7 assists, and he'll compete for a role with the organization during camp this fall.

The 76ers converted Dowtin's two-way contract to a standard deal Thursday.

EDGE Analysis

Dowtin has been playing for the G League's Delaware Blue Coats this year and signed a two-way deal with the team in early March. He impressed for the G League club and will be rewarded with a standard contract late in the regular season.

Dowtin amassed 10 points (4-7 FG, 2-4 3Pt), six assists, three rebounds, three steals and one block over 24 minutes off the bench during Wednesday's 115-109 loss to the Grizzlies.

EDGE Analysis

Playing his second NBA game of the season, Dowtin was pushed into a much larger role than expected with Tyrese Maxey (concussion), Kyle Lowry (rest) and De'Anthony Melton (back) all missing from the Sixers' backcourt. The 26-year-old journeyman responded by leading the team in assists and tying for the team lead in steals while chipping in a little offense of his own. Lowry could be back in the lineup as soon as Friday against the Pelicans, but Dowtin's performance might have been good enough for him to hang onto a spot in the regular rotation in the short term.

Dowtin is signing a two-way deal with the 76ers on Saturday, Shams Charania of The Athletic reports.

EDGE Analysis

Dowtin has been playing for the G League's Delaware Blue Coats this season, averaging 21.4 points and 7.0 assists over his last 12 games. He previously played under Nick Nurse in Toronto, so Dowtin has some familiarity with his new coach. With the 76ers shorthanded, Dowtin has a path to playing time, but he's not guaranteed an NBA role right away.

Dowin was waived by the Raptors on Friday, Blake Murphy of Sportsnet reports.

EDGE Analysis

This isn't a big surprise, as Dowtin's non-guaranteed deal was due to be partially guaranteed on Saturday. The 76ers hold Dowtin's G League rights, so there's a good chance he ends up in Philadelphia.

Dowtin (ankle) is available for Friday's preseason finale against Washington, Josh Lewenberg of TSN.ca reports.

EDGE Analysis

Dowtin had been dealing with an ankle injury, but it appears he's moved past the issue. While he'll be available, there's no guarantee Dowtin will see any playing time, as Toronto has its entire roster available and will presumably use the final exhibition as a dress rehearsal for the regular season.

Dowtin (ankle) didn't play in Tuesday's 106-102 preseason win over the Bulls.

EDGE Analysis

It's unclear if Dowtin's absence is due to still recovery from ankle surgery or a removal from Toronto's rotation. Either way, his next chance to suit up is Friday's preseason matchup with Washington.

Dowtin didn't play in Sunday's 112-99 preseason win over the Kings.

EDGE Analysis

Dowtin missed Summer League play while recovering from ankle surgery that he underwent following the 2022-23 season. He's been participating in practices during training camp, so it's unclear whether his absence from Sunday's matchup was due to his offseason ankle issue. The 26-year-old is on a non-guaranteed deal ahead of the 2023-24 campaign and will have to compete for a roster spot over the next few weeks.

Dowtin (ankle) signed a training camp deal with the Raptors on Saturday, Shams Charania of The Athletic reports.

EDGE Analysis

Dowtin missed all of Summer League after undergoing an offseason surgery on his right ankle. Still, he will get a chance to earn a roster spot in training camp after spending the 2022-23 season as a two-way player for Toronto. As part of the deal, Dowtin would receive a significant salary guarantee if he ends up on the Raptors' opening night roster.

Dowtin (ankle) won't play in any of Toronto's Summer League contests, Vivek Jacob of the Raptors' official site reports.

EDGE Analysis

Dowtin operated under a two-way deal with the Raptors last year and made just 25 NBA appearances, averaging 2.4 points in 10.4 minutes per game. He underwent ankle surgery following the 2022-23 campaign and will remain sidelined throughout Summer League action, but there's been no indication the undrafted guard out of Rhode Island (2020) is in danger of missing the start of next season. With Fred VanVleet no longer in the mix, Dowtin could compete for a sizable role with the Raptors in 2023-24.
