To be out for at least two weeks
Oubre (knee) will miss at least two weeks, Tony Jones of The Athletic reports.
ANALYSIS
Oubre has been diagnosed with an LCL sprain following a visit with a specialist, and he's facing an extended absence. The 76ers and fantasy managers should expect to be without the veteran swingman until some point in early December at the soonest. With Oubre sidelined for the next several weeks, more playing time will be available to Quentin Grimes and Trendon Watford.
Nov 18, 2025
Remaining out vs. Toronto
Oubre (knee) has been ruled out for Wednesday's game against the Raptors.
ANALYSIS
Oubre will miss his second consecutive contest due to an LCL sprain in his left knee he sustained during Friday's loss to Detroit. With the veteran forward and Paul George (knee) both sidelined, Justin Edwards and Jabari Walker are candidates for increased minutes. Oubre's next opportunity to play will come Thursday against the Bucks.
Nov 16, 2025
Out at least one game
Oubre (knee) will miss at least one game and will be re-evaluated over the weekend, Keith Pompey of The Philadelphia Inquirer reports.
ANALYSIS
Oubre has an LCL injury and underwent some imaging. He's scheduled to meet with a specialist, at which point a timetable is likely to be established. He'll miss Monday's game against the Clippers and can be considered highly questionable for Wednesday against the Raptors.
Nov 14, 2025
Won't return Friday
Oubre will not return to Friday's game versus the Pistons due to a left knee hyperextension, Keith Pompey of The Philadelphia Inquirer reports.
ANALYSIS
Oubre will end his evening with three points (1-5 FG, 0-2 3Pt, 1-2 FT), one rebound, one assist, two steals and one turnover in 15 minutes. Quentin Grimes started the second half of Friday's game with Oubre back in the locker room, so he'll benefit if Oubre needs to miss additional time.
Nov 10, 2025
Drops 13 in loss
Oubre produced 13 points (5-13 FG, 1-6 3Pt, 2-2 FT), five rebounds, three assists and one block in 36 minutes during Sunday's 111-108 loss to the Pistons.
ANALYSIS
Oubre has been steady in his role among Philadelphia's starters, averaging 18.6 points, 5.3 rebounds, 1.5 assists, 1.1 steals, 1.0 blocks and 2.3 threes over 37.3 minutes. He has made a three in all 10 games so far, and will look to continue his offensive momentum Tuesday against the Celtics.
Nov 3, 2025
Not listed on injury report
Oubre is not listed on the injury report ahead of Tuesday's game in Chicago.
ANALYSIS
Oubre tweaked his ankle Sunday, but that won't keep him on the sidelines Tuesday, despite that game being the first of a back-to-back set. Oubre has been playing some of the best ball of his career in Philly this season, so make sure you've got him active for this four-game week.
Nov 2, 2025
Doesn't return Sunday
Oubre didn't return to Sunday's 129-105 win over the Nets after sustaining an apparent right ankle injury in the third quarter. He finished with 29 points (12-21 FG, 3-9 3Pt, 2-2 FT), three rebounds, one steal and one block across 33 minutes.
ANALYSIS
Oubre exited to the locker room after the third quarter and returned to the bench shortly thereafter, though he never checked back in. He finished with a team- and season-high 29 points. The Sixers are expected to provide an update on Oubre's status for Tuesday's game against the Bulls by Monday night.
Nov 2, 2025
Exits to locker room vs. Brooklyn
Oubre exited to the locker room after sustaining an apparent right ankle injury in the third quarter of Sunday's game against the Nets, Brian Lewis of the New York Post reports.
ANALYSIS
Oubre grabbed at his right ankle and limped to the locker room after the third quarter. If the 29-year-old swingman is unable to return, Quentin Grimes and Justin Edwards are candidates for a bump in minutes the rest of the way.
Nov 1, 2025
Nears double-double in defeat
Oubre provided 17 points (6-12 FG, 3-7 3Pt, 2-6 FT), nine rebounds and two steals in 41 minutes during Friday's 109-108 loss to the Celtics.
ANALYSIS
Oubre delivered another productive performance and has scored at least 17 points in four consecutive games. The 29-year-old was one of five Philadelphia players to score in double figures. He also grabbed a game-high nine rebounds and nearly secured his third straight double-double. Through five regular-season games, Oubre is averaging 17.6 points, 7.0 rebounds, 1.4 assists and 1.2 steals in 39.2 minutes per contest.
Oct 27, 2025
Double-doubles in 40 minutes
Oubre notched 25 points (9-16 FG, 2-6 3Pt, 5-5 FT), 10 rebounds, four assists, one steal and two blocks over 40 minutes during Monday's 136-124 win over the Magic.
ANALYSIS
Oubre had the hot hand early for Philly, and with Joel Embiid (rest) watching from the sidelines, he saw some more shots falling his way. 76ers' head coach, Nick Nurse, raved about Oubre's performance after the game, saying it was one of his best outings in a Philly uniform with how he impacted both ends of the floor. Through the first three games of the season, Oubre has quietly been providing solid statistics with 18.0 points, 5.0 rebounds, 2.7 assists, 2.3 steals and 1.7 swats per contest.
Oct 26, 2025
Scores 19 points in 125-121 victory
Oubre ended Saturday's 125-121 win over the Hornets with 19 points (7-10 FG, 2-3 3Pt, 3-3 FT), one rebound, one assist and two steals over 37 minutes.
ANALYSIS
Kelly Oubre, Jr. was one of five Sixers to score at least 15 points in their win against Charlotte on Saturday, and he led all players with a +18 plus-minus rating. The 29-year-old should continue earning increased playing time in the absence of Paul George (knee), as he finished third on the team behind Tyrese Maxey (42) and VJ Edgecombe (40) in minutes. Philadelphia hosts the Orlando Magic on Monday night.
Oct 23, 2025
Scores double digits in win
Oubre put up 10 points (2-6 FG, 2-6 3Pt, 4-4 FT), four rebounds, an assist and a block across 34 minutes in Wednesday's 117-116 win over Boston.
ANALYSIS
Oubre was one of five 76ers to score double digits. While the spotlight will shine on Tyrese Maxey and rookie VJ Edgecombe, it is worth noting that Oubre was third in minutes only behind these two, so expect him to continue taking advantage of this expanded role while Paul George (knee) remains out for the forseeable future.
Oct 4, 2025
Fills up stat sheet in loss
Oubre tallied 13 points (5-12 FG, 2-5 3Pt, 1-4 FT), four rebounds, three assists, two steals and one block across 29 minutes during Saturday's 113-104 loss to the Knicks.
ANALYSIS
Oubre was all over the floor during the team's second preseason game in Abu Dhabi. He led his squad in the steals category while shooting 41.7 percent from the field and 40 percent from deep.
Oct 2, 2025
Full stat line in start
Oubre posted eight points (2-8 FG, 1-4 3Pt, 3-4 FT), four rebounds, three assists, one steal and two blocks in 22 minutes during Thursday's 99-84 preseason loss to the Knicks.
ANALYSIS
The veteran swingman is competing with several players for a starting job this preseason, including rookie VJ Edgecombe and Quentin Grimes (personal). Philadelphia's rotation also remains unsettled due to the absence of Jared McCain (thumb), and it remains to be seen how head coach Nick Nurse will handle his first unit once he and Grimes are available. For the time being, Oubre has a case as a late-round flier in deeper fantasy leagues until the team is healthy.
Oct 2, 2025
Starting preseason opener
Oubre (knee) will start Thursday's preseason opener against the Knicks.
ANALYSIS
Oubre picked up his player option this offseason, but his status with the 76ers remains in question after drafting VJ Edgecombe this offseason. However, it's unclear when Paul George (knee) or Joel Embiid (knee) will suit up, so Oubre remains a valuable depth option on the wings.
Jun 29, 2025
Exercises player option Sunday
Oubre (knee) exercised his $8.38 million player option with the 76ers on Sunday, Shams Charania of ESPN reports.
ANALYSIS
Oubre is set to return to Philadelphia for a third season after picking up his player option. The 29-year-old swingman has started the majority of his games with the 76ers over the past two seasons, averaging 15.3 points, 5.5 rebounds, 1.6 assists and 1.3 steals across 32.4 minutes per game during that span. He missed the club's final 17 regular-season outings in 2024-25 due to a sprained right knee, though the injury is unlikely to impact his availability for next season.
Apr 10, 2025
Remains out for Friday

Apr 8, 2025

Apr 4, 2025

Oubre (knee) has been ruled out for Saturday's game against the Timberwolves.
ANALYSIS
Oubre will miss his 13th consecutive contest due to a sprained right knee. While there's no clear timetable for the 29-year-old forward's return, he was reportedly a partial participant during last Friday's practice, and his next chance to play will come Monday against Miami.
Apr 2, 2025
Not playing Thursday
Oubre (knee) is out for Thursday's game against the Bucks, Adam Aaronson of PhillyVoice.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Oubre has been out of the 76ers' lineup since March 14 due to a right knee sprain, and there's no timetable as to when he might be able to return, although he's been ramping up in practice in recent days. His next chance to play will come against the Timberwolves on Saturday.
Mar 31, 2025
Out again Tuesday
Oubre (knee) will not play Tuesday against the Knicks.
ANALYSIS
Oubre has been out of the 76ers' lineup since March 14 due to a right knee sprain, though he has been able to get some limited work in during recent practices. Oubre's next chance to play comes Thursday against the Bucks.
Mar 28, 2025
Remains without timetable
Oubre (knee) was a partial participant at Friday's practice, Ky Carlin of USA Today reports.
ANALYSIS
Oubre has been out of the 76ers' lineup since March 14 due to a right knee sprain, and a return date has yet to be established. Therefore, it's highly unlikely that he suits up in the upcoming back-to-back set that begins March 29, as the 76ers have no reason to rush him back at less than 100 percent.
Mar 26, 2025
Making progress through injury
Head coach Nick Nurse told reporters Wednesday that Oubre (knee) has been working out and could be back soon, Adam Aaronson of PhillyVoice.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Oubre has been out of the 76ers' lineup since March 14 due to a right knee sprain, but Nurse's comments indicate that the 2015 first-round pick is inching closer to a return. Oubre had averaged 17.1 points, 5.9 rebounds, 1.6 assists and 1.6 steals over 36.6 minutes per game since the beginning of February and before his injury. His return would lead to less playing time for Justin Edwards and Ricky Council, though Oubre would likely operate on a minutes restriction in his first few games back. Oubre has already been ruled out for Wednesday's game against the Wizards, so his next opportunity to take to the floor is Saturday against the Heat.
Mar 25, 2025
Another absence coming
Oubre is out for Wednesday's game against the Wizards with a right knee sprain.
ANALYSIS
Wednesday will mark an eighth straight absence for Oubre, who holds no timetable for a return ahead of Saturday's tilt against the Heat. With the veteran swingman sidelined against Washington, the 76ers will continue to ask for more playing time out of the likes of Justin Edwards, Ricky Council and Jared Butler.
Mar 24, 2025
Still out Monday
Oubre (knee) has been ruled out for Monday's game against the Pelicans.
ANALYSIS
Oubre hasn't played since March 12 and doesn't have a return timetable. His next chance to suit up will come Wednesday against Washington, but barring a return to practice soon, Oubre can be considered doubtful for that contest.
Mar 22, 2025
Ruled out for Sunday
Oubre (knee) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Hawks.
ANALYSIS
Oubre will miss a sixth consecutive game for the 76ers as he deals with a sprained right knee. Philadelphia will likely turn to Jared Butler to help shoulder the load in Atlanta.
Mar 20, 2025
Remains out for Friday
Oubre (knee) has been ruled out for Friday's game against the Spurs.
ANALYSIS
Oubre will miss a fifth straight game for the 76ers while he continues to nurse a sprained right ankle. Jared Butler, Ricky Council and Chuma Okeke will likely see more time on the floor Friday in San Antonio.
Mar 19, 2025
Out Wednesday
Oubre (knee) is out for Wednesday's game against the Thunder.
ANALYSIS
Oubre will miss a fourth consecutive contest Wednesday due to a right knee sprain, and the 29-year-old swingman doesn't have a clear timetable for his return to the hardwood. Ricky Council, Jared Butler and Chuma Okeke are all candidates for an uptick in playing time with Oubre out.
Mar 18, 2025
Doubtful for Wednesday
Oubre (knee) is listed as doubtful for Wednesday's game against the Thunder.
ANALYSIS
Oubre is expected to miss his fourth consecutive contest Wednesday due to a right knee sprain. If the 29-year-old swingman remains on the shelf, RIcky Council, Jared Butler and Chuma Okeke are all candidates for an uptick in playing time.
Mar 17, 2025
Out again Monday
Oubre (groin) has been ruled out for Monday's game against the Rockets.
ANALYSIS
Oubre is slated to miss a third straight game due to a right knee sprain. His next chance to suit up will come Wednesday in Oklahoma City. With Paul George (groin/knee) also sidelined, Ricky Council, Oshae Brissett and Justin Edwards are all candidates for increased roles.
Mar 15, 2025
Still out Sunday
Oubre (knee) won't play in Sunday's game versus the Mavericks.
ANALYSIS
Oubre will miss his second straight contest Sunday due to a right knee sprain. The 29-year-old forward's next chance to suit up is Monday's matchup with Houston.
Mar 14, 2025
Won't play against Indiana
Oubre (knee) is out for Friday's game versus the Pacers, Ky Carlin of USA Today reports.
ANALYSIS
Oubre has been downgraded from questionable to out Friday due to a right knee injury. Ricky Council and Oshae Brissett are candidates to receive increased playing time in his absence. Oubre's next chance to suit up is Sunday's matchup with Dallas.
Mar 14, 2025
Questionable for Friday
Oubre is Adam Aaronson of PhillyVoice.com for Friday's game against the Pacers with a right knee sprain.
ANALYSIS
Oubre joins a growing injury report in Philadelphia, as Quentin Grimes (illness) is now questionable as well. If Oubre and/or Grimes are unable to give it a go Friday, guys like Jared Butler, Jeff Dowtin and Justin Edwards could be asked to step into larger roles.
Mar 12, 2025
Good to go Wednesday
Oubre (ankle) is available for Wednesday's game against the Raptors, Blake Murphy of Sportsnet.ca reports.
ANALYSIS
Oubre will return from a one-game absence due to a right ankle sprain. He's averaged 19.1 points on 50.0 percent shooting since the All-Star break, and he'll continue to see an increased role in the 76ers' offense due to injuries to Tyrese Maxey (finger/back), Joel Embiid (knee) and Paul George (knee).
Mar 11, 2025
Questionable to play Wednesday
Oubre (ankle) is listed as questionable for Wednesday's game against the Raptors.
ANALYSIS
Oubre was sidelined for Monday's loss to the Hawks due to a right ankle sprain, but he has an opportunity to return to action Wednesday. He has recently taken on a larger offensive role due to the absences of Tyrese Maxey (finger/back), Paul George (groin) and Joel Embiid (knee), and Oubre has averaged 19.1 points on 50.0 percent shooting, 4.3 rebounds, 1.8 assists and 1.3 steals over 35.5 minutes per game since the All-Star break. Lonnie Walker would be in line to start in a second straight game if Oubre is unable to play Wednesday.
Mar 10, 2025
Out against Atlanta
Oubre (ankle) will not play Monday against the Hawks.
ANALYSIS
Philadelphia's season is slipping away due to injuries and the losses are piling up, so the franchise may be cautious going forward when players are not 100 percent. With Oubre sidelined, guys like Justin Edwards, Jared Butler and Alex Reese could step into increased roles.
Mar 7, 2025
Scores 27 in blowout loss
Oubre closed Thursday's 123-105 loss to the Celtics with 27 points (9-20 FG, 3-5 3Pt, 6-7 FT), five rebounds, six assists and three steals across 34 minutes.
ANALYSIS
Oubre reached the 20-point mark for the fourth straight contest, and the veteran forward is expected to remain one of the most reliable scoring weapons for the 76ers in the final weeks of the regular season. Expect Oubre to experience an uptick in his workload and usage rate as long as Tyrese Maxey (back) and Paul George (groin) remain sidelined. Oubre is averaging 21.0 points per game since the All-Star break.
Mar 5, 2025
Drops 24 points in return
Oubre had 24 points (11-19 FG, 1-4 3Pt, 1-3 FT), three rebounds, two assists, one block and one steal in 40 minutes during Tuesday's 126-112 loss to the Timberwolves.
ANALYSIS
After sitting out Monday's game against the Trail Blazers due to an illness, Oubre returned to the lineup Tuesday and didn't miss a beat. The 29-year-old forward has produced 20-plus points in three straight appearances and scored in double digits in 11 straight, averaging 18.3 points, 5.8 boards, 1.5 steals, 1.1 assists and 1.1 threes over the latter stretch while shooting 51.6 percent from the floor. With Joel Embiid (knee) done for the year and the Sixers dealing with some other key injuries, Oubre's usage figures to remain elevated.
Mar 4, 2025
Green light to play Tuesday
Oubre (illness) is available for Tuesday's game against the Timberwolves, Adam Aaronson of PhillyVoice.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Oubre wasn't able to play in Monday's 119-102 loss to the Trail Blazers due to an illness, but he has recovered enough to be cleared to play in Tuesday's contest. Oubre has averaged 17.0 points on 48.8 percent shooting, 6.7 rebounds, 1.3 assists and 1.5 steals over 38.8 minutes per game since the beginning of February.
Mar 4, 2025
Expected to play
Oubre (illness) is probable for Tuesday's game against Minnesota, Alan Horton of the Timberwolves Radio Network reports.
ANALYSIS

Mar 3, 2025
Won't go Monday

The 29-year-old swingman's next chance to suit up will come in the second half of the club's back-to-back set against the Timberwolves on Tuesday. Justin Edwards, Ricky Council and Lonnie Walker are candidates for an uptick in playing time due to Oubre being sidelined
Mar 3, 2025
Iffy for Monday
Oubre is questionable for Monday's game against Portland due to an illness.
ANALYSIS
Oubre was a late addition to the injury report after presumably waking up under the weather. Monday's game is the front end of a back-to-back set, so the 76ers could exercise caution here. If he's unable to play, guys like Justin Edwards, Lonnie Walker and Jared Butler could step into larger roles for the 76ers.
Mar 2, 2025
Hits for 20 against Golden State
Oubre recorded 20 points (6-13 FG, 3-6 3Pt, 5-7 FT), two rebounds, one assist, one block and one steal across 42 minutes during Saturday's 126-119 win over the Warriors.
ANALYSIS
Playing against one of his many former clubs, Oubre put together a revenge game of sorts as he delivered at least 20 points for the second straight contest. The 29-year-old forward has scored in double digits in 10 straight appearances, averaging 17.7 points, 6.1 boards, 1.6 steals, 1.1 threes and 1.0 assists over that stretch while shooting 50.7 percent from the floor. With Joel Embiid (knee) done for the season, Oubre's usage could tick upward.
Feb 26, 2025
Strong first quarter Wednesday
Oubre registered 27 points (9-14 FG, 4-6 3Pt, 5-6 FT), five rebounds, one assist, two steals and one block over 42 minutes during Wednesday's 110-105 loss to the Knicks.
ANALYSIS
Oubre helped the Sixers stay afloat in the first quarter with 19 points to match Mikal Bridges, and the former finished as Philadelphia's second-leading scorer behind Tyrese Maxey (30). Oubre's four three-pointers matched a season high, and his 27 points were his third most of the season. He has averaged 21.2 points on 53.4 percent shooting, 5.0 rebounds and 1.4 steals over 37.4 minutes per game over his last five outings.
Feb 20, 2025
Game-high three steals Thursday
Oubre produced 16 points (6-14 FG, 1-6 3Pt, 3-3 FT), four rebounds and three steals over 35 minutes during Thursday's 124-104 loss to the Celtics.
ANALYSIS
Oubre continues to pile up on steals, having now registered at least two swipes in four consecutive games. The veteran swingman continues to handle plenty of minutes in head coach Nick Nurse's tight rotation as well. Across his last 13 appearances, Oubre has played 38.7 minutes per game while averaging 17.7 points, 8.2 rebounds, 2.3 assists, 1.8 steals and 1.0 three-pointers.
Feb 13, 2025
Sets new season-high scoring mark
Oubre logged 30 points (10-16 FG, 2-3 3Pt, 8-8 FT), three rebounds and two steals across 39 minutes during Wednesday's 100-96 loss to the Nets.
ANALYSIS
Oubre established a new season-high scoring mark and continues to play at a high level, as he's been routinely stepping up for the Sixers whenever any of the team's star players hasn't been available. Oubre has scored in double digits in all but one of his seven contests this month, averaging 15.4 points, 8.0 rebounds, 1.6 assists and 1.7 steals per game since the beginning of February.
Feb 6, 2025
Records double-double
Oubre amassed 15 points (6-16 FG, 1-5 3Pt, 2-4 FT), 11 rebounds, one block and two steals across 40 minutes during Wednesday's 108-101 loss to Miami.
ANALYSIS
Oubre recorded a double-double for the second time over his last three outings, and the fourth time over his last eight contests, so his two-way ability has provided a huge boost for a depleted 76ers team that has dealt with tons of injuries all season long. A productive veteran who can be reliable if given enough minutes, he's averaging a solid line of 18.5 points, 9.5 rebounds, 3.0 assists and 1.6 steals per game in that eight-game stretch.
Feb 1, 2025
Tops 20 points again Friday
Oubre closed Friday's 137-134 loss to the Nuggets with 27 points (9-16 FG, 2-4 3Pt, 7-7 FT), seven rebounds, five assists, one block and one steal in 41 minutes.
ANALYSIS
For the fourth time in the last five games, Oubre dropped at least 20 points as he takes advantage of the absences of Joel Embiid (knee) and Paul George (finger). During that stretch, Oubre is averaging 21.2 points, 9.2 boards, 3.8 assists, 1.8 steals and 1.2 threes while shooting 50.0 percent from the floor, but his usage will likely shrink significantly once both superstars have rejoined the lineup.
Jan 29, 2025
Continues to pile up steals
Oubre contributed 15 points (6-12 FG, 1-2 3Pt, 2-3 FT), six rebounds, three assists and four steals over 37 minutes during Wednesday's 117-104 win over Sacramento.
ANALYSIS
Oubre paced the 76ers with four steals Wednesday, putting together his fifth game of the season with at least three swipes. Through his last eight contests, the veteran swingman has averaged 17.5 points, 8.3 rebounds, 2.9 assists, 1.6 steals and 1.3 three-pointers. Oubre should keep handling a more pronounced role in Philadelphia's lineup for however long Joel Embiid (knee) and Paul George (finger) remain on the shelf.
Jan 29, 2025
Pops for 20 in Tuesday's win
Oubre racked up 20 points (8-18 FG, 0-5 3Pt, 4-4 FT), eight rebounds and five assists in 39 minutes during Tuesday's 118-104 victory over the Lakers.
ANALYSIS
The veteran wing has scored at least 20 points in three straight games, continuing a strong January that has seen Oubre average 17.3 points, 7.5 boards, 2.4 assists, 1.6 steals and 1.1 threes over 12 appearances. With Paul George (finger) now joining the lengthy list of sidelined Sixers that starts with Joel Embiid (knee), Oubre should continue seeing elevated usage in the short term.
Jan 26, 2025
Solid double-double
Oubre amassed 22 points (9-18 FG, 2-5 3Pt, 2-5 FT), 12 rebounds, three assists and one steal over 37 minutes during Saturday's 109-97 victory over the Bulls.
ANALYSIS
Even though Tyrese Maxey stole most of the headlines after another impressive display, Oubre deserves some credit as well and notched an impressive outing on both ends of the court. This was Oubre's second straight double-double, and while he's reached that mark seven times in 2024-25, four of those have come since the beginning of January. Oubre is settling well as a reliable scoring weapon in a roster that has been decimated by injuries to two of their star players, Joel Embiid (knee) and Paul George (finger). He's averaging 17.5 points, 8.7 rebounds, 2.5 assists and 1.5 steals per game over his last six appearances.
Jan 24, 2025
Logs sixth double-double of season
Oubre ended with 22 points (8-16 FG, 1-3 3Pt, 5-5 FT), 13 rebounds, three assists and three steals over 39 minutes before fouling out of Friday's 132-129 win over the Cavaliers.
ANALYSIS
Oubre contributed to Friday's shootout with his seventh 20-point game and sixth double-double of the season, also matching Guerschon Yabusele for the team lead with 13 rebounds before fouling out. Across his last 10 games, Oubre has averaged 16.5 points, 7.0 rebounds, 2.1 assists, 1.8 steals and 1.1 threes as he continues to handle a more pronounced role in Philadelphia's starting lineup amid Joel Embiid's (foot) ongoing absence.
Jan 19, 2025
Nears 20 points in defeat
Oubre logged 19 points (7-14 FG, 2-5 3Pt, 3-3 FT), six rebounds and three assists in 39 minutes during Sunday's 123-109 loss to Milwaukee.
ANALYSIS
Oubre provided a spark offensively and the boards in Sunday's contest, ending one point shy of the 20-point mark to go along with a team-high-tying rebound total in a balanced performance. Oubre posted at least 19 points in eight contest this season, adding six or more rebounds in five of those outings.
Jan 16, 2025
Fifth double-double of season
Oubre posted 16 points (7-11 FG, 1-3 3Pt, 1-1 FT), 10 rebounds, one assist, one block and two steals in 45 minutes during Wednesday's 125-119 overtime loss to the Knicks.
ANALYSIS
Oubre registered his fifth double-double of the campaign Wednesday, providing a full stat line for the 76ers as well. The 29-year-old swingman has hit double-digit points and recorded multiple steals in six of his last seven outings, a stretch where he's averaging 16.1 points, 6.4 rebounds, 2.9 steals, 1.7 assists and 0.7 threes in 37.4 minutes. Oubre should continue taking on an augmented role for however long the absence of superstar big man Joel Embiid (foot) lasts.

Shooting woes in defeat
Oubre provided eight points (2-10 FG, 0-4 3Pt, 4-5 FT), four rebounds, four steals and two assists over 30 minutes during Tuesday's 118-102 loss to the Thunder.
ANALYSIS
Oubre was one of the only regular members of Philadelphia's starting five to play in the first leg of the club's back-to-back set, though he struggled from the field with half of his points coming from the charity stripe. However, the 29-year-old did record a game-high mark in steals, and he has logged multiple steals in 17 of his 35 regular-season appearances. Oubre has reached double figures in four of his last five outings and will look to bounce back against the Knicks on Wednesday.
Jan 10, 2025
Solid showing Friday
Oubre racked up 21 points (7-18 FG, 2-5 3Pt, 5-7 FT), seven rebounds, one assist and two steals over 39 minutes during Friday's 123-115 loss to the Pelicans.
ANALYSIS
Oubre stepped up as Philadelphia's third scoring option in the absence of Joel Embiid (foot) on Friday, reaching the 20-point threshold for just the third time in his last 22 appearances. Across his last 10 contests, the veteran forward is averaging 15.0 points, 6.2 rebounds,1.9 assists, 1.8 steals and 1.0 threes in 36.3 minutes. With rookie first-rounder Jared McCain (knee) slated to miss the rest of the campaign, Oubre appears to be locked into the starting gig at shooting guard for the 76ers going forward, bolstering his rest-of-season fantasy outlook.
Jan 7, 2025
Produces well in return
Oubre (hand) tallied 26 points (9-18 FG, 1-4 3Pt, 7-9 FT), 11 rebounds and one assist across 38 minutes in Monday's 109-99 loss to the Suns.
ANALYSIS
Oubre was back in action after missing the 76ers' previous three games with a left hand sprain, and he delivered a fine performance in support of backcourt mate Tyrese Maxey (31 points, 10 assists in 44 minutes). Prior to missing time, Oubre had averaged 9.4 points in 33.8 minutes on 39.1 percent shooting from the field over his most recent five games. While Monday's outing was a step in the right direction, Oubre can't be counted on to hit half of his field-goal attempts most games, nor should he be expected to maintain the 26.5 percent usage rate he took on when Joel Embiid (foot) is back in action, perhaps as soon as Wednesday versus the Wizards.
Jan 6, 2025
Cleared to play Monday
Oubre (hand) is available for Monday's game against the Suns, Keith Pompey of The Philadelphia Inquirer reports.
ANALYSIS
Oubre will return to action following a three-game absence due to a sprained left hand. Over his last five outings, the 29-year-old has averaged 9.4 points, 5.2 rebounds and 2.2 steals across 33.8 minutes per contest.
Jan 5, 2025
Iffy for Monday vs. Suns
Oubre (hand) is listed as questionable for Monday's game against the Suns.
ANALYSIS
Oubre is in jeopardy of missing his fourth consecutive outing due to a sprained left hand. If the 29-year-old remains sidelined, Ricky Council and Reggie Jackson are candidates for an uptick in playing time, especially if Kyle Lowry (hip) is ruled out.
Jan 4, 2025
Officially ruled out
Oubre (hand) won't play in Saturday's game versus the Nets, Adam Aaronson of PhillyVoice.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Oubre's absence streak will extend to three games Saturday due to a sprained left hand. His next chance to suit up is Monday's matchup with Phoenix.
Jan 3, 2025
Unlikely to play Saturday
Oubre (hand) is listed as doubtful for Saturday's game versus the Nets.
ANALYSIS
Oubre is expected to miss his third straight contest Saturday due to a sprained left hand. If Oubre is downgraded to out yet again, Kyle Lowry should draw another start.
Jan 2, 2025
Won't play against Golden State
Oubre (hand) is out for Thursday's game versus the Warriors.
ANALYSIS
Oubre will miss his second straight contest Thursday due to a sprained left hand. Kyle Lowry and Eric Gordon should continue to receive increased playing time in his absence. Oubre's next chance to suit up is Saturday's matchup with Brooklyn.
Jan 1, 2025
Sitting out Wednesday
Oubre (hand) is out for Wednesday's game against the Kings, Adam Aaronson of PhillyVoice.com reports.
ANALYSIS
After swiping a whopping eight steals in Monday's win over Portland, Oubre will sit out Wednesday due to a sprained left hand, and he'll have a short turnaround to recover ahead of Thursday's matchup against the Warriors on the second night of a back-to-back. Eric Gordon (mouth) and Kyle Lowry (hip), the latter of whom is starting Wednesday, both appear to be in line for additional playing time in their returns for the shorthanded 76ers against Sacramento, and there should be some extra shots available for Tyrese Maxey and Paul George.
Jan 1, 2025
Questionable for Wednesday
Oubre is questionable for Wednesday's game against the Kings due to a left hand sprain.
ANALYSIS
This is a new injury for Oubre, and it's not a good sign with how late he's being added to the injury report. The timing is rough for the 76ers as well, as Tuesday's game is the front end of a back-to-back set. If Oubre is unable to play, the 76ers will need to use a committee approach to soak up his minutes with so many injuries on the roster.
Dec 31, 2024
Sniffs impressive double-double
Oubre registered 15 points (6-10 FG, 0-3 3Pt, 3-3 FT), five rebounds, two assists, one block and eight steals across 37 minutes during Monday's 125-103 victory over the Trail Blazers.
ANALYSIS
While it wouldn't have been overly shocking to see Oubre record a double-double due to his ability to fill the stat sheet, the fact that he needed just two more steals to accomplish that feat was certainly impressive. Oubre became the first 76ers player with six steals in the first half of a game since Nerlens Noel, according to Adam Aaronson of PhillyVoice.com, and these eight swipes were easily a career-high mark for the 10-year veteran. Oubre is averaging 12.5 points, 7.3 rebounds, 1.7 assists and 1.9 steals per game over his last 10 appearances, all of them as a starter.
Dec 24, 2024
Ineffective in win
Oubre closed Monday's 111-106 win over the Spurs with 10 points (4-12 FG, 0-6 3Pt, 2-3 FT), six rebounds and one assist in 36 minutes.
ANALYSIS
Joel Embiid took an early exit due to an ejection, and Oubre was unable to capitalize on the extra touches. He's been terrific in December, however, shooting 50.5 percent from the field and 40.5 percent from beyond the arc with averages of 14.0 points, 7.1 rebounds, 1.8 assists, 1.3 steals and 1.9 three-pointers in his last nine games.
Dec 17, 2024
Just misses double-double Monday
Oubre produced 19 points (7-11 FG, 1-4 3Pt, 4-6 FT), nine rebounds, four assists, one block and two steals in 40 minutes during Monday's 121-108 victory over Charlotte.
ANALYSIS
The veteran wing continues to impress on the glass, falling one board short of his fourth straight double-double. Oubre's 19 points were also his highest total since he moved back into the starting five Nov. 22, and during that 10-game span he's averaging 13.3 points, 7.3 rebounds, 2.1 assists, 1.7 steals, 1.5 threes and 0.8 blocks while shooting 52.0 percent from the floor. With breakout rookie Jared McCain (knee) sidelined indefinitely pending surgery, Oubre's role seems secure.
Dec 14, 2024
Logs third straight double-double
Oubre recorded 12 points (6-13 FG, 0-3 3Pt), 13 rebounds and three assists in 34 minutes during Friday's 121-107 loss to Indiana.
ANALYSIS
While it wasn't the most efficient outing scoring-wise, Friday marked Oubre's third straight game with a double-double, and he led the 76ers with 13 rebounds. Oubre has started nine consecutive contests for Philadelphia, a span in which he's averaging a solid 12.7 points, 7.1 rebounds, 1.9 assists, 1.7 steals, 0.8 blocks and 1.6 three-pointers per game. As long as Oubre sticks with the first unit, he should remain a strong source of steals for fantasy managers with the uptick in playing time.
Dec 12, 2024
Good to go against Indiana
Oubre (arm) isn't on the injury report for Friday's game versus the Pacers.
ANALYSIS
Despite injuring his left arm late in Sunday's win over the Bulls, Oubre is set to play against the Pacers. Since being inserted into the starting lineup, Oubre is averaging 12.8 points, 6.4 rebounds, 1.9 steals and 1.8 assists in 33.8 minutes across his last eight appearances.
Dec 8, 2024
Injures arm in Sunday's win
Oubre checked out of Sunday's 108-100 win over the Bulls with 20.4 seconds remaining after appearing to injure his left arm, Adam Aaronson of PhillyVoice.com reports. He'll finish with 12 points (3-6 FG, 2-3 3Pt, 4-4 FT), 10 rebounds, three steals, one assist and one block across 38 minutes.
ANALYSIS
The forward posted his second consecutive double-double in an efficient outing, but he appeared to injure his left arm following a collision with Lonzo Ball. Oubre grabbed at his arm and appeared to be in a significant amount of pain, though he will have until Friday against the Pacers to shake off the injury.
Dec 5, 2024
Hands out season-high five assists
Oubre posted 15 points (5-10 FG, 4-7 3Pt, 1-2 FT), four rebounds, five assists and two steals in 35 minutes during Wednesday's 106-102 loss to Orlando.
ANALYSIS
Oubre's five assists marked a season-high figure Wednesday, and it was also his second straight game sinking four three-pointers. The veteran swingman has now reached double digits in scoring in each of his last six outings, a stretch in which he's averaging 12.8 points, 5.2 rebounds, 2.2 assists, 1.7 steals, 1.0 blocks and 1.8 three-pointers in 32.8 minutes per game. Paul George (rest) should be back in Philadelphia's lineup for Friday's rematch with Orlando after missing Wednesday's meeting, but the 76ers could still need Oubre to function as a starter until Joel Embiid (knee) is cleared to return to action.
Nov 22, 2024
Near double-double as starter
Oubre totaled 11 points (4-8 FG, 1-3 3Pt, 2-2 FT), nine rebounds, three assists, two blocks and two steals over 26 minutes during Friday's 113-98 win over Brooklyn.
ANALYSIS
Oubre got the starting nod Friday in place of the injured Paul George (knee), doing it on both ends of the floor for Philadelphia while concluding as one of six 76ers in double figures in scoring and ending one rebound shy of a double-double. Oubre, who also added a pair of blocks and steals on the defensive end of the court, set a new season high in rebounds while now reaching double figures in scoring in nine outings.
Nov 22, 2024
Returns to starting five
Oubre is in the starting five for Friday's game versus the Nets, Kyle Neubeck of AllPHLY.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Oubre will replace Paul George (knee) in the starting lineup Friday. Oubre is averaging 12.0 points, 5.0 rebounds and 1.8 assists in 30.0 minutes across his last five starting appearances.
Nov 15, 2024
Moves to bench
Oubre isn't in the starting lineup for Friday's game versus the Magic.
ANALYSIS
Paul George will replace Oubre in the starting five Friday. Oubre will come off the bench for the first time this season and is averaging 14.0 points, 5.0 rebounds and 1.3 assists in 31.7 minutes across his last 10 appearances.
Nov 7, 2024
Posts 18 points in defeat
Oubre supplied 18 points (8-12 FG, 1-3 3Pt, 1-1 FT), two rebounds, three assists and one steal in 25 minutes during Wednesday's 110-98 loss to the Clippers.
ANALYSIS
Oubre has started in every game this season, which is encouraging considering Paul George's addition to the team. He switched from the wing to the off-guard position during Wednesday's game, and it will be interesting to see where he ends up once the team gets Joel Embiid (suspension) back. George may no longer be necessary at the four, but with Caleb Martin as the wildcard getting quality minutes, Oubre's future with the first unit appears safe.
Nov 5, 2024
Fouls out in loss
Oubre had 11 points (4-10 FG, 1-5 3Pt, 2-2 FT), four rebounds, two steals and one assist over 32 minutes before fouling out of Monday's 118-116 loss to Phoenix.
ANALYSIS
Oubre tallied a season low in points before being disqualified from the game. However, the 28-year-old did tie his season high in steals. Oubre has struggled to find his shot this season, during which he has shot 40.2 percent from the field and 29.7 percent from beyond the arc.
Oct 27, 2024
Nears double-double in win
Oubre provided 14 points (6-18 FG, 0-4 3Pt, 2-3 FT), eight rebounds and two steals over 38 minutes during Sunday's 118-114 overtime win over Indiana.
ANALYSIS
Oubre contributed his worst game of the season, though he still nearly secured a double-double with 14 points and eight boards. The 28-year-old struggled from outside Sunday, but he has still produced a fairly efficient start to the season thus far. Through three regular-season appearances, Oubre has two games with 20-plus points, and he has also played at least 30 minutes in each game thus far.
Oct 26, 2024
Leads Philly in scoring Friday
Oubre provided 28 points (9-17 FG, 3-6 3Pt, 7-8 FT), two rebounds, two assists and two steals in 39 minutes during Friday's 115-107 loss to the Raptors.
ANALYSIS
Oubre has been the biggest beneficiary of the absences of Joel Embiid (knee) and Paul George (knee), as he's opened the season as the No. 2 option on offense. The veteran forward has performed as such, scoring over 20 points in both contests and shooting 17-for-35 from the field combined. Oubre should continue to experience an uptick in his fantasy upside as long as George and Embiid remain out.
Oct 24, 2024
Goes for 21 points in loss
Oubre ended with 21 points (8-18 FG, 1-6 3Pt, 4-6 FT), two rebounds and one assist over 30 minutes during Wednesday's 124-109 loss to Milwaukee.
ANALYSIS
Oubre moved to small forward with Paul George (knee) out and made the most of the opportunity, reaching the 20-point plateau despite struggling a bit with his shot and overall efficiency. Oubre figures to be a regular for the 76ers all season long, even when the Sixers will be at full strength, but he should see more touches -- and thus, have considerably more upside in fantasy -- as long as George and Joel Embiid (knee) remain sidelined.
Oct 17, 2024
Leads Phiiladelphia in scoring
Oubre posted 18 points (5-8 FG, 2-3 3Pt, 6-7 FT), two rebounds and an assist across 21 minutes in Wednesday's 117-95 preseason win over the Nets.
ANALYSIS
Oubre led the way offensively for a 76ers team missing Joel Embiid (knee) and Paul George (knee). Even though he figures to see a minor role on offense if the team is at full strength, he can step up and embrace a more significant role whenever one of the stars is missing, which might be often considering Embiid's potential resting schedule and injury history, as well as George's own injury concerns. Oubre featured in 68 regular-season games (52 starts) for the 76ers last year and averaged 15.4 points, 5.0 rebounds, 1.5 assists and 1.1 steals over 30.2 minutes per game.
Oct 15, 2024
Struggles from deep vs. Atlanta
Oubre logged 14 points (4-12 FG, 1-8 3Pt, 5-6 FT), three rebounds, one assist and one steal over 27 minutes in Monday's 104-89 preseason win over the Hawks.
ANALYSIS
Despite missing seven of eight three-point attempts Monday, Oubre co-led with Tyrese Maxey in scoring and the former played a game-high 27 minutes. Paul George didn't return for the second half of Monday's contest after injuring his left knee, and Oubre would be the beneficiary in regards to more opportunities on the offensive end of the floor if George were to be sidelined for the early portion of the 2024-25 regular season. Oubre appeared in 68 regular-season games (52 starts) for the 76ers last year and averaged 15.4 points, 5.0 rebounds, 1.5 assists and 1.1 steals over 30.2 minutes per game.
Oct 14, 2024
Back in action
Oubre (rest) will start in Monday's preseason against the Hawks.
ANALYSIS
Oubre, Tyrese Maxey and Paul George are all back in action after resting during Saturday's matchup against the Celtics, which was the second night of a back-to-back set. Oubre's versatility should allow him to stick in the starting lineup throughout the regular season.
Oct 12, 2024
Not starting Saturday
Oubre (rest) is not in the starting lineup for Saturday's preseason game against the Celtics.
ANALYSIS
The Sixers are resting most of their veterans in this contest, meaning Oubre is one of several regulars who won't be seeing the court. The Sixers have three more games in their preseason schedule before their regular-season opener against the Bucks on Oct. 23.
Jul 1, 2024
Set to remain in Philadelphia
Oubre and the 76ers agreed to a two-year, $16.3 million contract Monday, Adrian Wojnarowski of ESPN reports.
ANALYSIS
Oubre's deal includes a player option for the 2025-26 season but will keep him in Philadelphia for at least one more year. The 28-year-old made 68 regular-season appearances for the 76ers last year and averaged 15.4 points and 5.0 rebounds in 30.2 minutes per game. He'll likely see less usage during the 2024-25 campaign after the 76ers agreed to terms with Paul George on Monday, but Oubre will continue to be an asset in Philadelphia due to his solid scoring and rebounding abilities.
May 1, 2024
Scores 14 points in win
Oubre notched 14 points (6-13 FG, 0-3 3Pt, 2-3 FT), four rebounds, one block and two steals across 39 minutes during Tuesday's 112-106 overtime win over the Knicks in Game 5 of the first round of the Eastern Conference playoffs.
ANALYSIS
Oubre played through an illness Tuesday night, but still managed to have a positive impact on the game on both ends of the court. Through five games in this series, Oubre holds averages of 12.4 points, 3.8 rebounds, 1.8 assists, 1.2 blocks, 2.0 steals and 1.2 three-pointers.
Apr 30, 2024
Set to play Tuesday
Oubre (illness) is available for Tuesday's Game 5 agains the Knicks, Tim Bontemps of ESPN.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Oubre has been upgraded from probable to available Tuesday despite dealing with an illness. However, it is possible that the 27-year-old forward sees reduced playing time compared to his 40 minutes in Game 4.
Apr 30, 2024
Probable with illness
Oubre (illness) is probable for Tuesday's Game 5 versus the Knicks, Tim Bontemps of ESPN.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Oubre did not attend the morning shootaround, but the 76ers are still expecting him to play Tuesday evening. Oubre was sharp in Game 4, producing 19 points (7-15 FG, 3-7 3Pt, 2-2 FT), three rebounds, two assists, one block and one steal across 40 minutes.
Apr 28, 2024
Strong from deep in Game 4 defeat
Oubre ended Sunday's 97-92 loss to the Knicks in Game 4 of the first round of the Eastern Conference playoffs with 19 points (7-15 FG, 3-7 3Pt, 2-2 FT), three rebounds, two assists, one block and one steal across 40 minutes.
ANALYSIS
Oubre had another strong offensive outing for Philadelphia in Sunday's contest, connecting on a team-high-tying trio of threes while ending one point shy of the 20-point mark in a losing effort. Oubre has been a nice third option for the 76ers in the first-round series behind Joel Embiid and Tyrese Maxey, tallying at least 15 points in two of the four games and surpassing the double-digit mark in three outings.
Apr 23, 2024
Does little in loss
Oubre logged four points (2-7 FG), two rebounds, three assists and three blocks across 26 minutes during Monday's 104-101 loss to the Knicks in Game 2 of the Eastern Conference Quarterfinals.
ANALYSIS
Oubre's unproductive evening marked his second consecutive subpar performance in the quarterfinals. He joined a mediocre group of starters who scored only 22 points compared to the 69 points accrued by Joel Embiid and Tyrese Maxey. Improved stat lines from Oubre will be necessary for the Sixers to even the series at home.
Apr 13, 2024
Near double-double Friday
Oubre racked up 21 points (6-14 FG, 2-7 3Pt, 7-9 FT), nine rebounds, two assists and one block in 30 minutes during Friday's 125-113 win over the Magic.
ANALYSIS
Oubre was one rebound short of registering his fifth double-double of the season Friday. Oubre has scored 20-plus points in two of his last three games and has reached double-digit scoring in seven straight games. After signing a one-year, $2.89 million contract with the 76ers in September, Oubre has played a key role for the team this season and has likely earned a larger contract for next year.
Apr 8, 2024
Hits for 26 in 2OT win
Oubre closed with 26 points (12-22 FG, 2-6 3Pt, 0-2 FT), eight rebounds, five assists and two steals in 48 minutes during Sunday's 133-126 double-overtime win over the Spurs.
ANALYSIS
With Joel Embiid (knee), Tobias Harris (knee) and a handful of other 76ers sidelined, Oubre stepped up on offense once again, scoring at least 25 points for the third time in the last five games. Since moving into the starting lineup March 8, the 28-year-old forward has averaged 18.6 points, 6.4 boards, 2.5 assists, 1.8 threes, 1.3 steals and 1.0 blocks in 16 contests.
Apr 4, 2024
Flirts with double-double in win
Oubre posted 18 points (8-14 FG, 2-6 3Pt), eight rebounds, two steals and one block over 41 minutes in Thursday's 109-105 win over Miami.
ANALYSIS
Oubre continued his recent hot stretch for Philadelphia by ending two points shy of the 20-point mark and coming up two rebounds shy of a double-double in a balanced outing in Thursday's victory. Oubre, who also swiped a team-high-tying pair of steals, has provided a nice lift offensively as of late, tallying at least 18 points and six rebounds in three straight contests.
Apr 2, 2024
Top scorer in comeback win
Oubre ended with 25 points (8-16 FG, 4-7 3Pt, 5-5 FT), six rebounds, two assists, one steal and one block over 37 minutes in Tuesday's 109-105 win over Oklahoma City.
ANALYSIS
Oubre led all players in Tuesday's contest in scoring while connecting on a quartet of threes and hauling in a half-dozen rebounds to spark Philadelphia in a comeback victory. Oubre has taken advantage of an increase drole offensively as of late while Tyrese Maxey (hip) remains out, connecting on four or more threes along with at least 25 points in two straight contests.
Mar 31, 2024
Strong from deep as top scorer
Oubre notched 32 points (10-22 FG, 6-11 3Pt, 6-7 FT), seven rebounds, three assists, two blocks and two steals over 37 minutes in Sunday's 135-120 win over Toronto.
ANALYSIS
Oubre led all players in Sunday's contest in scoring while connecting on a team-high-tying mark from three to go along with a pair of steals and blocks in a well-rounded performance. Oubre set a new season high in scoring, now having surpassed the 30-point mark in two games this year. He also matched a season high in threes made, a mark he also posted on Christmas Day against Miami.
Mar 28, 2024
Double-double in tough loss
Oubre ended with 17 points (6-17 FG, 0-3 3Pt, 5-5 FT), 11 rebounds, two assists and one steal across 38 minutes during Wednesday's 108-107 loss to the Clippers.
ANALYSIS
The 28-year-old forward very nearly played hero, but his layup attempt at the buzzer was blocked by Kawhi Leonard -- although the refs acknowledged after the game that Oubre was fouled on the play and should have gone to the line with a chance to win it. The double-double was his fourth of the season, with them of them coming since he rejoined the Sixers' starting five Mar. 8. Over his last 10 games, Oubre has averaged 17.6 points, 6.5 boards, 2.5 assists, 1.3 threes, 1.1 steals and 1.0 blocks despite shooting 39.8 percent from the floor and 26.5 percent from beyond the arc.
Mar 27, 2024
Will play Wednesday
Oubre (shoulder) is good to go for Wednesday's game against the Clippers, Keith Pompey of The Philadelphia Inquirer reports.
ANALYSIS
Oubre is back after a one-game absence, and his return will likely correspond with Nicolas Batum heading back to the second unit. Make sure you've got the Tsunami Papi active.
Mar 26, 2024
Questionable to play Wednesday
Oubre (shoulder) is questionable for Wednesday's game versus the Clippers.
ANALYSIS
Oubre is at risk of missing a second consecutive game due to left shoulder soreness. Buddy Hield and Kyle Lowry have been leaned on for 30-plus minute workloads when Oubre has been unavailable in the past, while Ricky Council and KJ Martin typically assume small rotational duties.
Mar 25, 2024
Unavailable vs. Kings
Oubre (shoulder) won't play Monday against Sacramento, Gina Mizell of The Philadelphia Inquirer reports.
ANALYSIS
Oubre was added to the injury report as a game-time call due to a left shoulder injury, and after testing the issue in pregame warmups, he's been downgraded to out. Buddy Hield figures to stand in as the starting small forward with Oubre sitting.
Mar 25, 2024
Iffy for Monday
Oubre is questionable for Monday's game against the Kings with left shoulder soreness.
ANALYSIS
Oubre had a scary fall during Sunday's game against the Clippers which forced him off the court, but he was able to return and seemed physically fine afterwards. However, his status for Monday is in jeopardy due to soreness, and there could be more minutes available for Nicolas Batum and Buddy Hield if Oubre is unable to play.
Mar 24, 2024
Returns to Sunday's game
Oubre has returned to Sunday's game against the Clippers after sustaining a hard fall, Gina Mizell of The Philadelphia Inquirer reports.
ANALYSIS
Oubre immediately re-joined the action after exiting the court for a few minutes, checking back in and promptly having a putback dunk. He appears physically unencumbered.
Mar 24, 2024
Headed to locker room Sunday
Oubre suffered a hard fall in the third quarter of Sunday's game against the Clippers and has exited to the locker room , Adam Aaronson of PhillyVoice.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Oubre drove to the basket and crashed hard to the ground after attempting to finish at the rim in traffic. His status will need to be monitored for a 76ers' rotation that is lacking Kyle Lowry (rest) as well.
Mar 23, 2024
Hits for 19 in Friday's loss
Oubre accumulated 19 points (6-18 FG, 1-5 3Pt, 6-7 FT), six rebounds, three assists, one block and three steals over 35 minutes during Friday's 101-94 loss to the Lakers.
ANALYSIS
The 28-year-old forward continues to be productive for the Sixers as they try to cover for the absence of Joel Embiid (knee). Oubre has scored at least 18 points in seven of eight games since moving back into the starting five, a stretch in which he's averaged 18.4 points, 6.5 boards, 2.1 assists, 1.4 threes, 1.3 steals and 1.1 blocks.
Mar 21, 2024
Fills stat sheet admirably in loss
Oubre registered 18 points (7-20 FG, 2-6 3Pt, 2-4 FT), five rebounds, four assists, three blocks and three steals in 35 minutes during Wednesday's 115-102 loss to the Suns.
ANALYSIS
The 76ers came up short against a Suns team led by Kevin Durant and Devin Booker, but Oubre delivered a strong performance on both ends of the court, filling the stat sheet admirably despite his shooting woes. Oubre has been on a tear since the beginning of March, averaging 20.4 points, 6.1 rebounds, 2.3 assists and 0.9 steals per game.
Mar 19, 2024
Pulls down 11 rebounds Monday
Oubre ended with 22 points (10-19 FG, 2-6 3Pt), 11 rebounds, three assists and five blocks in 39 minutes during Monday's 98-91 win over Miami.
ANALYSIS
Oubre is known for his scoring prowess, so it's not surprising to see him reach the 20-point mark when he's having a good day on offense, but his energy on the glass certainly stood out. Oubre is going through out of his most productive stretches of the season, averaging 20.7 points per game despite subpar shooting percentages since the beginning of March.
Mar 17, 2024
Churns out 22 in Saturday's win
Oubre contributed 22 points (8-16 FG, 1-5 3Pt, 5-5 FT), three rebounds, one assist and one steal over 34 minutes during Saturday's 109-98 win over the Hornets.
ANALYSIS
Making his fifth straight start, Oubre hit for at least 20 points for the fifth time in eight March contests. Saturday's performance came with Tobias Harris (ankle) sidelined, but Oubre's workload and shot volume didn't increase, just his efficiency. On the month, he's averaging 20.5 points, 5.6 boards, 2.0 assists, 1.4 threes and 0.8 steals.
Mar 13, 2024
Pops for team-high 19
Oubre ended Tuesday's 106-79 loss to the Knicks with 19 points (7-15 FG, 3-6 3Pt, 2-4 FT), six rebounds and one assist over 30 minutes.
ANALYSIS
The 28-year-old forward led the depleted Sixers in scoring on the night. Oubre has started the last three games and scored at least 18 points in six straight, averaging 22.2 points, 6.3 boards, 2.5 assists, 1.7 threes and 0.8 steals over that stretch, but his usage could decline once Tyrese Maxey gets back up to speed following his concussion.
Mar 10, 2024
Leads in win with double-double
Oubre supplied 18 points (6-19 FG, 0-3 3Pt, 6-9 FT), 10 rebounds, three assists and three steals over 33 minutes during Sunday's 79-73 victory over New York.
ANALYSIS
Oubre led all Philadelphia players in scoring and steals while ending as one of two players with a double-digit rebound total en route to a double-double performance. Oubre has hauled in 10 or more boards in two games this season, both of which ended in double-doubles. He has now posted at least 18 points in five straight outings.
Mar 9, 2024
Produces 20 points in defeat
Oubre notched 20 points (7-18 FG, 2-6 3Pt, 4-7 FT), seven rebounds and two assists in 34 minutes during Friday's 103-95 loss to New Orleans.
ANALYSIS
Oubre finished as Philadelphia's second-leading scorer, trailing Tobias Harris by one point. The former didn't shoot particularly well from the field or from the free-throw line, but he still finished with his fourth straight performance of 20-plus points. The Sixers have been playing shorthanded, which has allowed Oubre to take on a bigger role offensively, as he's put up at least 17 shots in four straight contests. That volume may fall a bit once Tyrese Maxey (concussion) returns to action, which could happen as soon as the team's next game.
Mar 8, 2024
Back in starting lineup
Oubre will start Friday's game against the Pelicans.
ANALYSIS
With Nicolas Batum (foot) and Tyrese Maxey (concussion) out, Oubre will return to the starting lineup. Across 33 starts this season, Oubre has averaged 14.0 points, 4.7 rebounds and 1.1 steals in 30.4 minutes per game.
Mar 7, 2024
Hits for 25 against Grizzlies
Oubre totaled a team-high 25 points (7-21 FG, 2-7 3Pt, 9-9 FT), four rebounds, one assist, one block and two steals over 34 minutes off the bench during Wednesday's 115-109 loss to Memphis.
ANALYSIS
The 28-year-old forward appears to be more comfortable in a lead role on Philly's second unit than he is starting. Oubre has topped 20 points in three straight games coming off the bench, averaging 25.3 points, 5.0 boards, 3.0 assists and 1,7 threes in 32.0 minutes a contest. With the shorthanded Sixers scrambling to replace Joel Embiid (knee) and Tyrese Maxey (concussion) right now, don't expect Oubre's usage to change as long as he's productive.
Mar 6, 2024
Explodes for 30 points off bench
Oubre finished Tuesday's 112-107 loss to the Nets with 30 points (11-20 FG, 2-5 3Pt, 6-8 FT), six rebounds and four assists in 36 minutes.
ANALYSIS
Oubre came off the bench Tuesday since the coaching staff decided to play Kyle Lowry and Cameron Payne in the backcourt, and that allowed Oubre to focus on what he does best -- scoring off the bench. Oubre is averaging 14.0 points per game as a starter and 13.3 points per game off the bench, so while there aren't any real differences, he averages close to five fewer minutes when deployed in a bench role. Don't be surprised if Oubre remains in that role going forward, as he seems to be slightly more effective when playing with the second unit.
Mar 3, 2024
Fires away
Oubre closed Sunday's 120-116 win over the Mavericks with 21 points (7-17 FG, 1-7 3Pt, 6-7 FT), five rebounds, four assists and one block across 26 minutes.
ANALYSIS
Oubre showed no lingering effects from the right shoulder soreness he was battling up until Sunday's contest, launching at least 15 shots for the 11th time this season. The 28-year-old's firepower can be important to Philadelphia's offense even when it comes inefficiently. That being said, his three-point stroke is failing him of late, with his season average dropping to a lowly 30.3 percent.
Mar 3, 2024
Cleared for Sunday
Oubre (shoulder) will play Sunday versus Dallas, Keith Pompey of The Philadelphia Inquirer reports.
ANALYSIS
Oubre and KJ Martin (knee) have both been cleared for action Sunday. Oubre has averaged 20.0 points, 5.2 rebounds and 1.3 assists in six games against the Mavericks since 2020-21.
Mar 2, 2024
Questionable for Sunday
Oubre (shoulder) is questionable for Sunday's game versus the Mavericks.
ANALYSIS
Oubre was unable to play Friday, but he remains day-to-day. If he's forced to miss another contest, Kyle Lowry could potentially see another start. Lowry had 15 points (5-9 FG, 3-6 3Pt, 2-2 FT), six rebounds and 10 assists across 36 minutes during Friday's win over Charlotte.
Mar 1, 2024
Won't play Friday
Oubre (shoulder) is out for Friday's game versus the Hornets.
ANALYSIS
Oubre has been downgraded from questionable to out Friday due to right shoulder soreness. Kyle Lowry will enter the starting lineup in his absence. Oubre's next chance to suit up is Sunday's matchup with Dallas.
Mar 1, 2024
Dealing with shoulder soreness
Oubre is questionable for Friday's game against the Hornets due to right shoulder soreness.
ANALYSIS
Oubre wasn't listed on the Wizards' initial injury report, but he now joins KJ Martin (ankle) as questionable. If both forwards are ruled out, Nicolas Batum, Buddy Hield, Kyle Lowry and Mo Bamba would be candidates for increased roles.
Feb 27, 2024
Returns to starting lineup
Oubre is in the starting five for Tuesday's game versus the Celtics.
ANALYSIS
Oubre will replace Nicolas Batum in the starting lineup Tuesday. Oubre is averaging 16.4 points, 5.3 rebounds, 1.1 assists and 1.1 steals in 33.7 minutes across his last 10 starting appearances.
Feb 25, 2024
Flirts with double-double off bench
Oubre posted 12 points (5-15 FG, 1-5 3Pt, 1-2 FT), nine rebounds, two assists and three steals across 29 minutes during Sunday's 119-98 loss to the Bucks.
ANALYSIS
Oubre returned to the bench with Nicolas Batum getting the starting nod, hauling in a team-high rebound total while ending as one of five players in double figures in scoring in a losing effort. Oubre, who finished one rebound short of a double-double, has recorded eight or more boards in five games, his first such performance while coming off the bench. He has now reached double figures in scoring in 13 of his last 15 games and in three straight contests.
Feb 25, 2024
Back to bench
Oubre won't start Sunday's game against the Bucks.
ANALYSIS
Oubre started Friday's win over Cleveland in place of Nicolas Batum, but the two forwards will swap places again Sunday. Batum is working his way back from a hamstring issue, so it wouldn't be surprising to see Oubre maintain a sizable role off the bench.
Feb 23, 2024
Starting Friday
Oubre will start at small forward in Friday's matchup with the Cavaliers.
ANALYSIS
After a one-game stint on the bench, Oubre will return to the staring lineup in favor of Nicolas Batum. The veteran wing has averaged 14.5 points, 4.8 rebounds and 1.2 assists across 30.7 minutes in 31 starts this season.
Feb 23, 2024
Scores 14 points off bench
Oubre had 14 points (6-14 FG, 0-3 3Pt, 2-2 FT), four rebounds and two steals in 33 minutes during Thursday's 110-96 loss to the Knicks.
ANALYSIS
Oubre came off the bench for the first time since Jan. 10. Still, the veteran forward has found ways to make an impact regardless of whether he starts or comes off the bench, especially now that the 76ers are without their best player, Joel Embiid, due to a severe knee injury. Oubre has been averaging 17.0 points and 5.1 rebounds per game since the beginning of February.
Feb 22, 2024
Will come off the bench Thursday
Oubre will return to the second unit for Thursday's game against the Knicks, Keith Pompey of The Philadelphia Inquirer reports.
ANALYSIS
Oubre takes a hit with the demotion to the second unit, but he should still be able to flirt with minutes in the mid-20s, so perhaps he can maintain some low-end value in deep leagues. Nicolas Batum will replace him in the first unit, but he's not the most attractive streamer on a busy, 12-game night.
Feb 13, 2024
Anchors offense in win
Oubre amassed 24 points (10-14 FG, 2-3 3Pt, 2-2 FT), three rebounds, one assist, one block and two steals across 41 minutes during Monday's 123-121 victory over the Cavaliers.
ANALYSIS
Oubre, Buddy Hield (24 points) and Tyrese Maxey (22 points) led Philadelphia with just enough offensive punch to defeat the red-hot Cavaliers. Oubre's three-point shot is failing him recently, but he's operating with hefty shot volume and showcasing the ability to get to the free-throw line consistently, creating a solid fantasy floor
Feb 6, 2024
Continues scoring
Oubre ended with 19 points (7-17 FG, 2-7 3Pt, 3-5 FT), six rebounds and one steal across 32 minutes during Monday's 118-102 loss to the Mavericks.
ANALYSIS
Oubre has launched at least 14 shots in six consecutive games, yielding 19.3 points and 5.2 rebounds on 44.8 percent shooting over that span. Oubre continuing this level of production moving forward is unlikely, but he is arguably Philadelphia third-most dynamic offensive contributor behind Tyrese Maxey and Tobias Harris, so his usage will rise during Joel Embiid's (knee surgery) indefinite absence.
Feb 3, 2024
Perfect from line in defeat
Oubre supplied 16 points (3-14 FG, 0-5 3Pt, 10-10 FT), four rebounds and one steal in 25 minutes during Saturday's 136-121 loss to the Nets.
ANALYSIS
Oubre struggled from the field in Saturday's defeat but finished perfect from the line en route to ending as one of two 76ers starters in double figures in a losing effort. Oubre tallied a double-digit free throw total for the first time this year while notching his fourth straight contest with 15 or more points.
Feb 2, 2024
Shines on defense against Jazz
Oubre produced 16 points (6-14 FG, 3-6 3Pt, 1-2 FT), four rebounds, two assists, three blocks and two steals in 40 minutes during Thursday's 127-124 win over the Jazz.
ANALYSIS
The five combined steals and blocks were a season high for Oubre, who scored at least 15 points for the fourth straight game. With Joe Embiid (knee) banged up and a number of other Sixers also injured, Oubre has seen his usage skyrocket -- over those four contests, he's averaging 36.5 minutes and 16.3 field-goal attempts, resulting in 20.3 points, 5.3 boards, 1.8 assists, 1.3 blocks, 1.0 threes and 0.8 steals.
Jan 30, 2024
Leads team in short-handed effort
Oubre chipped in 25 points (11-20 FG, 0-5 3Pt, 3-3 FT), six rebounds and one assist over 31 minutes during Monday's 130-104 loss to the Trail Blazers.
ANALYSIS
Although Oubre registered a goose-egg beyond the arc, he heaved up a season-high 20 shot attempts and managed to shoot over 50 percent elsewhere on the floor. It was Oubre's second consecutive 25-point effort, and as long as De'Anthony Melton (back) remains sidelined, Oubre's solid production will continue
Jan 15, 2024
Moves into starting lineup
Oubre will start Monday's game against the Rockets.
ANALYSIS
Oubre has been cleared to return following a one-game absence, and with De'Anthony Melton (back) sidelined, he'll slide into the starting lineup. Melton is expected to miss at least a week, so Oubre should string together a few looks with the first unit this week. As a starter (14 games), Oubre has averaged 14.0 points, 4.6 rebounds, 1.3 assists and 1.2 steals in 29.7 minutes per game.
Jan 14, 2024
Not on injury report
Oubre (toe) isn't on the injury report for Monday's game against Houston.
ANALYSIS
Oubre was a late scratch for Friday's game against the Kings due to a right toe injury, but he fully participated in Sunday's practice session and has been cleared to return to game action. De'Anthony Melton (back) has been ruled out, so it wouldn't be surprising to see Oubre handle a starting role. Over his last nine starts, Oubre has averaged 13.7 points and 4.0 rebounds in 30.1 minutes per game.
Jan 14, 2024
Turns in full practice
Head coach Nick Nurse said Oubre (toe) was a full participant in Sunday's practice, Austin Krell of USA Today reports.
ANALYSIS
The 76ers have yet to issue an injury report for Monday's game against the Rockets, but based on the extent of his involvement in Sunday's practice, Oubre looks set to return to action as Philadelphia kicks off a four-game week. While Oubre was sidelined for Friday's 112-93 win over the Kings with a sore right big toe, Patrick Beverley (27 minutes) benefited from the biggest boost in playing time among the 76ers' reserves.
Jan 12, 2024
Late scratch
Oubre has been ruled out for Friday's game against Sacramento due to right big toe soreness, Austin Krell of USA Today reports.
ANALYSIS
Oubre is a late scratch with the injury, opening up more playing time for numerous frontcourt options, including Nicolas Batum, Marcus Morris, Kenyon Martin and Danuel House. The extent of Oubre's injury remains unclear, but his next chance to suit up will come Monday versus the Rockets.
Jan 10, 2024
Back to bench
Oubre won't start Wednesday's game against the Hawks.
ANALYSIS
Oubre has drawn nine straight games but will move back to the bench with Tobias Harris and De'Anthony Melton returning to the lineup. As a reserve this season (11 games), Oubre has averaged 13.3 points, 3.6 rebounds and 1.2 steals in 23.3 minutes per game.
Jan 7, 2024
Steps into larger offensive role
Oubre finished with 24 points (8-18 FG, 1-6 3Pt, 7-8 FT), four rebounds, four assists and one steal across 37 minutes during Saturday's 120-109 loss to Utah.
ANALYSIS
With Joel Embiid missing Saturday's game due to left knee swelling, Oubre saw a larger role in the 76ers' offense alongside Tyrese Maxey. Oubre reached 20-plus points for the fifth time this season and he's scored 15-plus points in each of his last three games. Over his last five games, Oubre is averaging 15.8 points on 48.3 percent shooting, 4.0 rebounds, 2.2 assists and 1.2 steals over 29.6 minutes per game.
Jan 5, 2024
Solid game in loss
Oubre ended with 15 points (6-12 FG, 3-6 3Pt), seven rebounds, one assist and three blocks over 31 minutes during Friday's 128-92 loss to the Knicks.
ANALYSIS
Oubre was the only starter to shoot 50 percent in Friday's blowout loss. He's contributed solid minutes since re-entering the starting lineup Dec. 20 and is averaging 12.4 points, 4.0 rebounds, 1.4 assists, 0.9 blocks and 1.4 steals over 29.2 minutes per game in that span.
Dec 25, 2023
Strong from deep in 25-point game
Oubre posted 25 points (9-16 FG, 6-9 3Pt, 1-3 FT), seven rebounds, three assists, one block and one steal over 40 minutes in Monday's 119-113 loss to Miami.
ANALYSIS
Oubre led all players in Monday's Christmas Day showdown in threes made while hauling in a team-high-tying rebound total and finishing as one of two 76ers with 25 or more points in a losing effort. Oubre has posted at least 25 points in three games this season, connecting on five or more threes for the third time.
Dec 21, 2023
Contributes in return as starter
Oubre had seven points (3-6 FG, 1-3 3Pt, 0-1 FT), two rebounds and two steals over 29 minutes during Wednesday's 127-113 victory over Minnesota.
ANALYSIS
Oubre made his first start since mid-November with Robert Covington (illness) and Nicolas Batum (hamstring) out, contributing offensively while adding a pair of steals defensively in a winning effort. Oubre has started in six games this season, averaging 13.3 points, 5.2 rebounds, 1.2 steals and 1.0 assists over that span.
Dec 20, 2023
Back in starting lineup
Oubre will start Wednesday's game against the Timberwolves.
ANALYSIS
With Robert Covington (illness) and Nicolas Batum (hamstring) ruled out, Oubre will make his first start since being hit by a car in mid-November. Across his previous five starts, Oubre has averaged 14.6 points, 5.8 rebounds and 1.0 steals in 29.0 minutes.
Dec 14, 2023
Solid off bench Wednesday
Oubre recorded 17 points (7-9 FG, 2-4 3Pt, 1-2 FT), three rebounds, one assist and two steals over 23 minutes off the bench during Wednesday's 129-111 victory over Detroit.
ANALYSIS
It's the 28-year-old forward's best effort in four games since his return to the lineup after recovering from fractured ribs. Oubre had just moved into the starting lineup back in November prior to being struck by a car, and with Nicolas Batum doing little since joining the Sixers, it's possible he'll regain that assignment once he's fully back up to speed.
Dec 6, 2023
Provides spark off bench in return
Oubre had 12 points (5-8 FG, 1-3 3Pt, 1-1 FT) and three rebounds over 19 minutes in Wednesday's 131-126 win over the Wizards.
ANALYSIS
Oubre missed his last 11 games after suffering a fractured rib in a car accident Nov. 11. He returned to action off the bench and led the reserves in scoring. Oubre was averaging 16.3 points and 5.1 rebounds over 29.0 minutes per game before his injury and will work his way back into the starting lineup.
Dec 6, 2023
Will operate as reserve
Oubre (ribs) will come off the bench during Wednesday's matchup against the Wizards, Lauren Rosen of the 76ers' official site reports.
ANALYSIS
As expected, Oubre will return to action following an 11-game absence but will be under a minutes restriction and be used in short stints as he increases his conditioning level. Before the injury, Oubre was off to a fast start in 2023-24, averaging 16.3 points, 5.1 rebounds and 1.4 steals in 29.0 minutes per game.
Dec 4, 2023
Will play Wednesday
Oubre (ribs) has been cleared to play in Wednesday's game against the Wizards, Keith Pompey of The Philadelphia Inquirer reports.
ANALYSIS
Oubre was a full participant at Monday's practice and walked away without any setbacks. It's likely that Oubre will have restrictions right out of the gate, but his return will provide a big lift to the 76ers on both ends of the court. In eight total appearances this season, Oubre averaged 16.3 points, 5.1 rebounds, 1.4 steals and 1.8 three-pointers.
Dec 1, 2023
Set to practice Monday
76ers coach Nick Nurse said Oubre (ribs) will be a full participant in Monday's practice, Jared Weiss of The Athletic reports.
ANALYSIS
Oubre suffered a fractured rib in a car accident and will miss his 11th straight contest Friday. However, Oubre logging multiple practices at full participation is a good sign of his availability for Wednesday's matchup with Washington.
Nov 30, 2023
Targeting return next week
Oubre (ribs) could return to action as soon as Wednesday against the Wizards, Shams Charania of The Athletic reports.
ANALYSIS
Oubre sustained a fractured rib Nov. 11 when he was struck by a vehicle as a pedestrian, but he returned to practice Nov. 20 and was a full participant in Thursday's practice. He'll be forced to miss Friday's game against Boston but is targeting a return to action in the coming days. If the 27-year-old is unavailable for Wednesday's matchup against Washington, it's certainly possible he's cleared for Friday's game against Atlanta. However, it wouldn't be surprising to see his workload monitored during his first few games back in action.
Nov 30, 2023
Returns to practice
Oubre (ribs) was a full participant in Thursday's practice, Keith Pompey of The Philadelphia Inquirer reports.
ANALYSIS
Oubre has missed Philadelphia's last 10 games due to fractured ribs but is nearing a return. His full participation in practice is a good sign of his availability for Friday's matchup with Boston.
Nov 28, 2023
Ruled out Wednesday
Oubre (ribs) will not play Wednesday against the Pelicans, Ky Carlin of USA Today reports.
ANALYSIS
Oubre has been ramping up his participation in practice with the 76ers, and he will travel with the team to New Orleans. This means there is a chance we could see him return to action as soon as Friday against the Celtics. It's likely that he will have some restrictions early on when he gets the green light.
Nov 27, 2023
Making progress
Coach Nick Nurse said Oubre (ribs) participated in Philadelphia's shootaround Monday and could return to practice Tuesday, Tim Bontemps of ESPN.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Oubre will miss a ninth straight game Monday, but it appears he could return to action soon. Following Monday's matchup, Philadelphia heads out on a two-game road trip, and Nurse said Oubre will potentially travel with the team, which would put him in line to suit up. Before the injury, Oubre was thriving during his first season with the 76ers, averaging 17.4 points, 4.7 rebounds and 1.3 steals in 29.4 minutes over his first seven appearances (four starts).
Nov 21, 2023
Out at least another week
The 76ers announced Tuesday that Oubre (ribs) has participated in individual on-court workouts and will be re-evaluated in approximately one week, Kyle Neubeck of AllPHLY.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Oubre continues to recover from broken ribs he suffered after being hit by a car on Nov. 11. The 27-year-old forward's return to practice is a positive sign but the earliest Oubre can see game action is the very end of November.
Nov 20, 2023
Returns to practice
Oubre (ribs) participated in the 76ers' practice session Monday, Keith Pompey of the Philadelphia Enquirer reports.
ANALYSIS
Oubre recently resumed taking part in light work at the 76ers' practice facility, and the team was encouraged by the step he took Monday. He'll be closely evaluated by the team's medical staff Monday and Tuesday before he receives a better timetable to return to game action. While Oubre was initially expected to miss significant time after being struck by a car in mid-November, he's made relatively quick progress following the incident and could be ready to return to game action in weeks rather than months.
Nov 16, 2023
Could be back in two-plus weeks
Oubre (ribs) has resumed taking part in "light work" at the 76ers' practice facility, and the team has hope that he could return to game action in around "two-plus weeks," Adrian Wojnarowski of ESPN reports.
ANALYSIS
The 76ers announced over the weekend that Oubre was diagnosed with a fractured rib in addition to multiple cuts and lacerations after the 27-year-old was struck by a car while crossing a street in Philadelphia this past Saturday. Oubre is scheduled to be re-evaluated this weekend or early next week, and if he continues to heal as expected, he could be cleared to intensify his on-court work. Wojnarowski suggests that the 76ers have some optimism that Oubre could be ready to play by late November or early December, which would be welcome news after the veteran forward's prognosis initially appeared to be much grimmer. Oubre opened the season as the 76ers' sixth man but had started in each of his last five appearances prior to his involvement in the accident, averaging 14.6 points, 5.8 rebounds, 1.8 three-pointers and 1.0 steals in 29.0 minutes per contest as a member of the starting five.
Nov 12, 2023
Will be re-evaluated in one week
Philadelphia announced Sunday that Oubre suffered a fractured rib after being struck by a car Saturday night and will be re-evaluated in one week, Kyle Neubeck of AllPHLY.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Shams Charania of The Athletic and Adrian Wojnarowski of ESPN reported that Oubre would miss "significant time" after the accident, so Philadelphia's one-week timeline may be a bit deceiving. The forward was released from the hospital the same night as the incident, but it wouldn't be surprising if he stayed home to rest before rejoining the team later in the week. Oubre was flourishing during his first season with the 76ers, averaging 16.3 points, 5.1 rebounds and 1.4 steals in 29.9 minutes per game across eight appearances, so his absence will be felt. Furkan Korkmaz, Marcus Morris and Nicolas Batum are all candidates for increased playing time until Oubre is cleared to return.
Nov 12, 2023
Diagnosed with broken ribs
Oubre sustained broken ribs and an assortment of bruises and cuts after being struck by a car in Philadelphia on Saturday night, Shams Charania of The Athletic reports.
ANALYSIS
Oubre is expected to miss "significant time" due to the injuries, but this is considered a positive update after Saturday's accident. The forward was flourishing during his first season with the 76ers, averaging 16.3 points, 5.1 rebounds and 1.4 steals in 29.9 minutes per game across eight appearances, so his absence will be felt. Furkan Korkmaz, Marcus Morris and Nicolas Batum are all candidates for increased playing time until Oubre is cleared to return.
Nov 11, 2023
To miss significant time
Oubre was struck by a vehicle as a pedestrian Saturday night in Philadelphia and was taken to a local hospital for treatment of undisclosed injuries, Adrian Wojnarowski of ESPN reports.
ANALYSIS
Oubre is in stable condition, but he's expected to miss "significant time" while recovering from his injuries. Early indications point to a return at some point this season, per Wojnarowski. With Oubre sidelined for the foreseeable future, look for Furkan Korkmaz, Marcus Morris and Nicolas Batum to see an increase in playing time.
Nov 7, 2023
Invisible in win
Oubre finished with three points (1-5 FG, 0-2 3Pt, 1-2 FT), five rebounds, one assist, one block and one steal over 27 minutes during Monday's 146-128 victory over the Wizards.
ANALYSIS
Oubre is known for being a streaky shooter, and he had averaged 24.0 points in his previous two games. He has been given a sizable role with the 76ers, but it remains to been seen if the franchise decides to pursue another star with their newly-acquired draft picks from the James Harden trade.
Nov 4, 2023
Anchors offense
Oubre notched 25 points (10-18 FG, 3-7 3Pt, 2-3 FT), three rebounds and one block across 35 minutes during Saturday's 112-100 victory over the Suns.
ANALYSIS
Oubre has been a vital presence in the 76ers' offense, and his 25 points marked a team-high Saturday. The 27-year-old has been an inconsistent provider of stats supplemental to scoring throughout his career and he has a track record of streaky production, so it's uncertain if he can sustain his hot start. Nonetheless, he's immediately slotted in as a prominent contributor despite his late-offseason addition to Philadelphia.
Nov 2, 2023
Lifts offense in starting lineup
Oubre ended Thursday's 114-99 victory over Toronto with 23 points (8-13 FG, 5-6 3Pt, 2-3 FT), five rebounds and one steal across 30 minutes.
ANALYSIS
Oubre entered the starting lineup Thursday following the trade of James Harden and P.J. Tucker to the Los Angeles Clippers, finishing second on the team in scoring while leading all 76ers players in threes made while surpassing the 20-point mark. Oubre tallied his second game of 20 or more points in four appearances, posting his highest point total since notching a season-high 27 points in the season-opener Oct. 26 against Milwaukee. Oubre has also hauled in five or more rebounds in two of his four outings this year.
Nov 2, 2023
Starting against Toronto
Oubre is in the starting lineup to face the Raptors on Thursday.
ANALYSIS
This is not a surprising development, as head coach Nick Nurse said Oubre will take on a starting role in the short term earlier this week after James Harden and P.J. Tucker were traded to the Clippers. Oubre has been productive off the bench this season, averaging 19.0 points, 4.0 rebounds and 2.0 steals in 29.0 minutes per game over three appearances.
Nov 1, 2023
Set to start
Coach Nick Nurse said Wednesday that Oubre will take on a starting role in the short term, Kyle Neubeck of AllPHLY.com reports.
ANALYSIS
The 76ers recently acquired several frontcourt players as part of the trade that sent James Harden to the Clippers, but Philadelphia will elect to roll with Oubre as the fifth starter for now. Oubre has been productive off the bench this year, averaging 19.0 points, 4.0 rebounds and 2.0 steals in 29.0 minutes per game over three matchups. However, if he struggles at some point, it wouldn't be surprising to see the 76ers turn to Robert Covington (not injury related), Marcus Morris (personal), Nicolas Batum (not injury related) or Kenyon Martin (not injury related) as a starter.
Oct 28, 2023
Continues to contribute off bench
Oubre had 18 points (7-17 FG, 0-6 3Pt, 4-5 FT), five rebounds, two assists and three steals across 29 minutes in Saturday's 114-107 win over the Raptors.
ANALYSIS
Oubre, who signed a one-year deal with the 76ers on Sept. 18, built off his 27-point performance in the season opener with yet another solid outing coming off the bench. He missed all six of his three-point shots on the night but was efficient from the line and led the reserves in scoring. He'll look to continue his momentum Sunday as the 76ers face off against the Trail Blazers in their home opener.
Oct 26, 2023
Excellent off bench despite loss
Oubre ended with 27 points (9-11 FG, 5-6 3Pt, 4-4 FT), four rebounds and one steal in 32 minutes during Thursday's 118-117 loss to the Bucks.
ANALYSIS
Oubre was outstanding in his Sixers debut, and despite the fact he came off the bench, he was highly efficient and finished as the team's second-best scorer, only behind the 31-point output from Tyrese Maxey. It would be a stretch to expect Oubre to score around 20 points per game, especially if he comes off the bench, but he should score enough -- and with consistency -- to remain valuable across all fantasy formats. Due to his offensive-minded profile, he's going to get minutes and chances to make an impact as a scorer.
Oct 20, 2023
Moves back to bench
Oubre isn't in the starting five for Friday's preseason game versus the Hawks, Austin Krell of USA Today reports.
ANALYSIS
Oubre will be replaced by P.J. Tucker in the starting lineup in Friday's preseason finale. Oubre is expected to be one of Philadelphia's first options off the bench at the forward position this season.
Oct 17, 2023
Impressive against Brooklyn
Oubre accounted for 21 points (9-24 FG, 3-9 3Pt, 0-1 FT), four rebounds, four assists, two steals and two blocks across 33 minutes in Monday's 127-119 preseason win over the Nets.
ANALYSIS
Oubre can make a huge impact as a scoring weapon regardless of his role, as he averaged a career-high 20.3 points per game with Charlotte during the 2022-23 season. Given the Sixers' depth, however, he's slated to open the season as the go-to scorer of the second unit, a role in which he's also flourished in the past.
Oct 16, 2023
Joins starters
Oubre is in the starting lineup for Monday's preseason contest against Indiana, Gina Mizell of The Philadelphia Inquirer reports.
ANALYSIS
Oubre will start in place of P.J. Tucker (ankle). Making his first start for Philadelphia, Oubre will be joined by Tyrese Maxey, De'Anthony Melton, Tobias Harris and Paul Reed.
Oct 12, 2023
Excellent off bench despite loss
Oubre recorded 22 points (6-8 FG, 4-6 3Pt, 2-3 FT), three rebounds, an assist and two blocks across 22 minutes off the bench in Wednesday's 112-101 preseason loss to the Celtics.
ANALYSIS
Oubre's role with the Sixers remains to be seen, as he's good enough to be a starter but can also thrive on a bench role if needed. With the Sixers currently having Tobias Harris and P.J. Tucker as the starting forwards, it wouldn't be surprising if Oubre begins the season as the go-to offensive threat in the second unit. To note, he's coming off a 2022-23 season in which he averaged a career-high 20.3 points per game with Charlotte.
Sep 18, 2023
Expected to sign one-year deal
Oubre is expected to sign a one-year deal with the 76ers on Monday, Adrian Wojnarowski of ESPN reports.
ANALYSIS
Oubre averaged a career-high 20.3 points per game for the Hornets last year and was one of the top remaining free agents with just under a month until training camps begin. He lands in an interesting spot in Philadelphia, as Tobias Harris and P.J. Tucker are locked into starting forward spots, while guys like Danuel House, Paul Reed and Furkan Korkmaz compete for backup minutes. Oubre likely would serve in a sixth-man role if everyone is available. However, if James Harden is moved, there's a clear opening for a playmaking forward like Oubre. It appears Harden will begin the campaign with the 76ers, but he could be moved mid-season, especially if he refuses to play. Oubre's fantasy value isn't as high as it was when he garnered a major role on a nightly basis for the Hornets, but he could be viable if/when more minutes open up.
Apr 8, 2023
Out for finale
Oubre (shoulder) will not play in Sunday's finale against the Cavaliers.
ANALYSIS
Oubre played just 48 games this season but was aggressive when available and averaged a career-high 20.3 points per game. He also chipped in 5.2 rebounds, 1.4 steals and 1.1 assists in 32.3 minutes.
Apr 6, 2023
Another absence on tap Friday
Oubre (shoulder) will miss Friday's game versus the Rockets.
ANALYSIS
Oubre's absence is hardly a surprise for a club that is resting the majority of its rotation regulars down the stretch. Friday's absence marks Oubre's seventh straight, and it seems unlikely he will return for Sunday's regular-season finale in Cleveland.
Apr 3, 2023
Sitting out again
Oubre (shoulder) will not play Tuesday against Toronto.
ANALYSIS
Oubre is said to be battling a shoulder strain that'll cost him a sixth straight game, and at this point in the calendar it's quite possible that his 2022-23 season is over. The Hornets are holding out several other veterans Tuesday, including Gordon Hayward (thumb), Terry Rozier (foot) and P.J. Washington (foot).
Apr 2, 2023
Ruled out
Oubre (shoulder) will not play in Sunday's game against the Raptors.
ANALYSIS
Oubre will miss a fifth straight game due to a strained right shoulder, joining P.J. Washington (foot), Gordon Hayward (thumb, Cody Martin (knee) and Terry Rozier (foot) among others on the sidelines. With the Hornets incredibly thin, look for Svi Mykhailiuk, Bryce McGowens and James Bouknight to all see massive roles on the wing. Oubre will have another chance to return Tuesday against Toronto.
Apr 1, 2023
Questionable Sunday
Oubre (shoulder) is questionable for Sunday's game against the Raptors.
ANALYSIS
Oubre has missed the past four games with a strained right shoulder. The Hornets are likely in no rush to bring him back with just four games left on the schedule and essentially nothing to play for.
Mar 31, 2023
Downgraded to out
Oubre (shoulder) won't play in Friday's game versus the Bulls, Chuck Swirsky of the Bulls Radio Network reports.
ANALYSIS
Oubre will miss his fourth straight game Friday after being downgraded from questionable to out with a right shoulder strain. Svi Mykhailiuk will likely continue to start in his place. Oubre's next chance to suit up is Sunday's matchup with Toronto.
Mar 30, 2023
Questionable vs. Bulls
Correcting a previous update, Oubre (shoulder) is questionable for Friday's game against the Bulls.
ANALYSIS
Oubre has missed three straight games due to a strained right shoulder. While there's no rush to bring him back, given the team's place in the standings, the Hornets don't seem interested in shutting him down at the moment.
Mar 30, 2023
Doubtful vs. Bulls
Hayward (shoulder) is unlikely to be available for Friday's tilt against the Bulls.
ANALYSIS
A strained right shoulder is expected to sideline the veteran for a fourth straight game. The Hornets have only lottery positioning to play for, so there's no rush to bring Hayward back.
Mar 28, 2023
Ruled out against Thunder
Oubre (shoulder) won't play in Tuesday's game versus Oklahoma City.
ANALYSIS
Oubre will miss his third straight game Tuesday due to a right shoulder strain. Svi Mykhailiuk should continue to start in his absence. Oubre's next chance to suit up is Friday's matchup with Chicago.
Mar 27, 2023
Questionable Tuesday
Oubre (shoulder) is questionable for Tuesday's contest against the Thunder.
ANALYSIS
After missing Charlotte's previous two contests, Oubre is still uncertain for Tuesday's matchup against the Thunder. If the 27-year-old is unable to suit up, Svi Mykhailiuk figures to remain in the Hornet's starting lineup. Mykhailiuk has started Charlotte's last two outings, averaging 10.0 points, 3.0 rebounds, 3.0 assists and 1.0 steals over 35.0 minutes per game.
Mar 26, 2023
Ruled out
Oubre (shoulder) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against Dallas.
ANALYSIS
Oubre will miss back-to-back games due to a right shoulder strain. Terry Rozier (foot) and Cody Martin (knee) are also out, so Bryce McGowens, Svi Mykhailiuk and Dennis Smith are all candidates for expanded roles versus the Mavericks.
Mar 25, 2023
Questionable vs. Mavs
Oubre (shoulder) is questionable for Sunday's clash against the Mavericks, Roderick Boone of The Charlotte Observer reports.
ANALYSIS
Oubre could return following a one-game absence due to a strained right shoulder. However, if he remains out, more minutes should remain available for Svi Mykhailiuk, JT Thor and other wings.
Mar 24, 2023
Won't play Friday
Oubre (shoulder) is out for Friday's game versus the Mavericks.
ANALYSIS
Oubre has been downgraded from questionable to out Friday due to a right shoulder strain. Dennis Smith and Bryce McGowens are candidates to see extended minutes in his absence. Oubre's next chance to suit up is Sunday's matchup with Dallas.
Mar 24, 2023
Questionable Friday
Oubre (shoulder) is questionable for Friday's game against the Mavericks.
ANALYSIS
Oubre sustained a right shoulder strain Thursday against the Pelicans and was unable to return. It's unclear whether he'll be able to suit up for the second half of the back-to-back set, but Bryce McGowens and Svi Mykhailiuk could see increased playing time if Oubre is sidelined.
Mar 23, 2023
Will not return Thursday
Oubre has been ruled out for the remainder of Thursday's game against the Pelicans with a right shoulder strain.
ANALYSIS
Oubre exited Thursday's tilt in the second quarter after recording eight points, three rebounds, two assists and two steals over 12 minutes. With Terry Rozier (foot) doubtful to return, Dennis Smith, Bryce McGowens and Svi Mykhailiuk will handle the brunt of the backcourt work. Oubre will have a short recovery window as the Hornets visit the Mavericks on Friday.
Mar 21, 2023
Game-high 28 points in comeback win
Oubre produced 28 points (10-17 FG, 3-7 3Pt, 5-9 FT), three rebounds and four steals across 33 minutes during Monday's 115-109 win over Indiana.
ANALYSIS
Oubre has scored at least 20 points in seven of his last nine games. He was efficient on the night and reversed his poor three-point shooting. The seventh-year wing had made just one of 10 threes over the last two games. He also snagged an impressive four steals, matching his total from the previous eight games. The Hornets are last in the NBA in offensive rating, but Oubre should keep putting up points on volume alone.
Mar 15, 2023
Tops 20 again Tuesday
Oubre finished with a game-high 28 points (11-17 FG, 1-4 3Pt, 5-5 FT), six rebounds, one assist and one block in 34 minutes during Tuesday's 120-104 loss to the Cavaliers.
ANALYSIS
Since moving into the starting lineup at the beginning of March, Oubre has scored more than 20 points in six of seven games -- including four straight -- while averaging 25.4 points, 6.6 boards, 3.0 threes and 1.3 assists. With the Hornets having their sights set firmly on the draft lottery, it's possible the 27-year-old has his workload cut back down the stretch in favor of younger players, but for now Oubre seems to be the top option in the Charlotte offense.
Mar 14, 2023
Cleared for Tuesday
Oubre (back) will play in Tuesday's action against the Cavaliers.
ANALYSIS
As expected, Oubre will return from a one-game absence due to back soreness. He's started six straight appearances and averaged 25.0 points, 6.7 rebounds and 1.3 assists in 37.3 minutes. His return is expected to push Dennis Smith back to the bench.
Mar 13, 2023
Likely to play Tuesday
Oubre (back) is probable for Tuesday's game against the Cavaliers.
ANALYSIS
Oubre missed Sunday's game against the Cavaliers due to his back issue, but he'll likely be available for Tuesday's rematch. He's started in his last six appearances and has averaged 25.0 points and 6.7 rebounds in 37.3 minutes per game during that time.
Mar 12, 2023
Officially out Sunday
Oubre (back) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against Cleveland.
ANALYSIS
Oubre was doubtful for the second half of a back-to-back set Sunday, so his status isn't particularly surprising. Dennis Smith, Bryce McGowens and Svi Mykhailiuk are candidates to see increased run against the Cavaliers, while Oubre's next chance to suit up will be during Tuesday's rematch against Cleveland.
Mar 12, 2023
Doubtful Sunday
Oubre (back) is doubtful for Sunday's game against the Cavs, Roderick Boone of The Charlotte Observer reports.
ANALYSIS
It appears the Oubre will be hitting the sidelines for the second night of this back-to-back after he tweaked his back during Saturday's game, which may result in Dennis Smith earning a spot start and there will be more minutes available for guys like Svi Mykhailiuk and Kai Jones. Gordon Hayward should see a sizeable uptick in usage, as well.
Mar 12, 2023
Bombs away
Oubre amassed 24 points (7-20 FG, 6-12 3Pt, 4-4 FT), five rebounds, two assists and one block over 36 minutes during Saturday's 119-111 loss to the Jazz.
ANALYSIS
Oubre is on fire, connecting on 52.0 percent of 8.3 three-point attempts across his last three games. He's scored at least 24 points in each affair. There's a chance contract-year Oubre could be a scoring dynamo down the stretch.
Mar 9, 2023
Strong from three as leading scorer
Oubre contributed 27 points (9-16 FG, 4-7 3Pt, 5-5 FT), four rebounds, two assists and one steal in 38 minutes during Thursday's 113-103 win over the Pistons.
ANALYSIS
Oubre connected on a team-high mark from three while leading the team in scoring in a near 30-point performance. Oubre has tallied at least 25 points in four of his last five games, having done so 12 times this season.
Mar 8, 2023
Leading scorer in Tuesday's win
Oubre posted a team-high 27 points (10-17 FG, 3-6 3Pt, 4-4 FT), five rebounds, two assists and one block in 36 minutes during Tuesday's 112-105 victory over the Knicks.
ANALYSIS
Three different Hornets scored more than 20 points but Oubre led the trio, and he continues to put up big numbers since moving into the starting five. While starting the last four games, the 27-year-old wing is averaging 24.8 points, 7.8 boards, 2.5 threes and 1.3 assists in 37.5 minutes a night, and his workload doesn't appear likely to shrink with LaMelo Ball (ankle) done for the year.
Mar 3, 2023
Drops 29 points in loss Friday
Oubre closed Friday's 117-106 loss to the Magic with 29 points (10-19 FG, 4-9 3Pt, 5-5 FT), 10 rebounds, two assists and two steals over 41 minutes.
ANALYSIS
Oubre continues to serve as the focal point on the offensive end, dropping a team-high 29 points to go with 10 boards. Since returning from injury, Oubre has not been shy in coming forward. He is more than happy to lead from the front when it comes to shot attempts, something that actually paid dividends in this one. With LaMelo Ball (ankle) done for the season, Oubre should have a clear path to value as long as he can stay healthy.
Mar 2, 2023
Scores 26 in loss
Oubre accumulated 26 points (9-24 FG, 3-10 3Pt, 5-5 FT), nine rebounds, one assist and one block in 38 minutes during Wednesday's 105-91 loss to the Suns.
ANALYSIS
Oubre got the starting nod Wednesday night an picked up the scoring slack for an injured LaMelo Ball (ankle). While it wasn't very efficient, it was the first time Oubre topped 20 points since he returned from his own injury. His last few games have been trending upward in the points and rebounds categories, but the 27-year-old still doesn't often provide fantasy managers with good percentages or assists.
Mar 1, 2023
Will start Wednesday
Oubre will start Wednesday's game against the Suns, Roderick Boone of The Charlotte Observer reports.
ANALYSIS
Oubre will get inserted into the starting lineup with LaMelo Ball (ankle) out again. With Ball sidelined to start the season, the lefty forward drew 28 straight start and posted 21.1 points, 5.3 rebounds, 1.8 steals and 1.2 assists during that stretch. Oubre should garner similar usage with Charlotte down its top playmaker for the rest of the season, so he figures to be a high-end option for the fantasy playoffs.
Feb 25, 2023
Scores eight in return
Oubre provided eight points (2-6 FG, 0-3 3Pt, 4-4 FT), three rebounds and one steal over 23 minutes during Friday's 121-113 victory over the Timberwolves.
ANALYSIS
Oubre returned to the floor for the first time since December (hand) and naturally showed some rust. He did see a solid 23 minutes off the bench, which is very promising, but it's entirely possible that he continues in this reserve role for a while, unless they decide to go small by putting P.J. Washington at center for certain matchups. Either way, the 27-year-old could soon provide decent value in points leagues again if he starts to get closer to 30 minutes a night.
Feb 24, 2023
Will be available Friday
Oubre (hand) is available for Friday's matchup against the Timberwolves.
ANALYSIS
As expected, Oubre will make his first appearance since Dec. 29 following a lengthy rehab from surgery on his left hand. Before his injury, the lefty was light out, posting 20.6 points in 33.2 minutes, but he may be a little rusty following nearly two months off. He'll also likely be relegated to a bench role with the Hornets close to full strength, but Oubre figures to still garner significant usage as a reserve.
Feb 23, 2023
Expected to return Friday
Oubre (hand) is probable for Friday's game against the Timberwolves.
ANALYSIS
Oubre hasn't played since Dec. 29. He underwent surgery to address a left hand injury Jan. 5 and was struggling to make any progress in rehab. However, it appears the extended time off during the All-Star break was beneficial for the lefty forward. Given the injury wasn't to his lower body, Oubre shouldn't have any conditioning concerns during his expected return, but he may be a bit rusty offensively. With the Hornets close to full strength, he figures to operate as a reserve, but he should still garner significant usage when he's back to full speed.
Feb 3, 2023
Rules self out through break
Oubre suggested Thursday that he expects to transition into a smaller brace to protect his surgically repaired left hand, Roderick Boone of The Charlotte Observer reports. He anticipates wearing the brace for 1-to-2 weeks. "And then right after [the 1-to-2-week period] we'll be at All-Star break," Oubre said. "And then that's, Godspeed, the plan to come back."
ANALYSIS
Oubre has been on the mend from Jan. 5 surgery for just under a month and hasn't made much in the way of tangible progress over the past few weeks while waiting for his hand to heal. At this point, Oubre has been limited to taking part in pregame conditioning work and putting up shots strictly with his right, non-shooting hand, but the 27-year-old is optimistic he'll be able to accelerate his recovery once he sheds the splint he has on his left hand for a sleeker brace. Once healthy, Oubre tentatively projects to settle into a role as the Hornets' sixth man, though the Charlotte roster could look different following next week's trade deadline.
Jan 3, 2023
Out at least a month after surgery
Oubre will undergo surgery on a torn ligament in his left hand and will be sidelined for 4-to-6 weeks, Shams Charania of The Athletic reports.
ANALYSIS
Per Charania, Oubre suffered the hand injury during the first week of the season but has been playing through the issue. Shockingly, the lefty has still been able to average a career-high 20.2 points despite pain in his shooting hand, but it appears the issue wasn't getting any better. Oubre will be shut down for at least a month following his surgery, which should open up more playing time for Jalen McDaniels, Dennis Smith, Mark Williams and JT Thor.
Jan 1, 2023
Not playing Monday
Oubre (hand) has been ruled out of Monday's game against the Lakers.
ANALYSIS
Oubre is set to miss a second straight game and third of Charlotte's last four, and that's not a positive sign for a team that's already quite thin when it comes to reliable offensive weapons. Oubre's next chance to play will come Wednesday against the Grizzlies, and his absence should translate into more minutes for the likes of Jalen McDaniels and JT Thor. Oubre averaged 20.9 points and 4.9 rebounds per game across 14 December contests.
Dec 30, 2022
Ruled out Saturday
Oubre (hand) will not play in Saturday's game against the Nets.
ANALYSIS
Oubre was listed as doubtful before being cleared for Thursday's game but re-aggravated the injury in the contest and will take Saturday off to allow the sprained left hand to heal. Jalen McDaniels and Bryce McGowens should pick up the brunt of Oubre's vacated minutes. His next chance to take the floor will come Monday versus the Lakers.
Dec 29, 2022
Exits with hand sprain
Oubre has been ruled out for the remainder of Thursday's game against the Thunder due to a left hand sprain.
ANALYSIS
This is the same injury that Oubre had heading into Thursday's matchup, so it appears as though he's aggravated his pre-existing issue. Bryce McGowens and Jalen McDaniels could see additional minutes the rest of the way as a result.
Dec 29, 2022
Upgraded to available
Oubre (hand) will play in Thursday's game against the Thunder after being tabbed as doubtful, Roderick Boone of The Charlotte Observer reports.
ANALYSIS
In a surprising turn of events, Oubre will be active Thursday after missing the team's most recent contest due to a sprained left hand. Jalen Mcdaniels will be in line for less work with Oubre back, however, Oubre may not receive his usual workload considering he was initially listed as doubtful and will likely be playing through the injury.
Dec 28, 2022
Unlikely to play Thursday
Oubre (hand) is doubtful for Thursday's game against the Thunder.
ANALYSIS
Oubre was unavailable Tuesday against the Warriors due to a sprained left hand, and he appears to be on track for a second consecutive absence Thursday. Jalen McDaniels will likely see increased playing time once again during Thursday's matchup.
Dec 27, 2022
Won't play Tuesday
Oubre won't play in Tuesday's game against Golden State due to a left hand sprain.
ANALYSIS
This is the first report of Oubre's hand injury, as the forward posted 15 points, five rebounds and one assist in 33 minutes during the Hornets' loss to the Blazers on Monday. With Oubre out, Jalen McDaniels is a candidate to see increased usage versus the Warriors.
Dec 20, 2022
Explodes for 31 points Monday
Oubre notched 31 points (12-25 FG, 3-8 3Pt, 4-6 FT), nine rebounds, one assist, one block and one steal across 38 minutes during Monday's 125-119 victory over the Kings.
ANALYSIS
Oubre came off the bench in each of his two contests prior to Monday, but he returned to the starting unit and played 38 minutes against Sacramento. The veteran responded with a team-high 31 points, the second-most he has scored in a game this season. The big performance pushed Oubre's season average to 21.1 points per contest, which is on pace for a career-high mark.
Dec 19, 2022
Gets chance with first unit
Oubre is starting Monday's game against the Kings.
ANALYSIS
Oubre will enter the starting five in place of Terry Rozier, who is out Monday with a hip injury. Oubre started his team's first 28 games of the season but had come off the bench in Charlotte's last two matchups heading into Monday.
Dec 16, 2022
Absent from starting five
Oubre will come off the bench Friday against Atlanta, Roderick Boone of The Charlotte Observer reports.
ANALYSIS
Oubre's lengthy stretch in the starting lineup comes to an end Friday with Gordon Hayward (shoulder) back in action. He should still be expected to maintain a large role as the Hornets' sixth man, especially with P.J. Washington (personal) out.
Dec 14, 2022
Delivers game-high 28 points
Oubre recorded 28 points (10-27 FG, 5-13 3Pt, 3-5 FT), eight rebounds, one assist, one block and three steals across 40 minutes during Wednesday's 141-134 overtime loss to the Pistons.
ANALYSIS
Oubre paced his squad's scoring attack and turned in one of his best nights on the season from beyond the arc, tying his best mark of five made triples. The Kansas product has now reached the 20-point threshold in nine straight matchups.
Dec 11, 2022
Another 20-point performance
Oubre produced 29 points (11-23 FG, 3-8 3Pt, 4-7 FT), three rebounds, an assist, two steals and a block in 37 minutes in Sunday's 131-113 loss in Philadelphia.
ANALYSIS
Oubre went 10-for-16 from the field in the first three quarters before cooling off and missing six of his last seven tries. It was his eighth straight game with at least 20 points and he's averaging 24.9 points while making 46.3 percent of his shot attempts. He's making the most of a larger role in the Hornets' offense and is attempting 17.8 shots per game, three more than any other season in his career.
Dec 10, 2022
Continues strong work as scorer
Oubre finished with 22 points (8-20 FG, 2-8 3Pt, 4-5 FT), four rebounds, one assist, one block and two steals over 37 minutes during Friday's 121-102 loss to the Knicks.
ANALYSIS
Oubre was Charlotte's second-leading scorer in the contest, finishing just two points short of Terry Rozier. It was both players' seventh straight contest with 20-plus points as they've tried to make up for the lengthy absences of LaMelo Ball (ankle) and Gordon Hayward (shoulder). Oubre's taking full advantage of an ample amount of playing time this season, and he's on pace to finish with an average of 20-plus points per game for the first time in his career. He's also been a big boost to fantasy squads defensively, ranking eighth in the league with 1.7 steals per contest.
Dec 7, 2022
Scores 28 points in loss
Oubre supplied 28 points (11-20 FG, 3-7 3Pt, 3-5 FT), eight rebounds, one assist, one block and two steals across 41 minutes during Wednesday's 122-116 loss to the Nets.
ANALYSIS
Oubre scored 18 of his 28 points in the second half while making seven of his 13 shot attempts after halftime. He's scored at least 20 points in eight of his last nine games and is averaging 24.3 points while making 48.0 percent of his shots in that span. He's averaging more than 20 points per game for the first time in his career -- 20.4 points per game to be exact -- and his 32.7 minutes per game are his most since the 2019-2020 season.
Dec 6, 2022
Pops for 28 in Monday's loss
Oubre finished Monday's 119-117 loss to the Clippers with 28 points (10-23 FG, 4-10 3Pt, 4-6 FT), seven rebounds and two assists over 40 minutes.
ANALYSIS
The 26-year-old continues to shine for the undermanned Hornets, leading the team in scoring on the night as he delivered his fifth straight performance with 20 or more points and 10th in the last 14 games. Oubre is on pace for the best season of his career, and through 24 games he's averaging better than 20 points a night, which would top the 18.7 points he averaged in 2019-20 for the Suns.
Dec 4, 2022
Fourth straight 20-point game
Oubre notched 20 points (4-14 FG, 1-5 3Pt, 11-12 FT), two rebounds and two steals across 39 minutes during Saturday's 105-96 loss to the Bucks.
ANALYSIS
Oubre had a first half to forget, going 1-of-7 from the field for five points as the Hornets struggled to keep pace with Milwaukee. He made only three of seven shot attempts in the second half but went 9-of-10 from the free-throw line to finish third on the team in scoring with 20 points. Oubre made a season-high 11 free throws in the contest and has now scored at least 20 points in four straight.
Nov 26, 2022
Leads Charlotte in scoring
Oubre ended Friday's 110-108 victory over the Timberwolves with 28 points (10-21 FG, 3-7 3Pt, 5-8 FT), six rebounds, two assists and three steals over 34 minutes.
ANALYSIS
Oubre nearly knocked down half of his shots (47.6 percent) and tied his top mark on the season with three steals. He's scored 20-plus points in three of his last four matchups and continues to add value across the board for fantasy managers.

Oubre produced 23 points (10-20 FG, 1-7 3Pt, 2-2 FT), seven rebounds, one block and one steal over 29 minutes during Sunday's 106-102 loss to the Wizards.
ANALYSIS
Oubre had a decent night from the field and also contributed on the glass by securing seven rebounds, six on the defensive end. He also recorded his first block since Nov. 12 against Miami. Oubre is averaging 19.4 points, 5.3 rebounds, 1.1 assists and 1.6 steals over 18 contests this season.
Nov 19, 2022
Gets hot from three
Oubre chipped in 34 points (12-21 FG, 5-9 3Pt, 5-5 FT), three rebounds and three steals across 39 minutes before fouling out of Friday's 132-122 double-overtime loss to the Cavaliers.
ANALYSIS
Oubre posted his best scoring performance of the 2022-23 season with the help of a strong night from beyond the arc. He also showed off his quick hands on the defensive end and has now racked up two or more steals in three straight games. The Kansas product is averaging 23.2 points, 7.2 rebounds, 1.0 assist and 2.6 steals in his last five matchups.
Nov 17, 2022
Grabs season-high 13 rebounds
Oubre ended Wednesday's 125-113 loss to the Pacers with 17 points (8-21 FG, 1-7 3Pt), 13 rebounds, two assists and two steals over 36 minutes.
ANALYSIS
Oubre got off eight shots in the first quarter, knocking down three of them for six points while adding four rebounds. He finished the first half with eight boards, which already matched his second-highest rebound total of the season, to go along with 13 points on 6-of-13 shooting from the field. The Hornets forward shot poorly in the second half, making just two of his eight field goal attempts for four points, though he did chip in another five rebounds to give him a game and season-high 13 on the night. It was just Oubre's second double-double of the season while he's also recorded eight steals over his last two games.
Nov 15, 2022
Thrives defensively in win
Oubre notched 16 points (5-18 FG, 0-6 3Pt, 6-8 FT), five rebounds and six steals in 34 minutes during Monday's 112-105 win over the Magic.
ANALYSIS
Oubre was extremely active on the defensive end and his six steals represented a season-high mark for him, but he also continued a fine string of offensive performances even if his shooting line doesn't indicate that. Despite missing all six of his long-range attempts and finishing with more shots than total points, Oubre has now scored 15-plus points in 10 games in a row and plays a vital role on offense for the Hornets as a secondary scorer. He's averaging 19.4 points per game during that 10-game stretch.
Nov 13, 2022
Records 20 points, eight boards
Oubre provided 20 points (8-16 FG, 2-5 3Pt, 2-3 FT), eight rebounds, one assist and one block over 34 minutes during Saturday's 132-115 loss to the Heat.
ANALYSIS
Oubre enjoyed his second straight strong shooting performance following a four-game stretch during which he shot just 35.4 percent from the field. The veteran registered his fifth performance of 20-plus points Saturday, with three of those efforts coming over his past four games. Oubre has also been picking things up as a rebounder of late, grabbing at least seven boards in three consecutive contests following a three-game stretch during which he grabbed exactly one rebound in each game.
Nov 10, 2022
Lights out from deep
Oubre chipped in 29 points (11-20 FG, 7-13 3Pt), seven rebounds, two assists, one block and two steals across 39 minutes during Thursday's 117-112 overtime loss to the Heat.
ANALYSIS
Oubre scored 21 of his 29 points from beyond the arc in this one, setting a new top mark for made threes in a game this year. His previous best was five made triples Nov. 2 against the Bulls. It's also worth noting Oubre's recent uptick in rebounding production, as he's notched 15 total boards over his last two matchups after recording eight total rebounds through his first four games of November.
Nov 10, 2022
Poor shooting in loss
Oubre scored 16 points (5-19 FG, 1-11 3Pt, 5-7 FT) with eight rebounds, three assists and a steal in 36 minutes during Charlotte's 105-95 loss to Portland.
ANALYSIS
Oubre got off nine shots in the first quarter, knocking down four of them for nine points before struggling mightily from the field for the rest of the game. After going just 1-of-5 for two points in the second quarter, Oubre failed to hit any of his five shots in the second half, though he did make five of six free-throw attempts. The Hornets forward was 1-of-11 from three in the contest and is now just 2-of-18 from behind the arc over his last two games.
Nov 7, 2022
Pops for 20 in loss
Oubre produced 20 points (8-20 FG, 1-7 3Pt, 3-3 FT) and one rebound across 29 minutes during Monday's 108-100 loss to Washington.
ANALYSIS
Facing the team that drafted him 15th overall in the 2015 draft, Oubre scored at least 20 points for the third time in 11 games this season. The 26-year-old is giving the Hornets solid production, averaging 17.6 points, 4.0 boards, 2,5 threes and 1.2 steals so far.
Nov 6, 2022
Shoots poorly in loss
Oubre closed with 18 points (5-14 FG, 4-11 3Pt, 4-7 FT) and one rebound over 31 minutes during Saturday's 98-94 loss to Brooklyn.
ANALYSIS
Oubre had a dreadful night shooting the ball outside of the second quarter when he went 3-of-3 from the field. He knocked down just one of six shots in the second half, though he did connect on four threes in the game, just the third time he's reached that mark this season. Oubre did little else outside of his 18 points, recording just one rebound for the second game in a row.
Nov 3, 2022
Game-high 24 points
Oubre recorded 24 points (9-17 FG, 5-11 3Pt, 1-2 FT), five rebounds, one assist, one block and two steals across 30 minutes during Wednesday's 106-88 loss to the Bulls.
ANALYSIS
Oubre had it going from the field all night with the exception of the fourth quarter in which he shot just 1-of-5 with two points. The Hornets forward scored the team's first points of the game off an assist from Dennis Smith and finished the first half with 13 points on 5-of-8 shooting. Oubre then opened the third quarter with three consecutive three-point buckets before finishing with a game-high in both points and three-pointers made with five. It was just his second game of the season with 20 or more points, though he has scored in double figures in every game so far.
Oct 30, 2022
Scores inefficient 18 points in win
Oubre amassed 18 points (7-18 FG, 3-7 3Pt, 1-2 FT), five rebounds, five assists and one block over 38 minutes during Saturday's 120-113 overtime win over the Warriors.
ANALYSIS
Oubre scored in double-digits for the sixth straight game, cashing in on what has been a nice path to minutes to begin the season. Unfortunately, he has now shot under 40 percent in three consecutive outings, significantly impacting his overall appeal. He does remain a must-roster player in 12-team leagues but as soon as the Hornets start getting their guys back on the floor, he could see his playing time take a bit of a hit.
Oct 23, 2022
Double-double in win
Oubre ended with 24 points (9-20 FG, 3-6 3Pt, 3-3 FT), 10 rebounds and one steal across 32 minutes during Sunday's 126-109 victory over Atlanta.
ANALYSIS
Oubre could not buy a bucket over the first quarter and a half Sunday, missing his first seven attempts. He turned things around quickly and made eight of his next nine tries as he eclipsed 20 points for the first time all year. The 26-year-old has gotten off to a nice start this year and is averaging 17.3 points and 6.0 rebounds while making 46.5 percent of his field-goal attempts and 40 percent of his tries from beyond the arc.
Oct 22, 2022
Turns in average showing
Oubre contributed 15 points (6-13 FG, 2-6 3Pt, 1-2 FT), four rebounds and two steals across 30 minutes during Friday's 124-112 loss to the Pelicans.
ANALYSIS
Oubre knocked down a pair of triples and also showed up defensively, nabbing a pair of steals. He's totaled five steals over his first two games of the new season and looks to pick up right where he left off a season ago, averaging 1.0 steal over 76 games.
Oct 19, 2022
Starting in opener
Oubre will start Wednesday's season opener against the Spurs, Rob Longo, the Hornets Radio Network manager reports.
ANALYSIS
With LaMelo Ball (ankle) sidelined and Terry Rozier starting at point guard, Oubre will get the nod at shooting guard. With Miles Bridges out of the picture, Oubre projects to have both short and long-term fantasy value. In 13 starts last season, he averaged 16.4 points, 5.1 rebounds, 1.6 assists and 1.3 steals in 34.4 minutes.
Oct 12, 2022
Set to start Wednesday
Oubre will start in Wednesday's preseason game versus Philadelphia.
ANALYSIS
Oubre (calf) will have a minutes restriction Wednesday, but will get the start. With Oubre playing tonight, it is a very good sign that he will be good to go for the team's regular-season opener against the Spurs.
Oct 12, 2022
Will 'try to play' Wednesday
Oubre (calf) will "try to play some" with a minutes restriction for Wednesday's preseason game against the 76ers, Sam Perley of the Hornets' official site reports.
ANALYSIS
Charlotte will let Oubre test his ankle in the final exhibition before Wednesday's regular-season opener against the Spurs. He's taken on plenty of usage in preseason, averaging 23.2 points, 8.1 rebounds and 2.5 assists per 36 minutes in his three appearances. He figures to benefit from the absence of LaMelo Ball (ankle) to begin the year.
Oct 12, 2022
Upgraded to questionable
Oubre (calf) has been upgraded from doubtful to questionable for Wednesday's preseason finale against the 76ers.
ANALYSIS
Oubre didn't play in Monday's preseason game due to a calf issue and was initially listed as doubtful for Wednesday. However, it appears he may get some run in during the Hornets' final exhibition before the regular season, which starts Oct. 19 against the Spurs.
Oct 11, 2022
Unlikely for preseason finale
Oubre (calf) is listed as doubtful for Wednesday's preseason finale versus the 76ers.
ANALYSIS
Oubre was one of multiple Hornets ruled out for Monday's preseason game, and it appears he will likely skip the preseason finale too. He's reportedly dealing with a strained calf, so it will be worth monitoring his status as the regular season approaches Oct. 19 versus the Spurs.
Oct 10, 2022
Ruled out
Oubre (calf) Evan Dammarell of SBNation.com in Monday's preseason game against the Wizards.
ANALYSIS
As expected, Oubre, who was listed as doubtful, won't play in the Hornets' final preseason game. The severity of the injury remains unclear, but he has just over a week to clear the issue before the Hornets open the regular season against the Spurs on Oct. 19.
Oct 10, 2022
Dealing with calf strain
Oubre is doubtful for Monday's preseason game against the Wizards due to a left calf strain.
ANALYSIS
The extent and severity of Oubre's calf issue remains unclear, but after Monday's game, he'll only have one more opportunity to play in the preseason before the Hornets open the regular season against the Spurs on Oct. 19. While Oubre is unlikely to play, Charlotte is expected to have Gordon Hayward (knee) available for the first time during the preseason.
Oct 3, 2022
Scores team-high 17 points
Oubre recorded 17 points (6-11 FG, 2-6 3Pt, 3-3 FT), two rebounds and three steals across 21 minutes in Sunday's 134-93 loss to the Celtics.
ANALYSIS
Oubre got the start with Gordon Hayward (knee) sidelined, and while it's hard to read too much into one preseason game, he played a prominent role on offense and led the team in scoring despite the fact Charlotte lost by an expressive 41-point margin. A proven scorer regardless of his role, Oubre might open up the season as the starting small forward if Hayward can't recover in time for opening night, but even in a worst-case scenario, he will operate as Charlotte's sixth man and main scoring threat off the bench.
Oct 3, 2022
Scores team-high 17 points
Oubre recorded 17 points (6-11 FG, 2-6 3Pt, 3-3 FT), two rebounds and three steals across 21 minutes in Sunday's 134-93 loss to the Celtics.
ANALYSIS
Oubre got the start with Gordon Hayward (knee) sidelined, and while it's hard to read too much into one preseason game, he played a prominent role on offense and led the team in scoring despite the fact Charlotte lost by 41 points. A proven scorer, Oubre might open up the season as the starting small forward if Hayward can't recover in time for opening night. Still, even in a worst-case scenario, he will operate as Charlotte's sixth man and main scoring threat off the bench.
Apr 8, 2022
Leads bench in scoring
Oubre notched 16 points (5-9 FG, 2-5 3Pt, 4-6 FT), six rebounds and one assist across 24 minutes during Thursday's 128-101 victory over the Magic.
ANALYSIS
Oubre cooked an underwhelming second unit for the tanking Magic, finishing with a plus-41 in the box score. At one point, Oubre was a (distant) second to Tyler Herro in a race for the Six Man of the Year Award, but his production has fallen off considerably down the stretch. He's averaged 10.7 points, 3.4 rebounds and 0.8 assists in 17 games since the beginning of March. Oubre will look to carry Thursday's momentum into Friday's contest against the Bulls.
Mar 28, 2022
Poor production continues in loss
Oubre had two points (1-6 FG, 0-2 3Pt), four rebounds and one steal across 17 minutes during Sunday's 119-110 victory over the Nets.
ANALYSIS
Oubre bottomed out in the win, amassing a mere two points as his role continues to dwindle. He has now scored few than seven points in five of his past six games, logging more than 20 minutes just once in that span. It certainly has been a rapid decline for Oubre and at this point, he can be safely dropped in all competitive formats.
Mar 19, 2022
Strong showing off bench
Oubre closed with 17 points (6-17 FG, 3-9 3Pt, 2-2 FT), six rebounds and one assist in 28 minutes off the bench during Saturday's 129-108 win over Dallas.
ANALYSIS
He led the Hornets' second unit on scoring during the rout, and was one of five Charlotte players to score at least 17 points with at least three made three-pointers. Oubre has seen his workload decrease in recent games, in part due to his defensive limitations, but over his last 12 contests he's still averaging 14.1 points, 3.8 boards, 2.6 threes and 1.2 assists.
Mar 10, 2022
Quiet in lessened role
Oubre produced nine points (3-8 FG, 2-5 3Pt, 1-2 FT), three rebounds and one steal in 16 minutes during Wednesday's 115-101 loss to the Celtics.
ANALYSIS
Oubre picked up three fouls across his limited playing time, but he was still abnormally quiet. Wednesday marked the fourth consecutive contest in which his playing time has decreased. Oubre logged a team-worst minus-24 and was hapless in his defense on Jayson Tatum (44 points, 16-24 FG). Oubre will look to rebound Friday in a high-octane battle against the Pelicans.
Mar 2, 2022
Leads bench with 19 points
Oubre accumulated 19 points (7-15 FG, 5-11 3Pt), four rebounds, five assists and one block over 27 minutes during Wednesday's 119-98 win over the Cavaliers.
ANALYSIS
Oubre continued his fine offensive play off the bench recently by scoring in double figures for a sixth straight time. During that span dating back to Feb. 12, the Kansas product has drained a total of 20 threes and is averaging 16.7 points per matchup.
Mar 1, 2022
Scores 17 points off the bench
Oubre finished Monday's 130-106 loss to Milwaukee with 17 points (6-14 FG, 3-8 3Pt, 2-7 FT), seven rebounds and four assists in 31 minutes.
ANALYSIS
Oubre saw a noticeable boost after recording only 24 minutes of court time in Sunday's loss to Detroit. The veteran has proven to be a valuable sixth man for the Hornets and has been instrumental in filling in the gap left by Gordon Hayward.
Feb 26, 2022
Efficient performance off bench
Oubre finished with 23 points (8-14 FG, 5-10 3Pt, 2-2 FT), four rebounds, one assist, one block and two steals in 32 minutes during Friday's 125-93 win over the Raptors.
ANALYSIS
Oubre was efficient from the field en route to his 17th game with at least 20 points. With Gordon Hayward (ankle) sidelined indefinitely, Oubre and P.J. Washington, who have both spent time in the starting lineup during Hayward's absence, are both expected to have large roles for the Hornets during the stretch run.
Feb 15, 2022
Coming off bench
Oubre will come off the bench Tuesday against the Timberwolves.
ANALYSIS
The Hornets will opt to go big, starting Miles Bridges, P.J. Washington and Mason Plumlee. Oubre still figures to see plenty of run as a sixth man. Over the past eight games, he's averaged 17.4 points, 5.3 rebounds, 1.4 assists and 1.1 steals in 31.4 minutes.
Feb 10, 2022
Mixed bag in start
Oubre produced 19 points (8-19 FG, 3-9 3Pt, 0-1 FT), four rebounds and one block across 36 minutes during Wednesday's 121-109 loss to the Bulls.
ANALYSIS
Oubre started for Gordon Hayward (shoulder) Wednesday, the latter of which will be out indefinitely with sprained ligaments in his shoulder. Oubre may shortly be re-located to his sixth-man role, but should be rostered in standard leagues moving forward. In 2019-20 with the Suns, Oubre averaged 18.7 points, 6.4 rebounds and two combined blocks/steals per game.
Feb 9, 2022
Joins starting lineup
Oubre will start Wednesday's game against the Bulls.
ANALYSIS
The 26-year-old will make his first start since Dec. 20 with Gordan Hayward (ankle) facing an indefinite absence. Oubre has averaged 17.5 points, 5.3 rebounds, 1.9 assists and 1.6 steals in 36.0 minutes across his 10 previous starts this season.
Feb 8, 2022
Scores 17 points off bench
Oubre produced 17 points (7-17 FG, 0-8 3Pt, 3-4 FT), six rebounds, two assists, one block and one steal across 38 minutes during Monday's 116-101 loss to the Raptors.
ANALYSIS
Cody Martin (Achilles) didn't suit up and Gordon Hayward played just six minutes before leaving Monday's contest early with an ankle sprain, which opened the door for Oubre to garner extended minutes. He continues to struggle shooting the ball from deep and is shooting just 16.2 perfect over his last four games, but he still scored in double figures for the third time during that stretch. If Martin and Hayward remain sidelined for Wednesday's contest against the Bulls, Oubre should be in line for another increased workload.
Feb 5, 2022
Scores 21 points off bench
Oubre accumulated 21 points (7-19 FG, 4-13 3Pt, 3-3 FT), nine rebounds, one assist, one block and one steal over 28 minutes during Friday's 102-101 loss to the Cavaliers.
ANALYSIS
Oubre, along with the entire Hornets roster, struggled shooting the ball in the first half, but they were able to get going in the second half and erased Cleveland's double-digit lead. Oubre finished with 21 points, notching his 16th 20-plus point outing of the season. He also grabbed nine boards, finishing one shy of his second double-double of the campaign. Since returning from a two-game absence due to a sprained ankle, Oubre is averaging 18.0 points per game, but he is shooting just 32.3 percent from the field.
Feb 3, 2022
All-around performance in return
Oubre racked up 15 points (3-12 FG, 1-7 3Pt, 8-8 FT), three rebounds, three blocks and four steals over 34 minutes during Wednesday's 113-107 loss to the Celtics.
ANALYSIS
Oubre returned from a two-game absence due to a left ankle sprain and stuffed the stat sheet. He struggled from the field but salvaged his scoring production by connecting on all eight of his free-throw attempts. The 6-foot-6 forward also made his presence felt defensively by recording season highs in blocks and steals. Oubre has operated as the Hornets' sixth man for the majority of the campaign and is averaging 16.6 points, 3.9 rebounds, 1.2 steals and 1.1 assists in 28.1 minutes per game.
Feb 2, 2022
Ready to go Wednesday
Oubre (ankle) is available for Wednesday's game at Boston, Bruno Passos of PoundingTheRock.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Oubre has sat out the past two games with a sprained left ankle and will retake the court after making his return to practice Monday. He's averaged 17.2 points, 4.2 rebounds and 1.6 assists in 26.2 minutes over the past five games, which was carried by a 39-point effort Jan. 26 at Indiana.
Feb 1, 2022
Says he'll play Wednesday
Oubre (ankle) said he'll be available for Wednesday's contest against the Celtics, Roderick Boone of the Charlotte Observer reports. He's officially listed as probable.
ANALYSIS
Oubre has missed two consecutive games due to a left ankle sprain, but he was able to practice Monday and Tuesday and appears to be trending in the right direction. If he is indeed back in the lineup Wednesday, he isn't expected to be limited. He told Boone, "if I'm on the court, I'm giving it 110 [percent]."
Jan 31, 2022
Participates in practice Monday
Coach James Borrego said Oubre (ankle) participated in practice Monday, but his status for Wednesday's game in Boston is still up in the air, Rod Boone of The Charlotte Observer reports.
ANALYSIS
Oubre has missed two consecutive games due to a left ankle sprain, but he appears to be trending in the right direction. The seventh-year forward has another chance to practice Tuesday, which should provide a better sense of what his official status for Wednesday will be.
Jan 30, 2022
Downgraded to out
Oubre (ankle) has been downgraded to out ahead ahead of Sunday's contest against the Clippers.
ANALYSIS
Oubre will miss a second consecutive game due to a left ankle sprain. Gordon Hayward (COVID-19 protocols) and Jalen McDaniels (ankle) are also out, so Cody Martin and P.J. Washington could see increased roles off the bench.
Jan 29, 2022
Questionable Sunday
Oubre (ankle) is questionable for Sunday's game against the Clippers.
ANALYSIS
Oubre was unavailable Friday against the Lakers but will have a chance to return to the court Sunday. If he remains out, Miles Bridges and Cody Martin should continue to see increased run.
Jan 28, 2022
Won't play Friday
Oubre (ankle) is out Friday against the Lakers.
ANALYSIS
Oubre will be forced to miss at least one game due to a left ankle sprain. Since Gordon Hayward (COVID-19 protocols) is also unavailable, Miles Bridges and Cody Martin should see additional run against the Lakers.
Jan 27, 2022
Questionable Friday
Oubre is questionable for Friday's game against the Lakers due to a left ankle sprain.
ANALYSIS
Oubre was dominant in Wednesday's blowout win over the Pacers with a season-high 39 points in addition to five rebounds, three assists and two steals in 35 minutes. However, he apparently sustained an ankle injury during the victory. If the 26-year-old is unavailable against the Lakers, Miles Bridges and Cody Martin should handle additional run.
Jan 27, 2022
Makes it rain, joins history
Oubre finished with 39 points (12-18 FG, 10-15 3Pt, 5-6 FT), five rebounds, three assists and two steals across 35 minutes during Wednesday's 158-126 victory over the Pacers.
ANALYSIS
Oubre joins JR Smith, Danilo Gallinari and Donyell Marshall as the only players in NBA history to record 10 threes off the bench in a game. The Pacers' couldn't defend the perimeter -- or any part of the court for that matter -- and allowed the Hornets' to achieve a league-wide scoring high sampling the past two seasons. Oubre has another plus-matchup on deck versus the Lakers on Friday.
Jan 23, 2022
Ejected after flagrant foul
Oubre was ejected from Sunday's game against Atlanta after being assessed a Flagrant 2 foul, Chris Kirschner of The Athletic reports.
ANALYSIS
Oubre fouled De'Andre Hunter on a dunk attempt in the fourth quarter Sunday and will be unavailable during the closing minutes. He totaled 12 points (5-13 FG, 1-9 3Pt, 1-2 FT) and five rebounds in 23 minutes prior to his departure, while Miles Bridges and Cody Martin could see additional run down the stretch.
Jan 19, 2022
Available Wednesday
Oubre (COVID-19 protocols) is available for Wednesday's contest against the Celtics, Adrian Wojnarowski of ESPN reports.
ANALYSIS
After four missed games due to protocols, Oubre will return. He's come off the bench across his past seven appearances, with averages of 18.0 points, 3.3 rebounds and 1.1 steals in 24.3 minutes.
Jan 18, 2022
Deemed questionable for Wednesday
The Hornets list Oubre (COVID-19 protocols) as questionable for Wednesday's game against the Celtics.
ANALYSIS
Oubre has been out for the Hornets' past four games, but he appears to be on the cusp of exiting the NBA's COVID-19 health and safety protocols. Prior to being sidelined, Oubre had averaged 18.0 points in 24.3 minutes per game over his last seven appearances, but he could see his playing time and usage on the second unit trend down now that the Hornets are back at full strength.
Jan 16, 2022
Not ready to play Monday
Oubre (COVID-19 health and safety protocols) remains out for Monday's game against the Knicks.
ANALYSIS
Even with the NBA recently shortening the timeline for players to exit the protocols after testing positive, Oubre remains out seven days following his entry into the protocols. Oubre's absence should continue to open up a few extra minutes off the bench for Cody Martin and Jalen McDaniels.
Jan 10, 2022
Enters health and safety protocols
Oubre was placed in the league's health and safety protocols Monday.
ANALYSIS
It's not yet clear whether Oubre has tested positive for the virus, but he'll be forced to isolate from the team. Miles Bridges, Cody Martin and Jalen McDaniels could see increased run while the 26-year-old is sidelined.
Jan 5, 2022
Explodes for 32 points off bench
Oubre registered 32 points (10-16 FG, 9-14 3Pt, 3-3 FT), six rebounds and one block over 24 minutes during Wednesday's 140-111 victory over Detroit.
ANALYSIS
Oubre scored just seven points during Monday's loss against the Wizards, but he bounced back in a big way Wednesday. The 6-foot-6 forward was lights out from distance, connecting on a season-high nine three-pointers en route to 32 points, which marked his highest scoring output since dropping 35 points during a Dec. 6 win over the Sixers. Two of Oubre's three 30-plus point outings this season have come off the bench, and he should remain a solid fantasy asset as long as he maintains his current reserve role.
Jan 3, 2022
Strong game off bench
Oubre notched 15 points (6-10 FG, 3-7 3Pt), three rebounds and one block over 21 minutes off the bench during Sunday's 133-99 loss to the Suns.
ANALYSIS
There's a decent argument to say Oubre was the Hornets' best player in what was a one-sided loss, especially considering he played off the bench once again. The veteran forward has surpassed the 15-point mark in three of his last four contests and should remain a decent fantasy asset even if he continues to play off the bench on a regular basis.
Dec 24, 2021
Scores 23 off bench
Oubre contributed 23 points (7-15 FG, 5-11 3Pt, 4-4 FT), four rebounds, one assist, one block and four steals in 32 minutes during Thursday's 115-107 victory over the Nuggets.
ANALYSIS
Oubre scored just five points as a starter against the Jazz on Dec. 20, but he returned to a bench role and thrived once again in this one. The veteran forward has scored in double digits in four of his last five games off the bench and continues to thrive offensively for Charlotte. He is averaging 16.5 points per game this season while moving between the starting five and the bench.
Dec 20, 2021
Running with starting five
Oubre is starting Monday's game against Utah, Andy Larsen of The Salt Lake Tribune reports.
ANALYSIS
Oubre draws the start at small forward with Gordon Hayward (back) listed out for Monday's matchup. This marks Oubre's first start since Dec. 10 against Sacramento, finishing with 22 points, six rebounds, five dimes, two steals and two blocks in 41 minutes.
Dec 14, 2021
Puts up 20 points in loss
Oubre recorded 20 points (7-15 FG, 4-9 3Pt, 2-5 FT), three rebounds, four assists and one steal in 36 minutes during Monday's 120-96 loss to the Mavericks.
ANALYSIS
The return of Terry Rozier and Cody Martin resulted in a move back to the bench for Oubre. Although he logged 36 minutes in the loss, those numbers are likely to decrease as more players return from the COVID19 list.
Dec 13, 2021
Coming off bench
Oubre isn't starting Monday's game against Dallas, Rod Boone of The Charlotte Observer reports.
ANALYSIS
Oubre had started each of his team's last four contests and looked good doing it, averaging 26.8 points, 6.0 rebounds, 3.3 assists and 2.3 steals over that stretch. However, he'll switch back to a bench role Monday with Cody Martin drawing the start at shooting guard.
Dec 11, 2021
Remains productive Friday
Oubre supplied 22 points (9-17 FG, 4-10 3Pt), six rebounds, five assists, two blocks and two steals in 41 minutes during Friday's 124-123 win over the Kings.
ANALYSIS
Oubre has taken on a starting role for the Hornets in each of the last four games amid the team's COVID-19 outbreak, and he's scored at least 22 points in each of those appearances. The 26-year-old has had well-rounded production across that span, averaging 26.8 points, 6.0 rebounds and 3.3 assists in 41.0 minutes per game. He should remain heavily involved for the Hornets while the team is shorthanded.
Dec 8, 2021
Records double-double in loss
Oubre totaled 22 points (8-22 FG, 3-12 3Pt, 3-4 FT), 10 rebounds, three assists and two steals in 41 minutes during Wednesday's 110-106 loss to Philadelphia.
ANALYSIS
Oubre continued his dominance by scoring 20-plus points for the fourth consecutive game and notching his first double-double of the season. Over the 25-year-old's eight game hot streak, he is now averaging 24.9 points compared to 16.5 points on the season. Oubre will likely continue seeing extended opportunities as both LaMelo Ball and Terry Rozier will remain out for at least a couple more games due to health and safety protocols.
Dec 6, 2021
Pours in 35 points
Oubre closed with 35 points (13-24 FG, 6-13 3Pt, 3-4 FT), five rebounds, three assists, one block and four steals across 43 minutes during Monday's 127-124 OT loss to the 76ers.
ANALYSIS
Oubre led his squad in scoring on the night, finishing with 30-plus points for just the second time this season (26 games). He was averaging just under 16 points per contest heading into Monday's clash, but he's been on an offensive tear of late, putting up 25.3 points over his last seven matchups.
Dec 5, 2021
Starting Sunday
Oubre will start Sunday's game against Atlanta, Rod Boone of the Charlotte Observer reports.
ANALYSIS
With several regulars in COVID-19 protocols, Oubre will move into the lineup at one guard spot alongside Ish Smith. Oubre has been playing well off the bench of late (22.8 PPG, 3.2 RPG, 3.8 3PM/G), so he makes for a solid streaming option for the week ahead, as Charlotte will likely be without LaMelo Ball and Terry Rozier for all three of its games.
Dec 2, 2021
Pours in 25 points
Oubre registered 25 points (9-14 FG, 5-9 3Pt, 2-3 FT), two rebounds, one assist and one steal in 31 minutes during Wednesday's 127-125 loss to the Bucks.
ANALYSIS
Oubre caught fire in the contest and ended up playing 31 minutes -- more than all other Milwaukee reserves combined. The veteran guard finished with his fourth effort of 20-plus points in his past five games in what has easily been his strongest stretch of the campaign. Oubre has knocked down multiple three-pointers in five straight contests.
Nov 28, 2021
Multi-faceted performance in loss
Oubre amassed 23 points (8-19 FG, 2-10 3Pt, 5-6 FT), four rebounds, two blocks and three steals in 36 minutes during Saturday's 146-143 OT loss to the Rockets.
ANALYSIS
Oubre had arguably his best game of the season, producing on both ends of the court. Now established as the Hornets' sixth-man, Oubre has seen his production ebb and flow across the course of the season. While he is not a must-roster player, his upside begs for attention, and so managers could consider grabbing him as a mainstay, as long as inconsistent shooting is not an issue.
Nov 25, 2021
Contributes 21 points, six boards
Oubre notched 21 points (7-17 FG, 3-8 3Pt, 4-5 FT) and six rebounds across 34 minutes during Wednesday's 106-99 win over the Magic.
ANALYSIS
Oubre outscored the rest of Charlotte's bench combined as he eclipsed the 20-point part for the first time since scoring 37 on Nov. 10. The veteran wing doesn't offer much fantasy appeal beyond points, rebounds and three-pointers, but he brings plenty of value in those categories as a significant contributor off the bench for the Hornets.
Nov 11, 2021
Catches fire off bench
Oubre posted 37 points (13-17 FG, 7-9 3Pt, 4-4 FT), five rebounds, one assist and two steals over 31 minutes during Wednesday's 118-108 win over the Grizzlies.
ANALYSIS
Oubre came out of nowhere to lead the Hornets in scoring in this one, as he had scored 25 or more points just twice over his previous 12 contests. While the fact that he keeps coming off the bench suggests his upside will be somewhat limited, Oubre can deliver these performances from time to time. His scoring ability and all-around versatility are enough to keep him rostered across all formats even if he lacks consistency on a game-to-game basis.
Nov 8, 2021
Goes for 16 off bench
Oubre finished Sunday's loss to the Clippers with 16 points (7-14 FG, 1-6 3Pt, 1-3 FT), four rebounds, two assists, one steal and one block.
ANALYSIS
Coming off of a string of low-impact performances, Oubre broke out of his mini-slump Sunday, providing a strong all-around line en route to his fifth game this season with at least 15 points. With Terry Rozier healthy, Oubre's role has declined a bit over the last few games, but the absence of P.J. Washington (elbow) on Sunday enabled him to see 28 minutes. Washington will miss at least one more game, so Oubre could be a viable streamer on a four-game week for the Hornets.
Oct 31, 2021
Erupts for 26-7-5 off bench
Oubre finished Sunday's win over Portland with 26 points (8-14 FG, 6-11 3Pt, 4-8 FT), seven rebounds, five assists and two steals.
ANALYSIS
Despite returning to the bench with Terry Rozier back in the lineup, Oubre went off for easily his best overall showing of the young season. In 32 minutes, Oubre drilled six three-pointers and worked his way to the line eight times. Game-to-game, Oubre's production tends to vary widely, but even with Rozier healthy it looks like he'll hang on to a significant role in coach James Borrego's rotation.
Oct 25, 2021
Narrowly missed double-double
Oubre collected 19 points (6-16 FG, 5-10 3PT, 2-4 FT), nine rebounds and two assists in 43 minutes Monday against Boston.
ANALYSIS
Oubre was impressive from downtown in this one, draining a season-high five triples in the overtime loss. He's tallied double-digit scoring performances in three of his first four games of the 2021 season, and he's also secured nine rebounds in two straight contests. Oubre could continue to see opportunities with the starting five if Terry Rozier (ankle) misses additional time.
Oct 24, 2021
Flirts with double-double in win
Oubre contributed nine points (4-13 FG, 1-5 3Pt), nine rebounds, an assist and a steal across 23 minutes in Sunday's 111-95 win over the Nets.
ANALYSIS
Oubre drew the start with Terry Rozier (ankle) sidelined and put up a solid line despite a tepid shooting night. The journeyman joins the Hornets after a year with the Warriors, where injury limited him to 55 games. Now with his fourth team in four years, his role with Hornets will reside with the second unit and starts like Sunday's will be few and far between. Fortunately for Oubre, the Hornets are not a deep team, making their rotation very tight. Charlotte's lack of depth should allow for more opportunities for the former Kansas Jayhawk.
Oct 24, 2021
Starting Sunday
Oubre is in the starting lineup for Sunday's game against the Nets, Rod Boone of The Charlotte Observer reports.
ANALYSIS
Oubre will enter the starting lineup Sunday with Terry Rozier sidelined by a sprained ankle injury he suffered Friday against Cleveland. Oubre had a massive impact off the bench last time out with 25 points (9-13 FG, 4-7 3Pt, 3-3 FT), three rebounds, an assist and a steal in 27 minutes. He's taken 30 shots through the team's first two games and should be plenty busy in a larger role without Rozier available.
Oct 22, 2021
Dominant off bench
Oubre recorded 25 points (9-13 FG, 4-7 3Pt, 3-3 FT), three rebounds, one assist and one steal in 27 minutes in Friday's 123-112 win over Cleveland.
ANALYSIS
Oubre reverted to a bench role Friday after he started Wednesday's opener. However, he still took on a considerable role since Terry Rozier exited the contest with an ankle injury. Oubre has averaged 19.5 points per game across his first two appearances of the season and will likely return to a starting role if Rozier misses additional time.
Oct 22, 2021
Moving to bench
Oubre will come off the bench Friday against the Cavaliers.
ANALYSIS
Oubre got the Opening Night start at shooting guard, but with Terry Rozier (ankle) back from injury Friday, the ex-Warrior will shift to the bench. In 35 minutes Wednesday, Oubre finished with 14 points (5-17 FG, 2-9 3Pt, 2-2 FT) on 17 shots while adding three rebounds and an assist.
Oct 20, 2021
Starting Wednesday
Oubre is starting the Hornets' regular-season opener against the Pacers on Wednesday.
ANALYSIS
With Terry Rozier (ankle) out for the team's first game of the season, Oubre will move into the starting lineup at shooting guard over Cody Martin. The veteran wing was acquired by the Hornets in the offseason and will get a chance to provide for his new team right away. Oubre averaged 15.4 points, 6.0 rebounds and 1.3 assists in 30.7 minutes per game last year with the Warriors. Once Rozier is back, Oubre will likely serve as Charlotte's sixth or seventh man.
Oct 15, 2021
Back at practice Friday
Oubre (ankle) returned to practice Friday, Marc J. Spears of ESPN.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Oubre hurt his ankle during Charlotte's preseason opener and has been sidelined since. His return to practice is a positive sign, and barring a setback, he will likely be available for Wednesday's regular season opener against the Pacers.
Oct 13, 2021
Downgraded to out
Oubre (ankle) has been ruled out for Wednesday's preseason game against the Mavericks.
ANALYSIS
Oubre has been unavailable since he hurt his ankle in Charlotte's preseason opener. Although he'll be held out in Wednesday's preseason finale, it appears as though he has a chance to return for the first game of the regular season against Indiana on Oct. 20.
Oct 12, 2021
Questionable for Wednesday's game
Oubre (ankle) is questionable for Wednesday's preseason contest against the Mavericks.
ANALYSIS
Oubre injured his ankle in the Hornets' preseason opener and has been sidelined since. The 6-foot-7 wing is in his first year with Charlotte, so the preseason finale would be a great opportunity to gel with his new team. Oubre appears very close to returning, so even if he isn't available Wednesday, he should be ready for the regular season opener against the Pacers on Oct. 20.
Oct 10, 2021
Close to returning
Hornets head coach James Borrego mentioned after Sunday's practice that Oubre (ankle) is close to returning, Sam Perley of the Hornets' official site reports.
ANALYSIS
Oubre suffered the injury in a preseason game against the Thunder on Oct. 4 but sounds like he could potentially return sometime this week. The 6-7 forward is doubtful for Monday's game against the Heat but could possibly return Wednesday versus Dallas. Oubre is in his first year with the Hornets and would hope to get some more opportunities to gel with his new teammates on the court before they start the regular season.
Oct 7, 2021
Downgraded to out
Oubre (ankle) has been ruled out for Thursday's preseason game against Memphis, Marc J. Spears of ESPN.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Oubre sustained an ankle injury in Monday's preseason opener that forced him to miss Tuesday's practice. James Bouknight and Miles Bridges are in line for increased roles against the Grizzlies.
Oct 6, 2021
Doubtful for Thursday's game
Oubre (ankle) is doubtful for Thursday's preseason contest against the Grizzlies.
ANALYSIS
Oubre had to leave Monday's preseason opener with the injury and didn't practice Tuesday. It's unclear how severe the injury is, but he will likely sit out Thursday and look to return to action Monday against the Heat.
Oct 5, 2021
Sits out Tuesday's practice
Oubre (leg) didn't practice Tuesday, Sam Perley of the Hornets' official site reports.
ANALYSIS
Oubre had to leave Monday's preseason opener after suffering a right leg strain. He's considered day-to-day, but Perley reports that the Hornets are being cautious with the injury. Oubre will likely be a game-time decision when Charlotte resumes action Thursday.
Oct 4, 2021
Picks up leg injury
Oubre suffered a right leg strain during Monday's preseason game against Oklahoma City.
ANALYSIS
Oubre went down with the injury during the third quarter and was ruled out for the remainder of the contest. He'll be considered day-to-day until the team reveals more information on the extent of the injury.
Aug 6, 2021
Joining Hornets
Oubre agreed Thursday to a two-year, $26 million-plus deal with the Hornets, Shams Charania of The Athletic reports.
ANALYSIS
Charlotte will mark Oubre's third destination in three seasons, with the wing making stops in Golden State, Phoenix and Washington -- the team he began his career with. Oubre has started 105 of his past 111 games, averaging 17.1 points, 6.2 rebounds, 1.4 assists and 1.2 steals in 32.6 minutes. However, with the Hornets, it appears he may come off the bench in a sixth-man capacity. He'll be competing for minutes with Terry Rozier, Gordon Hayward, Miles Bridges and rookie James Bouknight. Much of how successful Oubre is in 2021-22 may depend on how often coach James Borrego deploys small-ball lineups. Oubre ranked 124th in fantasy production last season, and it seems likely that he'll be out of the top-100 again.
May 16, 2021
To re-evaluated in 7-to-10 days
Oubre (wrist) has not been cleared for on-court basketball activities and will be re-evaluated in 7-to-10 days, Wes Goldberg of The San Jose Mercury News reports.
ANALYSIS
It looks like Oubre will miss Golden State's play-in games due to a a left wrist injury that has kept him sidelined since April 29. Kent Bazemore and Jordan Poole should continue to see increased workloads while Oubre remains on the sidelines.
May 6, 2021
Out at least a week
Oubre (wrist) will be re-evaluated in one-to-two weeks, Shams Charania of The Athletic reports.
ANALYSIS
Oubre had already been ruled out of Thursday's game, and the Warriors have now confirmed that he's dealing with an injury that will carry a longer timetable. The athletic wing figures to miss three more games, at minimum, and it's very possible he could be sidelined through the end of the regular season, and perhaps into the play-in tournament, should that be where Golden State ends up.
May 6, 2021
Remains out Thursday
Oubre (wrist) will not play Thursday against the Thunder.
ANALYSIS
Oubre missed the entirety of the Warriors' four-game road trip, and he'll miss at least one more game as he battles discomfort in his left wrist. Expect veteran Kent Bazemore, who's averaged 7.5 points, 7.8 boards, 2.3 assists, 2.0 steals and 1.3 blocks over the last four games, to remain in the starting lineup in Oubre's place.
May 3, 2021
Out Monday, Tuesday vs. Pels
Oubre (wrist) will not play in the Warriors' next two games Monday and Tuesday against New Orleans, Drew Shiller of Warriors Outsiders reports.
ANALYSIS
Oubre had already been ruled out of Monday's game, but coach Steve Kerr informed the media that the wing won't be re-evaluated until the team returns to the Bay Area later in the week. At this stage, it's unclear just how much time Oubre might miss, but the best-case scenario is that he's back on the floor for Thursday's home matchup against Oklahoma City.
May 2, 2021
Officially out Monday
Oubre (wrist) has been ruled out for Monday's game against the Pelicans.
ANALYSIS
Oubre is undergoing evaluations to determine whether he can play through a torn ligament in his left wrist and a fracture on the palm, but he'll officially be unavailable Monday. Kent Bazemore and Jordan Poole could see increased run in his absence.
May 1, 2021
Could miss extended time
Oubre has been diagnosed with a torn ligament in his left wrist and a fracture on the palm, Shams Charania of The Athletic reports. Oubre will undergo further evaluations to determine if he can continue playing through the injury.
ANALYSIS
Oubre has been playing through the injury across the past five games, and he's averaged 17.0 points and 5.4 rebounds, so it clearly hasn't been affecting his performance. However, the medical staff may want to err on the side of caution and not risk Oubre damaging his wrist and hand further. If Oubre is forced to miss extended time -- and possibly the rest of the season -- more minutes would be available for Kent Bazemore, Jordan Poole, Mychal Mulder and Juan Toscano-Anderson.
May 1, 2021
Ruled out Saturday
Oubre (wrist) has been ruled out for Saturday's game against Houston, Jonathan Feigen of the Houston Chronicle reports.
ANALYSIS
Oubre will miss a second straight game due to a sore left wrist. Kent Bazemore will likely see increased run Saturday.
Apr 30, 2021
Questionable vs. Rockets
Oubre (wrist) is questionable for Saturday's contest against the Rockets, Anthony Slater of The Athletic reports.
ANALYSIS
Oubre sat out Thursday's game against the Wolves due to left wrist soreness, but he could return Saturday. He'll likely continue coming off the bench if he does. Over Oubre's past five appearances, he's averaged 17.0 points and 5.4 rebounds in 29.0 minutes.
Apr 29, 2021
Won't play Thursday
Oubre (wrist) will not play Thursday against Minnesota, Nick Friedell of ESPN.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Oubre will be sidelined for at least one game after he tweaked his wrist during Tuesday's loss to the Mavericks. Kent Bazemore will likely be looking at an increased workload in Thursday's game.
Apr 28, 2021
Expected to sit Thursday
Oubre is listed as doubtful for Thursday's game against Minnesota due to a sore left wrist.
ANALYSIS
Oubre may have tweaked his wrist during Tuesday's blowout loss to Dallas, in which he played just 23 minutes and posted 10 points, three rebounds and one steal. If he does, indeed, sit out, veteran Kent Bazemore would likely slide back into the starting five.
Apr 26, 2021
Drops 19 points in Sunday's win
Oubre totaled 19 points (8-17 FG, 1-7 3Pt, 2-2 FT) and seven rebounds in 31 minutes during Sunday's 117-113 victory over Sacramento.
ANALYSIS
Oubre continues to come off the bench for the Warriors and has certainly looked about as comfortable as he has all season long. While it appears to be a relegation, it could in fact work in favor of Oubre, who is more than capable of leading the second unit. As long as his playing time is significant, he should be able to maintain standard league value the rest of the way, no matter his exact role.
Apr 24, 2021
Big night off bench Friday
Oubre scored 23 points (9-16 FG, 3-7 3Pt, 2-5 FT) while adding six rebounds, three assists, three steals and two blocks in 33 minutes off the bench during Friday's win over the Nuggets.
ANALYSIS
While Mychal Mulder got the start in place of Kent Bazemore (COVID-19 protocols), it was Oubre who got a starter's workload off the wing. The 25-year-old was also basically a one-man second unit at both ends of the court, as the rest of the Warriors bench managed only 26 points and four combined steals plus blocks. Expect Oubre to continue anchoring the bench for Golden State, a role he seems to be adapting to quickly.
Apr 21, 2021
Bounces back with 24 points
Oubre tallied 24 points (8-17 FG, 2-4 3Pt, 6-6 FT), nine rebounds, two blocks and one assist in 36 minutes during Wednesday's loss against the Wizards.
ANALYSIS
The 25-year-old rebounded from Monday's nine-point effort to post his 12th 20-plus point scoring output of the season. Oubre was enjoying a productive April before missing five games due to a sprained right wrist, averaging 15.9 points, 6.8 rebounds, 2.4 three-pointers and 1.2 steals while shooting 46.2 percent from the field in five games. The sixth-year forward will look to build on Wednesday's impressive bounce-back performance on Friday at home against the Nuggets.
Apr 19, 2021
Will play Monday, come off bench
Oubre (wrist) will be available Monday but he will come off the bench, Wes Goldberg of The San Jose Mercury News reports.
ANALYSIS
Oubre missed the last five games, but he's available to make his return. The team will continue to start Kent Bazemore for this game, and it's unclear whether that could be a permanent change. Oubre may see a slight decrease from his season average of 32.8 minutes per game in the bench role.
Apr 18, 2021
Listed questionable for Monday
Oubre (wrist) is listed as questionable for Monday's game at Philadelphia.
ANALYSIS
Oubre has missed the last five games with a sprained left wrist, but he'll have a chance to return Monday as the Warriors enter a four-game Week 18. In his last five games before the injury, Oubre averaged 15.8 points, 6.8 rebounds, 1.4 assists and 1.2 steals in 32.8 minutes.
Apr 17, 2021
Out Saturday
Oubre (wrist) is out Saturday against the Celtics, Anthony Slater of The Athletic reports.
ANALYSIS
Oubre will miss a fifth straight game due to a sprained left wrist. His next chance to play is Monday against the 76ers.
Apr 16, 2021
Questionable Saturday
Oubre (wrist) is questionable for Saturday's game against the Celtics.
ANALYSIS
Oubre has missed the last four games due to a sprained left wrist, but he could return to action against Boston. If he's unable to play once again Saturday, Kent Bazemore could start for the Warriors once again.
Apr 15, 2021
Out vs. Cavs
Oubre (wrist) is out for Thursday's matchup against the Cavaliers.
ANALYSIS
Oubre will miss a fourth straight game as he continues to recover from a sprained left wrist. Kent Bazemore should start again.
Apr 14, 2021
Ruled out at OKC
Oubre (wrist) will not play in Wednesday's game against the Thunder.
ANALYSIS
A sore left wrist will cost Oubre a third straight game, and with the Warriors entering the first half of a back-to-back, it's very possible he'll remain out Thursday night at Cleveland. Kent Bazemore has started the last two games in Oubre's place.
Apr 13, 2021
Likely out Wednesday
Oubre (wrist) is doubtful for Wednesday's game at Oklahoma City.
ANALYSIS
The 25-year-old is dealing with a sprained left wrist and is expected to be sidelined for the third straight game Wednesday. Kent Bazemore could receive another start in Oubre's likely absence for the Warriors.
Apr 11, 2021
Listed out Monday
Oubre (wrist) will not play in Monday's game against the Nuggets.
ANALYSIS
Oubre picked up a sprained wrist against the Wizards on Friday, which kept him out of Saturday's win over the Rockets. He'll miss a second contest Monday, and with the Warriors yet to offer a timetable, it may be best to hold Oubre out of lineups in weekly fantasy leagues. Kent Bazemore started in Oubre's place against Houston.
Apr 10, 2021
MRI confirms sprained wrist
Oubre (wrist), who is out Saturday against the Rockets, underwent an MRI, with the results confirming a sprained wrist, Monte Poole of NBC Sports Bay Area reports.
ANALYSIS
It's not clear how much more time Oubre is expected to miss following Saturday's contest. Kent Bazemore got the start for that contest, but that might not be set in stone moving forward.
Apr 10, 2021
Won't play Saturday
Oubre will not play Saturday against the Rockets due to a sore left wrist.
ANALYSIS
Oubre landed hard on his left wrist after a dunk in Friday's loss to the Wizards and will miss his first game since March 4. As a result, Kent Bazemore, Damion Lee and Jordan Poole could see increased run at small forward for the Warriors. Oubre's next chance to return will come Monday against Denver.
Apr 10, 2021
Registers 23 points Friday
Oubre finished Friday's loss to Washington with 23 points (8-13 FG, 4-8 3Pt, 3-3 FT), six rebounds two assists and a steal across 37 minutes.
ANALYSIS
Oubre's point total was his highest since he scored 24 against Philadelphia on March 23. The sixth-year forward knocked down four three-pointers for his second straight game, and he has also corralled exactly six rebounds in each of those contests. Though his overall numbers are slightly down in comparison to 2020, Oubre's stat line of 15.3 points, 6.0 boards, 1.1 steals and 1.6 treys per contest still give him fantasy appeal in most formats.
Apr 7, 2021
Drops 19 in Tuesday's win
Oubre scored 19 points (6-14 FG, 4-8 3Pt, 3-4 FT) while adding six rebounds, two steals and an assist in 37 minutes during Tuesday's win over the Bucks.
ANALYSIS
He came up big in the clutch, draining a pair of free throws inside the final eight seconds to give the Warriors a one-point lead that they protected on the Bucks' final possession. Oubre has had an up-and-down first season in Golden State but his numbers have been creeping back up lately, and the 25-year-old is averaging 16.4 points, 7.4 boards, 1.8 threes, 1.5 assists and 1.0 steals over the last eight games.
Apr 4, 2021
Bounces back with 20 points
Oubre delivered 20 points (9-16 FG, 2-6 3Pt), 11 rebounds, three blocks, two assists and two steals across 37 minutes in Sunday's win over the Hawks.
ANALYSIS
Oubre was coming off two straight single-digit scoring appearances, but he bounced back in a big way here -- he reached the 20-point mark for the first time since March 23 and also posted his second double-double over his last four appearances. The two single-digit scoring outings might have been nothing more than a bump on the road for him, as he has scored at least 12 points in six of his last eight games.
Apr 2, 2021
Team-high seven boards
Oubre played only 18 minutes and registered nine points (3-11 FG, 2-4 3Pt, 1-1 FT), seven rebounds and one assist in Friday's blowout loss to the Raptors.
ANALYSIS
Though he only played in 18 minutes, Oubre led all Warriors with his seven boards. Outside of that, Friday was all negatives for Golden State including Oubre. He's now posted consecutive games shooting under 40 percent and scoring less than 10 points.
Mar 30, 2021
Puts up double-double
Oubre notched 18 points (8-19 FG, 0-3 3Pt, 2-2 FT), 11 rebounds and a steal across 36 minutes in Monday's win over the Bulls.
ANALYSIS
Oubre scored in double digits for the fifth game in a row and also recorded his second double-double in that span, so he's clearly trending in the right direction. During that five-game stretch, Oubre is averaging 17.4 points and 7.4 rebounds per game while shooting 43.4 percent from the field.
Mar 27, 2021
Chips in across box score
Oubre scored 14 points (5-13 FG, 1-5 3Pt, 3-7 FT) to go along with six rebounds, two assists, two steals and one block across 28 minutes in Friday's loss to the Hawks.
ANALYSIS
Oubre didn't shoot well in any facet of the game, particularly struggling from three-point range and the free-throw line. The poor shooting night ended a two-game stretch in which Oubre had knocked down multiple threes. On the other hand, he did find other ways to contribute positively by tallying multiple steals for the first time in his last five games.
Mar 26, 2021
Turns in 18 points in loss
Oubre posted 19 points (8-17 FG, 3-6 3Pt), four rebounds and two assists across 33 minutes in Thursday's 141-119 loss to the Kings.
ANALYSIS
Oubre remains in a Warrior uniform despite speculation that the forward would get shipped to another team. The squad is now reduced to two choices. They can sign Oubre to an extension or allow him to field offers in the offseason. Considering Oubre's see-saw production this season, it seems unlikely that they would opt to extend his one-year deal. so they effectively missed out on getting something for him Thursday. The Warriors will make their playoff push with Oubre in the starting lineup, and his upside potential will keep him on the fantasy radar despite a modicum of risk associated with his output.
Mar 24, 2021
Double-double in loss
Oubre scored 24 points (8-14 FG, 2-4 3Pt, 6-9 FT) to go along with 10 rebounds, three assists and one block in a 108-98 loss to the 76ers on Tuesday.
ANALYSIS
Oubre was very efficient scoring the basketball and secured a team-high 10 rebounds which led to his fourth double-double of the season. This was the forward's first game with at least 20 points since Feb. 26 as he has been inconsistent in terms of scoring this month. On the season, Oubre is averaging 15.1 points, 5.9 rebounds, 1.4 assists and 1.0 steals per game but with Stephen Curry (tailbone) expected to miss more time, Oubre will have to take on more of a scoring role.
Mar 20, 2021
Does little in win over Grizz
Oubre finished Friday's win over Memphis with four points (2-7 FG, 0-3 3Pt), four rebounds, one assist, one steal and two blocks.
ANALYSIS
Due to a foot injury, Oubre went from doubtful, to questionable, to in the starting five Friday, but he didn't look like himself, as he played just 29 minutes and never settled into a groove, offensively. In five games since the All-Star break, Oubre is averaging only 11.4 points and 4.6 rebounds across 31.0 minutes.
Mar 19, 2021
Good to go Friday
Oubre (foot) will be available for Friday's game against the Grizzlies, Nick Freidell of ESPN reports.
ANALYSIS
Oubre was initially listed as doubtful, then bumped up to questionable, and now he'll be available for Friday's game, though he's not in the starting lineup. As such, it's possible that he could have his minutes monitored as he deals with a lingering foot injury from Wednesday's win over Houston.
Mar 19, 2021
Available, starting Friday
Oubre (foot) is starting Friday against the Grizzlies, Kendra Andrews of NBC Sports Bay Area reports.
ANALYSIS
After initially being listed as doubtful, Oubre has been upgraded to available despite some foot soreness. Over his past 10 appearances, he has averaged 18.1 points, 5.6 rebounds, 1.1 assists and 1.1 steals in 33.6 minutes.
Mar 19, 2021
Upgraded to questionable
Oubre (foot) has been upgraded to questionable for Friday's game against the Grizzlies.
ANALYSIS
Initially listed as doubtful, Oubre is apparently feeling better than anticipated and has a better chance of playing Friday. That said, should he remain out, Mychal Mulder, Damion Lee and Juan Toscano-Anderson are candidates to see expanded roles.
Mar 18, 2021
Doubtful with foot injury
Oubre is doubtful for Friday's game against the Grizzlies due to a foot injury, Pete Pranica of Fox Sports Southeast reports.
ANALYSIS
Oubre was kicked in the foot during Wednesday's win over the Rockets. If Oubre sits as expected, it will be just his third absence of the season. Steph Curry (tailbone) is also doubtful for the contest. Mychal Mulder, Damion Lee and Juan Toscano-Anderson are candidates to see extra minutes.
Mar 17, 2021
Scores 19 in win
Oubre recorded 19 points (8-16 FG, 1-6 3Pt, 2-4 FT), four rebounds, one assist and one steal in 35 minutes during Wednesday's 108-94 win against the Rockets.
ANALYSIS
The 25-year-old has produced solid fantasy lines since returning from his two-game absence due to a wrist injury. Over the last four games, Oubre is averaging 13.2 points, 4.8 rebounds and 1.0 steals while shooting 45 percent from the field. Oubre should continue providing fantasy owners with consistent points, three-pointers, steals and rebounds while hovering around 30-35 minutes per game.
Mar 16, 2021
Commits five turnovers vs. Lakers
Oubre posted 12 points (5-9 FG, 1-4 3Pt, 1-3 FT), two rebounds, two steals and one assist in 28 minutes during Monday's game against the Lakers. He also committed five turnovers.
ANALYSIS
Had it not been for Oubre's five turnovers, Monday's performance would have been a solid one. Over his past seven games, Oubre has shot well from the field (51.7 percent), but he's having a difficult time converting from the charity stripe (66.7 percent) or from beyond the arc (24.1 percent). He's also handed out more turnovers per game (1.4) than assists (1.1). Still, on the season as a whole, Oubre is playing well enough to have 12-team relevance in fantasy.
Mar 10, 2021
Will play Thursday
Oubre (wrist) will play Thursday against the Clippers, Nick Friedell of ESPN.com reports.
ANALYSIS
The 25-year-olf missed the final two games of the season's first half with a wrist sprain, but he's ready to go coming out of the All-Star break. Oubre had a rough start to the season with his shot, but over his past 16 games he's averaging 19.9 points, 6.4 rebounds and 1.6 assists while shooting 50.6 percent from the field and 42.4 percent from deep.
Mar 4, 2021
Won't play Thursday
Oubre (wrist) will not play Thursday against Phoenix.
ANALYSIS
Oubre will be sidelined for his second game in a row in the team's last outing prior to the All-Star break. With Oubre and Stephen Curry (rest) on the sidelines for this one, Andrew Wiggins will likely be taking on more of a focal point role in Thursday's game.
Mar 4, 2021
Questionable Thursday
Oubre (wrist) is questionable for Thursday's game against the Suns.
ANALYSIS
Oubre missed Wednesday's game against the Trail Blazers due to the sprained left wrist, and it's possible he's sidelined again Thursday. With Steph Curry (rest) already ruled out, Oubre could see more usage if he plays. If Oubre is out as well, Andrew Wiggins could take on more playmaking responsibilities, while Kent Bazemore, Mychal Mulder and Juan Toscano-Anderson might see more minutes.
Mar 3, 2021
Out Wednesday
Oubre (wrist) has been ruled out for Wednesday's game against the Trail Blazers, Monte Poole of NBC Sports Bay Area reports.
ANALYSIS
Oubre is dealing with a sprained left wrist and will not play Wednesday against Portland. As a result, Kent Bazemore and Andrew Wiggins should see increased run at small forward for the Warriors.
Mar 3, 2021
Questionable Wednesday
Oubre is questionable for Wednesday's game against the Trail Blazers due to a left wrist sprain.
ANALYSIS
Oubre has topped 35 minutes in six of his last seven appearances, but he's now dealing with a wrist issue that puts his status for Wednesday's matchup into question. If he's unable to play, Kent Bazemore and Andrew Wiggins could see increased run for the Warriors.
Feb 28, 2021
Scores 14 in blowout loss
Oubre had 14 points (6-10 FG, 0-2 3Pt, 2-3 FT), five rebounds and an assist in Sunday's loss to the Lakers.
ANALYSIS
The Warriors fell behind early and never recovered, so Oubre was held under 30 minutes (26) for just the second time in his last 14 games. His final line was nothing to write home about, but Oubre was one of just three Warriors in double-figures on a night when they shot 8-of-34 from three as a team.
Feb 27, 2021
Ultra efficient for 27 points
Oubre posted 27 points (11-15 FG, 3-6 3Pt, 2-2 FT), six rebounds and three assists to help the Warriors to a 130-121 victory over Charlotte on Friday.
ANALYSIS
Oubre has struggled with his shot at times this season, but that wasn't the case Friday as the wingman found the net on all but four of his 15 field-goal attempts. The point total was Oubre's highest since his 40-point outburst Feb. 4, and he has now finished in double figures in 15 straight games. After a slow start to his first season with Golden State, Oubre has come on to push his season per-game averages to 15.5 points and 6.0 boards.
Feb 25, 2021
Solid outing in win
Oubre provided 17 points (7-15 FG, 1-4 3Pt, 2-2 FT) and five rebounds across 36 minutes in Wednesday's 111-107 win over the Pacers.
ANALYSIS
Oubre's line was shot-dependent, but it was an impressive night, shooting 46.6 percent from the floor in the win. Even though Wednesday marked Oubre's lowest scoring total in five games, his overall numbers in February have been exemplary. Over 13 games this month, he's averaged 20 points, 6.5 rebounds, 1.5 assists and 1.1 steals.
Feb 23, 2021
Season-high three blocks
Oubre registered 19 points (8-18 FG, 1-5 3Pt, 2-2 FT), eight rebounds, three blocks and two assists in the Warriors' 114-106 victory over the Knicks on Tuesday.
ANALYSIS
Oubre had another solid scoring game, scoring double figures for the ninth time this month, and also contributed a new season-high block total. The forward has been very good in the month of February averaging 20.3 points and 6.7 rebounds per game. While his scoring should continue, as he has become a consistent option behind Stephen Curry, his rebound outputs could take a hit with James Wiseman (wrist) and Kevon Looney (ankle) returning to the lineup Tuesday.
Feb 21, 2021
Paces Golden State in loss
Oubre delivered 25 points (9-19 FG, 4-9 3Pt, 3-5 FT), six rebounds, two steals and an assist across 37 minutes in Saturday's loss against the Hornets.
ANALYSIS
Oubre attempted 19 shots, his second-highest mark of the season, and assumed a bigger role on offense with Stephen Curry (illness) out -- that translated in his third straight game with at least 23 points. Oubre got off to a woeful start to the campaign but has been trending in the right direction of late, as he has scored at least 15 points in eight of his last 12 contests.
Feb 19, 2021
Collects season-high four steals
Oubre dropped 26 points (10-18 FG, 3-6 3Pt, 3-7 FT), seven rebounds, four steals and one assist in 37 minutes during the Warriors' loss Friday to the Magic.
ANALYSIS
Oubre continues to make fantasy managers happy during the month of February. He's managed to top 20 points in four of 10 games, including a 40-point performance, while adding at least five rebounds seven times and a steal in six of those contests. For the month, Oubre is averaging 19.9 points, 6.6 rebounds and 1.2 steals while shooting 48.7 percent from the field and 46.7 percent from distance.
Feb 18, 2021
Solid all-around line in win
Oubre had 23 points (9-15 FG, 4-7 3Pt, 1-2 FT), eight rebounds, two assists and three steals in Wednesday's overtime win over Miami.
ANALYSIS
Oubre has been much more consistent of late after a disastrous start of the season that incited some panic among fantasy managers. Over his last 10 games, Oubre is putting up 19.1 points, 6.5 rebounds, 1.7 assists and shooting 48.6 percent from the field, while hitting 2.7 threes per contest (45.0% 3Pt).
Feb 14, 2021
Double-doubles vs. Nets
Oubre logged 17 points (6-15 FG, 1-5 3Pt, 4-4 FT), 10 rebounds, two assists, one block and one steal Saturday in a 134-117 loss to the Nets.
ANALYSIS
Oubre replicated most of his previous performance against the Magic by supplying 17 points and 10 rebounds. Unlike that Orlando game, he missed more shots and the Warriors lost rather convincingly. Even so, Oubre logged his third consecutive double-double and is showing glimpses of the form expected from his previous tenure with Phoenix.
Feb 12, 2021
Logs second straight double-double
Oubre posted 17 points (6-12 FG, 3-7 3Pt, 2-2 FT), 10 rebounds and four assists across 34 minutes in Thursday's 111-104 win over the MAgic.
ANALYSIS
Oubre's string of games is the best indication yet that the Warriors are finally starting to lean on Oubre, who started slow out of the gate with his new team. Without a viable big man due to injury, the team has shifted to a small-ball approach that employs Oubre as more of a slashing playmaker who can pick up a good amount of rebounds. We should see exemplary numbers from Oubre until James Wiseman and Kevon Looney return from injury., at which point his value should be re-evaluated.
Feb 9, 2021
Sharp shooting despite loss
Oubre had 24 points (9-16 FG, 4-8 3Pt, 2-3 FT), four rebounds, two blocks and an assist across 36 minutes in Monday's loss against the Spurs.
ANALYSIS
Oubre has scored in double digits in seven of his last eight appearances, and while that shouldn't be surprising given his track record, it's a step in the right direction given his slow start to the season. Oubre has scored at least 20 points in three of those seven games as well, and he seems to be trending in the right direction after averaging just 11.9 points per game while shooting 35.5 percent from the field in the first month of the season (15 games).
Feb 5, 2021
Explodes with 40 points
Oubre exploded Thursday, scoring 40 points (14-21 FG, 7-10 3Pt, 5-6 FT) and also added eight rebounds, two assists, one block and one steal in the Warriors' 147-116 victory over the Mavericks.
ANALYSIS
Oubre could not be stopped on Thursday as he came away with a new career-high in scoring. Coming into the game, the forward was making under 25 percent from three on the season, so a seven for ten game was a delight for fantasy managers. With the Warriors' front court missing three players, Oubre also factored in on the glass, securing eight rebounds. Look for Oubre to continue to see a heavy workload Saturday.
Feb 3, 2021
Puts up 12 points Tuesday
Oubre notched 12 points (5-11 FG, 1-3 3Pt, 1-2 FT), two assists and a rebound across 26 minutes in Tuesday's loss against the Celtics.
ANALYSIS
Oubre continues to perform below the expectations of many fantasy managers, as he has been unable to settle as a reliable second-best of third-best scoring threat for the Warriors, but he might be on the verge of turning things around. He has scored 12 or more points in four of his last five games, averaging 13.6 points and shooting 46.3 percent from the field in those contests.
Jan 28, 2021
Scorching from field in win
Oubre tallied 20 points (7-9 FG, 2-3 3Pt, 4-4 FT), nine rebounds, three assists, two steals and a blocked shot Wednesday in a win over Minnesota.
ANALYSIS
Though he totaled only nine field-goal attempts, Oubre ended up as the Warriors' second-highest scorer thanks to a hot hand that resulted in missing only a pair of tries. Following a two-game stretch during which he converted only four of 19 field-goal attempts, Oubre has totaled 34 points and hit 11 of 18 shots over his last two games. That contrast is fairly indicative of an up-and-down campaign in which the forward has balanced stretches of promise with a number of poor shooting performances.
Jan 26, 2021
Shows improvement in Monday's win
Oubre finished with 14 points (4-9 FG, 2-3 3Pt, 4-5 FT), six rebounds, four assists, three steals and one block in 28 minutes Monday in the Warriors' 130-108 win over the Timberwolves.
ANALYSIS
Oubre's solid all-around shooting was a welcome sight after he had combined for 12 points on 4-for-19 from the field between the Warriors' previous two games. In addition to the bounce-back outing on the offensive end, Oubre did a good job of making his presence felt defensively, recording four or more steals plus blocks for the fourth time this season.
Jan 24, 2021
Has another rough performance
Oubre recorded five points (2-8 FG, 0-2 3PT, 1-2 FT), two rebounds and one assist in 24 minutes during the 127-108 loss to Utah on Saturday.
ANALYSIS
Oubre had been in a fine run of form leading up to the match against New York. The forward had struggled to find any shooting success and continued that against Utah. Luckily Oubre has been producing in the paint, but it is not making up for the nights where he cannot sink his shot. When his form is on, he is a great role player for the Warriors, but when it is not, he is most certainly not viable.
Jan 21, 2021
Near double-double vs. Spurs
Oubre recorded 16 points (4-11 FG, 2-4 3Pt, 6-8 FT), nine rebounds, two steals and one block in a 121-99 win Wednesday versus San Antonio.
ANALYSIS
Oubre was one rebound shy of recording his first double-double of the season, of which he last came close in an 11-rebound performance on Dec. 27. He seems to have found his stride in Golden State's past five games, averaging 16.4 points and 5.8 rebounds.
Jan 19, 2021
Registers season-high 23 points
Oubre totaled 23 points (9-18 FG, 2-8 3Pt, 3-4 FT), four rebounds, two steals and two blocks in Monday's win over the Lakers.
ANALYSIS
Oubre led the Warriors with 37 minutes in the victory and surpassed the 20-point mark for the first time this season. After a slow start to the campaign, the 25-year-old has begun to pick things up lately with four straight games in double-digit scoring. Over that span, Oubre is posting per-game averages of 16.5 points, 5.0 rebounds, 2.3 treys and 1.3 blocked shots.
Jan 15, 2021
Puts up 14 points in loss
Oubre produced 14 points (3-10 FG, 3-8 3Pt, 5-6 FT), five rebounds, two assists, a steal and a blocked shot across 330 minutes in Thursday's 114-104 loss to the Nuggets.
ANALYSIS
Oubre's two-game run is encouraging, but there seems to be a general lack of confidence in getting the ball into Oubre's hands. It's Stephen Curry's responsibility to deliver the ball to his playmakers, and although there's been an incremental improvement, Curry has missed several opportunities to get the ball to Oubre. Curry can't carry the team by himself, and so far, Oubre's talents have been severely under-utilized. Season-long managers of Oubre are playing a waiting game in hopes of a change in output.
Jan 13, 2021
Scores 17 points
Oubre had 17 points (6-11 FG, 3-7 3Pt, 2-2 FT), five rebounds, two assists, one block and one steal in Tuesday's 104-95 loss to the Pacers.
ANALYSIS
Oubre led the Warriors early with 15 first-half points. Though he slowed down later on, the forward still cemented one of his better performances in Golden State's recent home spell. Oubre averaged 12.6 points and shot 41.0 percent through seven games in that stretch.
Jan 7, 2021
Looks set for Friday
Oubre (undisclosed) is not listed on Friday's injury report.
ANALYSIS
Oubre and teammate Andrew Wiggins were both partial participants in Thursday's practice for undisclosed reasons, but neither starter is actually listed on the injury report. As such, both are on track for Friday's rematch against the Clippers. Oubre has averaged 14.3 points, 4.3 rebounds, 1.3 steals and 1.0 blocks in 28.0 minutes over the Warriors' last three games.
Jan 7, 2021
Probable for Friday
Oubre is probable for Friday's game against the Clippers, Nick Friedell of ESPN.com reports.
ANALYSIS
For undisclosed reasons, Oubre was only a partial participant in Thursday's practice. However, we shouldn't be concerned about him missing Friday's rematch against the Clippers. Over the past three games, he's averaging 14.3 points, 4.3 rebounds, 1.3 steals and 1.0 blocks in 28.0 minutes.
Jan 7, 2021
Shooting woes continue
Oubre posted eight points (4-13 FG, 0-6 3Pt), five rebounds and a steal across 25 minutes in Wednesday's loss against the Clippers.
ANALYSIS
Oubre scored in double digits in four straight games prior to this game, but the shooting issues that have plagued him all year long resurfaced once again Wednesday. Oubre is not in danger of losing his starting role with the Warriors, but he hasn't been productive across most fantasy formats. Through eight games, he is averaging just 10.5 points while shooting a disappointing 33.7 percent from the field and an abysmal 14.3 percent from three-point range.
Jan 5, 2021
Scores season-high 18 points
Oubre tallied 18 points (6-13 FG, 4-6 3Pt, 2-2 FT), three rebounds, two assists and two blocks in a win over the Kings on Monday.
ANALYSIS
Oubre scored in single digits and missed all 17 of his three-point tries during a rough three-game start to his Warriors career, but he has since come on to average 14.8 points over his last four contests. The wingman not only registered a season high in scoring Monday, he also made multiple treys for the first time during the campaign. He is playing plenty of minutes and should have ample opportunity to continue building momentum for a Golden State team that lacks depth behind him.
Jan 2, 2021
Modest production Friday
Oubre scored 10 points (4-12 FG, 0-4 3Pt, 2-3 FT) to go with four rebounds and one block over 28 minutes in Friday's 123-98 loss to Portland.
ANALYSIS
Oubre was far less efficient from the floor than he was Tuesday, when he converted on 60 percent of his field goals. However, the 25-year-old still logged a double-digit scoring total for a second consecutive game after failing to do so over the first three matchups of the year. He's averaging just 8.2 points per game early in his first season with the Warriors, but he's remained consistent with 6.4 rebounds per contest.
Dec 29, 2020
Finds rhythm in win
Oubre scored 14 points (6-10 FG, 1-4 3PT, 1-3 FT) to go with five rebounds, two steals and two blocks across 29 minutes in a 116-106 win over Detroit on Tuesday.
ANALYSIS
The young forward finally got comfortable after a rough scoring start to the season, finding a home near the basket with five of his six buckets coming from inside the restricted area. Despite a slow start to the season on offense, Oubre has averaged 2.0 steals and 1.0 blocks per game so far, making up fantasy value that hasn't come consistently from his scoring. Oubre scored eight points in the first half and hopefully is a kick start to get him back to 2019 form when he averaged 18.7 points per game.
Dec 25, 2020
Tough afternoon in loss
Oubre had just three points (1-10 FG, 0-5 3PT, 1-2 FT) and five rebounds in Friday's loss to the Bucks.
ANALYSIS
For the second straight game to begin the season, the Warriors were blow out by an Eastern Conference contender, which led to Oubre playing just 20 minutes. He hit only one of his 10 attempts from the field and committed a pair of turnovers, while handing out just one assist. Oubre still has considerable upside as perhaps the Warriors' second-best offensive option, but it's been a difficult start to the year for the Kansas product. On opening night, Oubre went 3-of-14 from the field for six points.
Dec 17, 2020
Excellent shooting performance
Oubre registered 22 points (8-12 FG, 4-6 3Pt, 2-2 FT), four rebounds, an assist and a block in just 23 minutes in Thursday's 113-109 preseason win over the Kings.
ANALYSIS
Oubre didn't even play an entire half combined, but he still ended as Golden State's second-best scoring threat while posting a team-high plus-minus rating of 19. Oubre has a great opportunity ahead of him, as Klay Thompson's Achilles injury will allow Oubre to work as one of Golden State's main scoring threats on a nightly basis.
Dec 16, 2020
Goes for 12 points in loss
Oubre finished with 12 points (3-9 FG, 1-3 3Pt, 1-3 FT), five rebounds and an assist across 24 minutes in Tuesday's 114-113 loss to the Kings.
ANALYSIS
Oubre left the Suns for the Thunder in the offseason as part of the Chris Paul trade. but was eventually dealt to Golden State. The Warriors should be a good fit for Oubre as the team works to find a solution to the loss of Klay Thompson. On paper, Oubre and Thompson excel in similar categories. The Kansas product is a multi-category contributor who averaged 5.5 attempts from beyond the arc last season. One should expect Oubre to be an every-day starter for the Warriors and worth a middle-round draft pick in all formats.
Dec 13, 2020
Promising start to Warriors career
Oubre amassed 10 points (4-10 FG, 1-6 3Pt, 1-1 FT), four rebounds, three blocks and two assists in 22 minutes during Saturday's preseason victory over Denver.
ANALYSIS
Oubre started at shooting guard for the Warriors, a role that he is likely to fill for the majority of the season after Klay Thompson (Achilles) was ruled out. Oubre lands in a nice situation and should be able to at least replicate what he did last season. He is going off the board in the middle rounds of most drafts and if you can snag him in the 70's, you should be able to basically plug-and-play all season long.
Nov 19, 2020
Dealt to Golden State
Oubre has been traded from the Thunder to the Warriors, Adrian Wojnarowski of ESPN reports.
ANALYSIS
In the wake of Klay Thompson suffering a season-ending Achilles injury, the Warriors have opted to use their $17.2 million trade exception to acquire Oubre, who was recently traded from the Suns to the Thunder. The soon-to-be 25-year-old should immediately start at small forward for the Warriors and play a key role for a team with title aspirations. He's coming off a career year, where he averaged 18.7 points, 6.4 rebounds, 1.5 assists and 2.0 combined steals-plus-blocks in 34.5 minutes. It wouldn't be surprising if we saw him occupy a similar role with the Warriors, who have an extremely thin bench and can use every minute Oubre is able to give them.
Nov 16, 2020
Traded to Thunder in CP3 deal
Oubre was traded to the Thunder on Monday as part of a deal that brings Chris Paul to the Suns, Shams Charania of The Athletic reports.
ANALYSIS
Oubre is coming off of the best statistical season of his career, but he'll now head to Oklahoma City as he plays on the final year of his current contract. At this point, it's unclear if the Thunder view Oubre as a part of their long-term future, but the former Kansas standout has improved dramatically over the last few seasons, and he's yet to turn 25 years old. In 56 games in 2019-20, Oubre averaged 18.7 points, 6.4 rebounds, 1.5 assists and 1.3 steals. Considering the Thunder's position as a rebuilding team, Oubre could conceivably step in as one of the top scoring options alongside Shai Gilgeous-Alexander.
Aug 13, 2020
Out for finale
Oubre (knee) will not play during Thursday's game against the Mavericks, Gerald Bourguet of FanSided reports.
ANALYSIS
As expected, Oubre isn't yet ready to make his return. If the Suns lose Thursday, he'll have to wait until next season to take the court. If the Suns can manage to make the postseason, it's still possible Oubre returns.
Aug 12, 2020
Likely out for finale
Oubre (knee) is doubtful for the Suns' seeding finale against the Mavericks on Thursday.
ANALYSIS
The Suns' playoff lives are potentially on the line, but Oubre still likely hasn't made enough progress to take the court. If the Suns do make the postseason, it's possible Oubre makes a return in Round 1.
Aug 10, 2020
Ruled out
Oubre (knee) will not play in Monday's game against Oklahoma City.
ANALYSIS
No surprise here, as Oubre is still working his way back from a torn meniscus suffered prior to the shutdown. He appears to be making incremental progress, but the Suns are yet to indicate that Oubre is ready to return to game action. Unless Phoenix makes the playoffs, Oubre's 2019-20 season may be over, as the Suns have just two more seeding games remaining after Monday's.
Aug 9, 2020
Again listed as doubtful
Oubre (knee) is listed as doubtful for Monday's game against Oklahoma City.
ANALYSIS
Keeping with their recent trend, the Suns are listing Oubre as doubtful, but it doesn't appear that he's on track to return to action before the end of seeding games. With that portion of the schedule wrapping up for the Suns on Tuesday, we may not see Oubre again this season unless Phoenix qualifies for the playoffs.
Aug 7, 2020
Doubtful Saturday
Oubre (knee) is doubtful Saturday against the Heat.
ANALYSIS
Oubre is still recovering from right knee surgery, and it's unlikely he makes his return Saturday. Assuming he's out, his next chance to take the floor arrives Monday against the Thunder.
Aug 6, 2020
Won't play Thursday
Oubre (knee) will not play Thursday against the Pacers, Kellan Olson of ArizonaSports.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Coach Monty Williams noted that Oubre "played a little" in Wednesday's practice but there was nothing he saw to merit Oubre playing Thursday. It at least sounds like Oubre is making some progress. His next chance to play arrives Saturday against the Heat.
Aug 5, 2020
Unlikely to play vs. Pacers
Oubre (knee) is listed as doubtful for Thursday's matchup against the Pacers.
ANALYSIS
There hasn't been much word regarding Oubre's rehab lately, so it's not surprising that he's listed as doubtful. It remains to be seen if he'll play at all this season, though there's certainly an increased chance of that happening if the Suns can miraculously make the playoffs.
Aug 3, 2020
Out Tuesday
Oubre (knee) won't play Tuesday against the Clippers, Kellan Olson of ArizonaSports.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Oubre is currently recovering from a torn right meniscus suffered back in February. The guard has yet to participate in full contact practice since entering the NBA bubble, and it doesn't appear likely that the 2015 first-round pick will be back on the court with the Suns anytime soon.
Jul 28, 2020
Still not taking contact
Suns head coach Monty Williams confirmed Monday that Oubre (knee) has yet to take contact in practice since joining the team in Orlando for the resumption of the season, Duane Rankin of The Arizona Republic reports. "I don't have an update on Kelly at all," Williams said, when asked about the wing's status.
ANALYSIS
After wavering on whether to join the Suns in the NBA bubble, Oubre ultimately made the trip to the Walt Disney World complex, but he hasn't demonstrated much meaningful progress in his recovery from the right knee surgery he required March 3. While Williams suggested that Oubre has been able to complete some on-court work and looks great physically, the lack of contact work to date makes it safe to rule him out for at least the Suns' first game of the regular-season restart Friday against the Wizards, and likely additional contests beyond that.
Jul 11, 2020
Mostly rehabbing in bubble
Oubre (knee) is doing a "little bit" of on-court work at practice but is mostly doing rehab work, Kellan Olson of ArizonaSports.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Coach Monty Williams described Oubre as "looking great" but it remains unclear if he'll participate in the Suns' upcoming games -- the first of which is July 31 against the Wizards. If Oubre is unable to play, Mikal Bridges, Cam Johnson and Dario Saric could see expanded roles.

Not ruled out for Orlando
The Suns have not officially ruled Oubre out for when play resumes in Orlando, Duane Rankin of the Arizona Republic reports.
ANALYSIS
Last month, it was reported that Oubre would miss the remainder of the season while recovering from a torn right meniscus. But during an interview Monday, Suns GM James Jones left the door open for the wing to return to action at some point in Orlando. "Kelly's been here, he's been rehabbing and so my expectations for him are the same as every other player, come in every day, practice with the team, work and compete and get yourself in a position to play and hopefully that's before Orlando ends," Jones said.

Won't return this season
Oubre (knee) will miss the resumption of the season to continue rehabbing, Shams Charania of The Athletic reports.
ANALYSIS
Earlier in the month, there were reports that indicated Oubre would likely play in Orlando. Things have seemingly changed, however, and he will prioritize his rehab. In Oubre's absence, Mikal Bridges, Cam Johnson and Dario Saric could see increased roles.

Expects to return in Orlando
Oubre (knee) is expected to be fully recovered from a torn right meniscus and available for the Suns when the season returns in Orlando on July 31, Kellan Olson of ArizonaSports.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Oubre tore his right meniscus in late February and subsequently underwent successful surgery. He has has been able to rehab at home during quarantine and has apparently not suffered any setbacks. The 24-year-old was second on the Suns in minutes played (34.5), so a return to the rotation would certainly make a significant impact. He also averaged 18.7 points, 6.4 rebounds and 1.3 steals per game before going down. The Suns have have teams ahead of them to jump for the two potential play-in spots after eight games.
Apr 16, 2020
Healed from knee surgery
Oubre (knee) is "though the healing process" of his surgery, Duane Rankin of The Arizona Republic reports.
ANALYSIS
Oubre hasn't been able to step on the court to test his knee due to coronavirus concerns, but it's a good sign that he's ready to take that step. All signs are pointing toward Oubre being ready for the Suns' 2020 training camp.
Apr 13, 2020
Progressing well from knee surgery
Oubre (knee) indicated that he's continuing to make progress in his recovery from surgery to repair a torn meniscus while conducting his rehab at home, Mike Mazzeo of Yahoo Sports reports. "I've just been staying on top of myself and pushing myself and doing everything [team trainers are] telling me to do to the best of my abilities," Oubre said. "So I've been having to be my own trainer throughout this whole thing, but that's how it goes."
ANALYSIS
Oubre had been sidelined for seven games following the procedure before the NBA suspended its season March 12. The swingman likely wouldn't have been ready to return to the court had the season concluded in mid-April as originally scheduled, but the league's ongoing suspension looks as though it could provide enough time for Oubre to recover from surgery and get himself in condition to play again in 2019-20. The Suns likely won't provide a formal update on Oubre's status until the team is allowed to reconvene for workouts.
Mar 14, 2020
Could play if season resumes
Oubre (knee) may be able to play this season if games resume in mid-April or later, Duane Rankin of the Arizona Republic reports.
ANALYSIS
It seemed unlikely we would see Oubre again this season after he underwent surgery for a torn meniscus in early March. However, if the regular season resumes in some capacity, Oubre could potentially return. The Suns are 26-39, sitting in the 13th spot in the Western Conference. If we have seen the last of Oubre in 2019-20, he'll have finished the season with career highs in points (18.7), rebounds (6.4), assists (1.5), threes (1.9), field-goal percentage (45.2) and three-point percentage (35.2).
Mar 3, 2020
To be re-evaluated in four weeks
Oubre has undergone successful arthroscopic surgery on the torn meniscus in his right knee and is set to be re-evaluated in four weeks.
ANALYSIS
There will only be a handful of games left in the season once Oubre is set to be re-evaluated, so unless the Suns make a big comeback in the standings, it seems unlikely he will return this season. In his absence, Mikal Bridges, Saric and Cameron Johnson (back) figure to continue seeing extra minutes.
Mar 3, 2020
Set for surgery
Oubre (knee) will undergo surgery to repair a meniscus injury in his right knee, John Gambadoro of ArizonaSports.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Oubre was initially diagnosed with the injury last week, but he was seeking other opinions, likely in hopes of avoiding surgery. The Kansas product has now opted to undergo a procedure on Tuesday, and it's unclear how much time he'll miss. The Suns are expected to provide an update on Wednesday.
Feb 27, 2020
Diagnosed with torn meniscus
Oubre has been diagnosed with a torn meniscus in his right knee, Chris Haynes of Yahoo Sports reports.
ANALYSIS
This is a tough break for Oubre, who is in the midst of a career year, averaging 18.7 points, 6.4 rebounds, 1.5 assists and 1.3 steals in 34.5 minutes per game this season. Per Haynes, the 24-year-old is headed to a specialist to receive a second opinion, at which point a timetable for his return should come into focus. In the meantime, Oubre should be considered out indefinitely.
Feb 25, 2020
Out with knee injury
Oubre won't play Wednesday against the Clippers due to a knee injury, Duane Rankin of The Arizona Republic reports.
ANALYSIS
The specifics of the issue remain unclear, but he presumably picked up the injury during Monday's win over Utah when he totaled 18 points, three rebounds, two assists, one steal and one block in 38 minutes. Dario Saric and Cameron Johnson figured to see increased run during his absence.
Feb 25, 2020
Scores 18
Oubre produced 18 points (7-13 FG, 1-3 3Pt, 3-4 FT), three rebounds two assists, a steal and a block across 38 minutes during the Suns' 131-111 win over Utah on Monday night.
ANALYSIS
Oubre was 16-of-48 in Phoenix's previous three contests, but snapped the mini-shooting slump with an efficient outing Monday. Somewhat alarming is the fact that Oubre has made just eight of his last 35 three point tries (22.8 percent). Nonetheless, his 19.4 points per game through February corresponds to his season average. He has been top-10 small forward for fantasy purposes thus far.
Feb 13, 2020
Poor shooting in victory
Oubre ended with 15 points (5-16 FG, 3-10 3Pt, 2-2 FT) and six rebounds in 32 minutes during Wednesday's 112-106 victory over the Warriors.
ANALYSIS
Oubre was back in the starting lineup Wednesday after apparently managing to turn up to the team bus prior to the game. His playing time was back up over 30 minutes; however, the production did not follow suit. He shot poorly from the field and failed to add any defensive numbers. That makes three sub-par performances in a row for Oubre who has been a solid mid-round player all season long. The Suns don't play again until Friday week, giving Oubre plenty of time to rest before facing the Raptors.
Feb 12, 2020
Rejoins starting five
Oubre is starting Wednesday against the Warriors
ANALYSIS
Oubre was moved to the bench Monday after missing the team bus and had only 10 points, three rebounds and two assists in 27 minutes, his lowest workload since Dec. 27. The 24-year-old return to his 34.5-minute average in Wednesday's contest.
Feb 11, 2020
Production suffers in bench role
Oubre came off the bench and provided 10 points (4-9 FG, 0-2 3Pt, 2-3 FT), three rebounds and two assists in 27 minutes Monday in the Suns' 125-100 loss to the Lakers.
ANALYSIS
Oubre had started in each of his first 51 appearances of the season, but coach Monty Williams decided to move the forward to the bench Monday as a result of missing the team bus to Staples Center, per Gina Mizell of The Athletic. The 24-year-old was apologetic about the situation when asked about it after the game, so there's a good chance he'll replace Cameron Johnson in the starting five when the Suns return to action Wednesday versus Golden State. Fantasy managers shouldn't be too spooked by Oubre's benching and the meager production that came with it.
Feb 10, 2020
Coming off bench
Oubre isn't in the starting lineup for Monday's game against the Lakers.
ANALYSIS
Oubre will move to a bench role Monday despite averaging 27.5 points over his last four matchups. Cameron Johnson enters the starting five in Oubre's place.
Feb 8, 2020
Career high against Houston
Oubre finished with 39 points (14-19 FG, 7-9 3Pt, 4-4 FT), nine boards, two blocks, and one steal in 36 minutes against the Rockets on Friday.
ANALYSIS
Oubre set a new career high in scoring in his team's dominant win against the Rockets. It was his second straight game with 30 points and he's scored at least 20 points in his last three outings. Oubre will look to stay hot against the Nuggets on Saturday.
Feb 5, 2020
Pours in 30 in loss
Oubre scored a team-high 30 points (11-19 FG, 5-9 3Pt, 3-3 FT) while adding five rebounds and two assists in 42 minutes during Wednesday's 116-108 loss to the Pistons.
ANALYSIS
The performance tied his season scoring high, set back on Nov. 14 against the Hawks. Oubre has popped for 25 or more points in three of the last six games, and since returning to action in late January from a concussion he's averaging 20.8 points, 8.0 boards, 2.2 threes and 1.3 assists over the last nine contests.
Feb 1, 2020
Another productive effort in loss
Oubre totaled 27 points (8-15 FG, 4-8 3Pt, 7-9 FT), 11 rebounds and two steals in 39 minutes during Friday's 111-107 loss to the Thunder.
ANALYSIS
Oubre nailed a late three-pointer as the Suns made one final charge, ultimately falling four points short. He has now scored 27 points in two of his last three games as he continues to work his way back from a short injury layoff. Oubre has been a top-50 player this season, providing a nice return on where he was being drafted.
Jan 26, 2020
Scores 27 to go with nine boards
Oubre accumulated 27 points (8-19 FG, 2-5 3Pt, 9-10 FT), nine rebounds and three assists in 38 minutes during Sunday's 114-109 loss to the Grizzlies.
ANALYSIS
Oubre scored at least 20 for the 18th time through 44 appearances this season, and his career year continues. In fact, he's averaging career highs in scoring, rebounding and minutes while maintaining a career-best field-goal percentage and remains a very versatile contributor along the wing.
Jan 25, 2020
Turns in 16 points in win
Oubre totaled 16 points (6-14 FG, 0-5 3Pt, 4-6 FT), two assists, nine rebounds, two steals and three blocks in 34 minutes during Friday's 103-99 victory over the Spurs.
ANALYSIS
Oubre couldn't hit any of his attempts from three-point land but made six of his nine shots from inside the arc to end up with a decent day. Through 43 games this season, the 24-year-old is averaging a career-high 18.1 points per contest.
Jan 23, 2020
Team-high 17
Oubre accumulated 17 points (5-16 FG, 1-4 3Pt, 6-7 FT), nine rebounds and a block Wednesday night in the Suns' 112-87 loss to Indiana.
ANALYSIS
The Suns as a team shot under 36 percent for the game. Although Oubre wasn't exactly efficient himself, he has now scored at least 15 points in eight of his nine January games. He is in the midst of a career month, averaging 20.3 points and 7.8 rebounds on nearly 50 percent shooting.
Jan 21, 2020
Plays 37 minutes in return
Oubre had 15 points (6-13 FG, 1-6 3PT, 2-3 FT) and eight rebounds in Monday's loss to San Antonio.
ANALYSIS
Oubre made his return from a concussion and immediately slotted back into the starting lineup at small forward. While he struggled from beyond the arc and eventually fouled out, Oubre did not see a limited workload, finishing with 37 minutes played - the third-highest total on the team behind Devin Booker (39) and Deandre Ayton (39).
Jan 20, 2020
Gets green light
Oubre (concussion) has been cleared to play Monday against San Antonio, Kellan Olson of ArizonaSports.com reports.
ANALYSIS
As expected, Oubre has gained clearance to take the court Monday evening following a two-game absence due to a concussion. He figures to slot right back into the starting five and should take on his typical workload.
Jan 20, 2020
Goes through shootaround
Oubre (concussion) managed to make it through shootaround but remains a game-time decision for Monday's game against San Antonio, Kellan Olson of ArizonaSports.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Although Oubre appears to have returned to full health, coach Monty Williams wouldn't commit to his return Monday. Look for the team to provide an update regarding Oubre's status closer to tipoff.
Jan 19, 2020
Expected back Monday
Oubre (concussion) is expected to return Monday against the Spurs.
ANALYSIS
Oubre missed the last two games with a concussion, but he's trending in the right direction and expects to be cleared by the time Monday night rolls around. The Kansas product will likely return to the starting lineup at one forward spot.
Jan 17, 2020
Listed out for Saturday
Oubre (concussion) is out for Saturday's game against Boston, Gina Mizell of The Athletic reports.
ANALYSIS
Oubre will miss his second straight game due to a concussion. With Cameron Johnson (quad) also questionable, Mikal Bridges figures to draw another start at small forward.
Jan 15, 2020
Ruled out Thursday
Oubre is in concussion protocol and will not play Thursday against the Knicks, Kellan Olson of ArizonaSports.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Oubre apparently picked up the injury during Tuesday's win over the Hawks, which helps explain his lackluster stat line (11 points, three rebounds, one assist and one block in 38 minutes). He'll miss at least one game while in the league's concussion protocol, with his next chance to play coming Saturday in Boston. Cameron Johnson and Mikal Bridges are both candidates to see increased minutes in Oubre's absence.
Jan 13, 2020
Fills stat sheet in win
Oubre Jr. had 25 points (10-19 FG, 2-6 3PT, 3-4 FT), 15 rebounds, three steals, two blocks and one assist in 40 minutes during Sunday's 100-92 win over the Hornets.
ANALYSIS
Oubre Jr. has started the new year on a strong note, averaging 22.7 points -- while shooting 53.8 percent from the field -- to go along with 8.5 rebounds and 1.7 steals since the beginning of January. He will aim to extend his stellar run of form Tuesday on the road against the Hawks.
Jan 11, 2020
Scores 22, nears double-double
Oubre posted 22 points (8-13 FG, 3-7 3Pt, 3-4 FT) in a win over the Magic on Friday, adding nine rebounds and one block in 34 minutes.
ANALYSIS
Oubre has reached 17 points in each of his last seven outings, and hit at least 26 points in three of those. He has also swished 3.4 triples, and grabbed 8.1 boards and 1.7 steals in that same time span. The 24-year old has produced mid-round value this season, and early-round value as of the last couple of weeks - including a top 10 standing in nine-category formats since Dec. 28.
Dec 28, 2019
Good to go Saturday
Oubre (groin) will play Saturday against the Kings, Duane Rankin of The Arizona Republic reports.
ANALYSIS

Dec 27, 2019
Good to go

Dec 26, 2019
Probable Friday
Oubre is probable for Friday's game against the Warriors due to a groin injury, Duane Rankin of The Arizona Republic reports.
