76ers' Kelly Oubre: Joining Philadelphia
Oubre is expected to sign a one-year deal with the 76ers on Monday, Adrian Wojnarowski of ESPN reports.
Oubre averaged a career-high 20.3 points per game for the Hornets in 2022-23 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 in as starting forwards, while players like Danuel House, Paul Reed and Furkan Korkmaz compete for backup minutes. When the 76ers are at full strength, Oubre could serve as the first or second man off the bench, but he's unlikely to see anywhere close to the sort of usage he enjoyed on a non-contending Hornets squad that was missing several other key players much of last season. Oubre's fantasy outlook would take a step forward if the 76ers elect to trade James Harden, though Philadelphia could receive a player or turn in return in a deal that could absorb at least some of Harden's vacated usage.

Hornets' Kelly Oubre: Another absence on tap Friday
Oubre (shoulder) will miss Friday's game versus the Rockets.
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.

Hornets' Kelly Oubre: Sitting out again
Oubre (shoulder) will not play Tuesday against Toronto.
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).

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.

Hornets' Kelly Oubre: Questionable Tuesday
Oubre (shoulder) is questionable for Tuesday's contest against the Thunder.
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 Hornets' 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.

Hornets' Kelly Oubre: Questionable Friday
Oubre (shoulder) is questionable for Friday's game against the Mavericks.
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.

Hornets' Kelly Oubre: Game-high 28 points in comeback win
Oubre produced 28 points (10-17 FG, 3-7 3Pt, 5-9 FT), four steals and three rebounds across 33 minutes during Monday's 115-109 win over Indiana.
For the seventh time in the last nine games, Oubre reached the 20-point mark. He was more efficient Monday than he had been on previous occasions, though he regressed from the free-throw line after having converted at a 91.4 percent clip since the All-Star break prior to the matchup with Indiana. Oubre supplemented his scoring with the four steals, matching his combined total from his last eight appearances.

Hornets' Kelly Oubre: 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.
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.
