Oubre (knee) won't play Monday versus the Nuggets.
Oubre was recently cleared for full-contact, 5-on-5 work, which is often the last step in the rehab process. While Oubre won't play Monday, he does appear to be close, so perhaps he'll be able to get back out there for Wednesday's game versus the Wizards.

76ers' Kelly Oubre: Cleared for 5-on-5 work
Rotowire
Oubre (knee) has been cleared to return to 5-on-5 work in practice, Adam Aaronson of PhillyVoice.com reports.
Oubre hasn't played since Nov. 14 due to a sprained LCL in his left knee, though he's seemingly getting close to a return to game action. His next opportunity to play will come Monday against the Nuggets. The veteran swingman has appeared in 12 regular-season games thus far, averaging 16.8 points, 5.1 rebounds, 1.3 assists and 1.1 steals across 34.8 minutes per tilt. However, it wouldn't be surprising to see him operate under a minutes restriction whenever he's cleared to return.
