Kelly Oubre Jr. Fantasy Stats

Philadelphia 76ers guard/forward Kelly Oubre Jr. and center Andre Drummond have been named as starters for Saturday's matchup with the Detroit Pistons. While Drummond's move to the first unit was expected after Philadelphia ruled Joel Embiid (oblique, illness) out for the game, Oubre Jr.'s re-emergence as a starter is a bit surprising. He has come off the bench in four straight games. On Saturday, Oubre Jr. will replace Dominick Barlow in the starting lineup. Both Oubre Jr. and Drummond have more fantasy appeal as starters.

Philadelphia 76ers guard/forward Kelly Oubre Jr. (elbow) appears set to rejoin the lineup on Saturday against the Charlotte Hornets. While the team has officially listed him as questionable for the game, Oubre said on Friday that he will play. The former Hornet has been out of the lineup for eight games due to a left elbow injury. Tyrese Maxey (finger) could also be back in action on Saturday, meaning Philadelphia may have all players available for the game. Quentin Grimes and Dominick Barlow could lose playing time with Oubre Jr.'s return.

According to Michael Scotto of USA Today, Philadelphia 76ers forward Kelly Oubre Jr. (elbow) will miss at least two weeks. Oubre is dealing with a sprain of the lateral collateral ligament in his left elbow. The 30-year-old was already out of action for nearly two months with a knee sprain. With Oubre on the shelf and so many 76ers injuries, Justin Edwards could see an expanded role and is a sneaky streaming option as he finished with 14 points, two rebounds and three assists in 28 minutes during Monday's loss to the Cavs.

Philadelphia 76ers forward Kelly Oubre Jr. (illness) is ruled out ahead of Wednesday's game against the Utah Jazz. Oubre will now miss both games of the back-to-back set due to a lingering illness. His next chance to play will come versus the Atlanta Hawks on Saturday. The Sixers are going to need to lean on their backup forwards, with VJ Edgecombe (back) also sidelined. Quentin Grimes, Justin Edwards, and Jabari Walker are all candidates to see increased roles on Wednesday. Walker could be a sneaky streaming option after dropping 20 points with seven rebounds across 19 minutes of action on Tuesday.

Philadelphia 76ers guard/forward Kelly Oubre Jr. (illness) will play on Wednesday night against the Cleveland Cavaliers. He was added to the injury report late due to illness. Now, the team has upgraded Oubre Jr.'s status to available. The veteran has featured in four games since returning from a knee injury, averaging 5.5 points, 4.5 rebounds, and 1.5 steals in 24.5 minutes. While Oubre Jr.'s production has been underwhelming, his workload has been increasing, and it should eventually show in his numbers. He logged 30-plus minutes in both games during a recent back-to-back against the Toronto Raptors.

Philadelphia 76ers forward Kelly Oubre Jr. (knee) has been upgraded to questionable on the injury report ahead of Wednesday's contest against the Washington Wizards. The veteran has been sidelined since Nov. 14 due to a knee sprain, but he could be ready to return to the court against his former team. Before injuring his left knee, Oubre Jr. was performing well. He has averaged 16.8 points, 5.1 rebounds, and 1.1 steals in 34.8 minutes this season. Initially, Oubre Jr.'s workload is likely to be limited upon his return.

Philadelphia 76ers guard/forward Kelly Oubre Jr. (knee) is set to miss two weeks of action. The 29-year-old sustained an LCL strain in his left knee last Friday against the Detroit Pistons and has already sat out a pair of games. Oubre Jr. ranks fourth in scoring among the 76ers players, averaging 16.8 points in 34.8 minutes. He has had a large workload due to Paul George's (knee) absence. George made his season debut at the start of this week and could be back in action on Thursday night against the Milwaukee Bucks after sitting out the first leg of a back-to-back on Wednesday versus the Toronto Raptors.

Philadelphia 76ers guard/forward Kelly Oubre Jr. (knee) will miss a second consecutive game on Wednesday against the Toronto Raptors. Oubre Jr. sustained an LCL sprain in his left knee on Friday in a game against the Detroit Pistons. The veteran was productive before his injury, averaging 16.8 points, 5.1 rebounds, and 1.1 steals in 34.8 minutes. Paul George (knee) replaced Oubre Jr. in the starting lineup on Monday versus the Los Angeles Clippers, but he also won't play against the Raptors. Justin Edwards may get the starting nod, with Jabari Walker also in a position to play a larger role.

Philadelphia 76ers forward Kelly Oubre Jr. (knee) has been diagnosed with an LCL injury in his left knee and has officially been ruled out for Monday's game against the Los Angeles Clippers. There hasn't been a firm timetable announced for his return, so it seems like he'll be treated as day-to-day for the moment. Oubre has been a big part of the Sixers' early success, but with Paul George (knee) seemingly getting ready to make his debut, it could be good timing for reinforcements. If George doesn't play either, a combination of Justin Edwards, Trendon Watford, and Dominick Barlow would likely see more minutes. Edwards has been a great help for fantasy mangers looking for threes (1.6 per game), while Barlow has been better in rebounding and stock numbers.

Philadelphia 76ers forward Kelly Oubre Jr. (knee) was ruled out for the night after leaving Friday's loss to Detroit, finishing with three points, one rebound, one assist, and two steals in under 15 minutes. With Joel Embiid (knee) out and both Paul George (knee) and Jared McCain (G League) uncertain to return for the next game, this injury adds strain to Philadelphia's depth. Oubre has been a steady contributor this season, averaging 16.8 points, 5.1 rebounds, 1.3 assists, and 1.1 steals on 49.7% shooting and 34.3% from deep. If he misses time, expect increased usage for Quentin Grimes, VJ Edgecombe, and Justin Edwards, while Dominick Barlow, who just returned and logged 10 points and eight rebounds, becomes a deeper-league streaming option.
