[Woj] Free agent G/F Kelly Oubre Jr., is expected to sign a one-year deal with the Philadelphia 76ers, sources tell ESPN. Oubre — who averaged 20 points for Charlotte last season — could get significant opportunity on the wing with the uncertainty around James Harden.

lol
20 points? A game?
I don’t hate it. It’s on the minimum.
Idc if he sucks at least he is can run and is kinda fun
At least it’s a roster spot used on a wing player that’s not 30+ years old
Okay I’m back in now. Just need James harden to
Come back and we are contenders
At least we got hotter
Low risk high reward I’m down with it
morey does it again wow
Windy: ☝️🤔☝️
Love it.. a wing that can actually score
solid pickup
fuck i hate him but ig you cant go wrong with minimums
Inefficient shot chucker but we finally got a wing!
This is a slam dunk. I could not be happier.
This move is kind of weird while we still have harden,house and tucker
If he can play within the offense and be consistent i’m all for it
There’s a reason why this guy has been on the market for so long, NY he was only offered a vet minimum contract.
Fine with the pick up – definitely low risk, high reward, but this isn’t going to move the needle for us most likely. And I don’t think there’s a way to really improve the team until next summer, unfortunately.
Meh, he’s kind of fun to watch. Can he play defense?
We got our tank commander just incase things go really bad.
I am with this, needed a forward like him
I’m straight but Kelly is so fine. Pause!!!
Just like that I am back into sixers basketball. We got the light skin king himself
NOW THATS WHAT IM talking about
Is there a chance he starts in a Harden holdout situation?
His 3PT% is awful but it’s either him, 38yo Tucker or House
A wing who while inefficient at least can get some buckets and provide some athleticism. On the minimum it really doesn’t get much better. Hopefully they can reign him in.
Squad just got a whole lot more handsome
I want you to put the word out there that we back up
Rock Chalk.
Oubre and Reed will be a fun, bouncy lineup. Hopefully they don’t foul out within 10 minutes of action
None of these signings should be looked at too deeply. They’re just signing the best players they can get on 1 year deals. They’re prioritizing cap space next year above all else.
Not sure how good the team will be next year, but it may very well be an entertaining team at the very least.
