76ers' Kelly Oubre: Provides spark off bench in return
Oubre (rib) recorded 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.
Oubre missed his last 11 games after suffering a fractured rib in addition to injuries to his hip and right leg when he was struck by a car in Philadelphia on Nov. 11. Before missing time with the injury, Oubre had started in each of his previous five appearances while playing at least 26 minutes, but he was eased back into the mix Wednesday in a lower-minute bench role. Head coach Nick Nurse isn't ruling out the possibility of Oubre working his way back into the starting five, but the 76ers could view the offensive-minded forward as a better fit on the second unit.

76ers' Kelly Oubre: 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.
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.

76ers' Kelly Oubre: Will play Wednesday
Oubre (ribs) has been cleared to play in Wednesday's game against the Wizards, Keith Pompey of The Philadelphia Inquirer reports.
Oubre was a full participant at Monday's practice and walked away without any setbacks. Oubre will likely 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 appearances this season, Oubre averaged 16.3 points, 5.1 rebounds, 1.4 steals and 1.8 three-pointers.

76ers' Kelly Oubre: Set to practice Monday
Coach Nick Nurse said Friday that Oubre (ribs) will be a full participant in Monday's practice, Jared Weiss of The Athletic reports.
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.

76ers' Kelly Oubre: Targeting return next week
Oubre (ribs) could return to action as soon as Wednesday against the Wizards, Shams Charania of The Athletic reports.
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.

76ers' Kelly Oubre: Ruled out Wednesday
Oubre (ribs) will not play Wednesday against the Pelicans, Ky Carlin of USA Today reports.
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's road matchup against the Celtics. It's likely that he will have some restrictions early on when he gets the green light, as coach Nick Nurse has mentioned conditioning as Oubre's final hurdle before being cleared.

76ers' Kelly Oubre: 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.
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).

76ers' Kelly Oubre: 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.
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 looks like he'll be ready to see game action is the final week of November.

76ers' Kelly Oubre: Returns to practice
Oubre (ribs) participated in the 76ers' practice session Monday, Keith Pompey of the Philadelphia Enquirer reports.
Oubre recently resumed taking part in light work at the 76ers' practice facility, and the team was encouraged by the steps forward he took Monday, when he did some light shooting and cardio work. He'll be closely evaluated by the team's medical staff Monday and Tuesday before the 76ers potentially offer up a timeline for his 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 action in weeks rather than months.

76ers' Kelly Oubre: 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.
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.

76ers' Kelly Oubre: Will be re-evaluated in one week
Philadelphia announced Sunday that Oubre suffered a fractured rib after being struck by a car Saturday and will be re-evaluated in one week, Kyle Neubeck of AllPHLY.com reports.
Shams Charania of The Athletic and Adrian Wojnarowski of ESPN reported that Oubre would miss "significant time" after the accident, so even though the veteran wing will be re-evaluated next week, he's unlikely to be ready to play anytime soon. Oubre was released from the hospital Saturday and was diagnosed with injuries to his hip and right leg, in addition to the fractured rib, per Charania. Oubre was flourishing during his first season with the 76ers, averaging 16.3 points, 5.1 rebounds, 1.8 three-pointers and 1.4 steals in 29.9 minutes per game across eight appearances, so his absence will be felt. The 76ers could turn to Nicolas Batum and Robert Covington to fill most of Oubre's minutes at forward.

76ers' Kelly Oubre: 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.
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.

76ers' Kelly Oubre: 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.
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.

76ers' Kelly Oubre: 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.
Oubre is known for being a streaky shooter, and he averaged 24.0 points in his previous two games. He has been given a sizable role with the 76ers, but it remains to be seen if the franchise will pursue another star with their newly-acquired draft picks from the James Harden trade.

76ers' Kelly Oubre: 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.
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 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.

76ers' Kelly Oubre: 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.
Oubre entered the starting lineup Thursday following the trade of James Harden and P.J. Tucker to the Los Angeles Clippers, and he 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.

76ers' Kelly Oubre: Starting against Toronto
Oubre is in the starting lineup to face the Raptors on Thursday.
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.

76ers' Kelly Oubre: Set to start
Head coach Nick Nurse said Wednesday that Oubre will take on a starting role in the short term, Kyle Neubeck of AllPHLY.com reports.
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 season, 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 any of their four new acquisitions -- Robert Covington, Marcus Morris, Nicolas Batum or Kenyon Martin -- as a starter at forward alongside Tobias Harris.

76ers' Kelly Oubre: 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.
Oubre, who signed a one-year deal with the 76ers this offseason, built off his 27-point performance in the regular-season opener with yet another solid outing 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.
