Including Friday’s game against the Charlotte Hornets, the 76ers’ ‘Big 3’ has suited up in only four games together. But with all three playing, the 76ers got a big win. Following the game, Kelly Oubre Jr. <a href="https://x.com/sixers/status/1870301791016964472" rel="noopener">spoke about the camaraderie</a> in the 76ers locker room, as per the team.</p><p>“Just keep the same energy. It’s a great vibe right now in the locker room within the guys,” Oubre said. “Jo [Embiid] is fighting through a lot, and we see that. It’s up to us to have his back always, and just continue to just take steps in the right direction, which we are doing.”</p><p>Kelly Oubre has a point as the 76ers have now won six of their last ten games and two in a row. They are currently 9-16 and in 12th place in the Eastern Conference standings, but they are trending in the right direction. Oubre, who is a key role player for the team, finished with 22 points, five rebounds and two assists. He shot 8-of-10 from the field and 4-0f-6 from the three-point line.</p><p>Oubre explained how a lot of the shots he got were simply from playing off the defensive attention that Embiid draws. It was <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/76ers-news-is-joel-embiid-playing-vs-hornets-latest-injury-update-sinus-fracture">Embiid’s first game back after suffereing a sinus injury</a> over the weekend.</p><p>“A great synergy. He creates so much attention on the offensive end,” Oubre said. “All of us have to be ready to capitalize on it. It was wide-open, so we got to hit it. We did tonight and we got to keep it going.”</p><p>It’s obviously not too late for the 76ers to mount a comeback as there is still a lot of season left to be played. When the <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/76ers-news-philly-makes-paul-george-splash-free-agency">76ers added Paul George in free agency</a>, the prevailing thought was they were going to be a contender in the East. Health is going to be the key factor.</p><figure class="op-tracker"></figure></article>    </body></html>

He proved he could be a part of a winning team after spending several years posting numbers on losing squads. 76ers of basketball operations Daryl Morey called him a <a href="https://x.com/BySamDiGiovanni/status/1787534164264104391" rel="noopener">“breath of fresh air”</a> and, based on the timing of Oubre’s dea, made it a priority to bring him back.</p><p>“Kelly was one of our most important contributors last season, bringing physicality, energy, and toughness to the table on a nightly basis,” Morey said in the announcement of Oubre’s new contract. “We’re excited to have him back and believe he’ll play a key role in our pursuit of a championship.”</p><p>Oubre said it usually takes two or three years to become comfortable on a team. But with the Sixers, he felt at home in less than a full season. Despite some bumps in the road along the way, none bigger than he was hit by a car and missed nearly a month, Oubre quickly became <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/sixers-news-kelly-oubre-jr-reveals-why-he-feels-like-hes-finally-in-the-nba-now">enamored with the organization</a> that allowed him to bet on himself.</p><p>Although his new two-year, $16 million deal isn’t groundbreaking, it’s a massive step up from the minimum deal he took last September. Knowing so early in the offseason where he’ll be playing puts his mind at ease.</p><p>“Well, there were definitely options on the table,” Oubre said of his 2024 free agency, “and options that are closer to the ballpark of where I’ve been working towards getting to. But at the end of the day, man, it’s all about situations. It’s all about fit. It’s about the people that I’m working with and I’m working for.”</p><p>The 76ers asked a lot of Oubre last season. He was one of their primary defenders and often had to be the third source of scoring depending on how well Tobias Harris was playing on any particular night. Now with Paul George and Caleb Martin, the Sixers’ dependence on Oubre can be more fitting for a typical role player.</p><p>Oubre pointed to Martin as someone he’s excited to team up with. He called himself “a triplet” with Caleb and his twin brother Cody, who he played with on the Charlotte Hornets, and recalled when the twins beat him in the high school national tournament. Philly’s 2024-25 squad features some newcomers in Martin, Andre Drummond, Eric Gordon, Jared McCain, and Adem Bona along with some familiar faces in Kyle Lowry, KJ Martin, and Ricky Council IV.</p><p>When asked about the 76ers’ new Big 3 of Embiid, Maxey and George, Oubre responded that Philly actually has “a Big 12, Big 15.” He joked that he didn’t like the highlighting of the All-Star trio because it excluded him.</p><p>“At the end of the day, all great players, man. We all know what each of them brings to the table,” Oubre said. “But at the end of the day, it’s about how we all mesh together. I have to make them look good and I hope that we can all just do the same for each other. But the sky’s the limit, man. The sky’s the limit and we’ll be ready to continue to attack from all angles.”</p><p>Oubre’s riff about the Big Number of players raises a point that a highly talented trio isn’t enough to truly contend for the championship. A trio of stars is great but doesn’t mean as much if the players around them are too unreliable. A Big 3 can only go as high as the remaining 12 will allow them. Of those 12 for the Sixers, Oubre is going to be one of the most important.</p><h2><b>Kelly Oubre Jr. excited to team up with Paul George on 76ers</b></h2><figure><img src="https://wp.clutchpoints.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/07/Kelly-Oubre-Jr-shoots-over-Paul-George.jpg"><figcaption>© Bill Streicher-USA TODAY Sports</figcaption></figure><p>Oubre and George have had their share of incidents over the years where one player <a href="https://x.com/EmbiidIsHere/status/1807865325712797981" rel="noopener">gets the best of the other</a> — a nasty crossover, a posterizing dunk, a swatted shot — and then lets the other know. Nothing followed in each incident but this has happened enough times to spark inquiries about whether they hold any animosity toward one another. But Oubre dispelled any rumblings about beef right away.</p><p>“Obviously, everybody wants to talk about a beef or whatever. There’s never been a beef. It’s just been two competitors who respect each other on the court and we just try to go at it really hard,” Oubre said. “So now that we’re on the same team, we can do that to other people. So, I’m excited.”</p><p>George instantly makes the Sixers <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/nba-power-rankings-2024-25-paul-george-major-free-agency-moves" rel="noopener">much more dangerous</a> even at age 34. He has a lot to offer Philly in terms of both production on the court and lessons and tips to help his teammates improve. Oubre sounds like he’ll be one of George’s main pupils from the jump.</p><p>“I’m really excited. I’ve always studied this game. I’ve always been a fan from afar,” Oubre said. “To be able to get bits and pieces and nuggets from him, learn his game a little bit, and inspire him. I think we offer different things but we both can feed and learn off of each other. I’m really excited, man, to learn from him and help him do his thing and with the rest of his career that he has left.”</p><p>On his show, Podcast P, George echoed many of the same sentiments Oubre did. He said that he’s looking forward to helping Oubre grow his game and that he’s “one of those players I look forward to competing against.”</p><figure class="op-interactive"><blockquote class="twitter-tweet"><p dir="ltr" lang="en">Some new &amp; familiar faces PG is excited to team up with, including Kelly Oubre 🤝 <a href="https://t.co/ZWANBvcN4G">pic.twitter.com/ZWANBvcN4G</a></p><p>— Podcast P with Paul George (@PodcastPShow) <a href="https://twitter.com/PodcastPShow/status/1811096481719537949?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">July 10, 2024</a></p></blockquote><p><script async="" src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script></p></figure><p>Oubre’s ability to attack the paint should be unlocked even more with the additional spacing George will provide. Being the worst three-point shooter in the expected starting lineup (him, Caleb Martin, and the three stars) means he will have to be more productive in other areas. Among the ways he’s looking to improve from last season is to “get my percentages up” and “polish my game up,” explaining the two biggest factors in what could be his next step forward.</p><p>“I would say confidence and shot selection, that’s two of the biggest things for me,” he explained. “Just shooting the right ones and not just shooting ones. I think every shot that I shoot is gonna go in because I’m sure all hoops feel that way — but it doesn’t go that way, obviously. But, yeah, just shot selection and staying disciplined and focusing on shooting the right shots.”</p><p>Oubre disclosed that he had been dealing with minor shoulder issues over the past few seasons.

Oubre was a heralded recruit in high school and turned himself into an NBA regular and will be <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/76ers-news-kelly-oubre-jr-16-3-million-contract-free-agency">returning to the Philadelphia 76ers</a> in 2024-25. Let’s look at Kelly Oubre Jr.’s net worth in 2024.</p><h2><b>What is Kelly Oubre Jr.’s net worth in 2024?: $5 million (estimate)</b></h2><figure><img src="https://wp.clutchpoints.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/09/Kelly-Oubre-Jr.s-net-worth-in-2024-2.jpg"></figure><p>Oubre Jr.’s NBA career may not have been as successful as he would have liked coming out of college. However, he has earned numerous contracts with differing levels of value. Kelly Oubre Jr.’s net worth in 2024 <a href="https://www.sportskeeda.com/basketball/kelly-oubre-jr-net-worth" rel="noopener">sits at about $5 million</a>, according to Sportskeeda.</p><p>Oubre was born on Dec. 9, 1995, in New Orleans. He attended George Bush High School in Fort Bend, Texas, but transferred to Findlay Prep in Henderson, Nev. his senior season. Oubre was a five-star recruit and high school All-American by USA Today. He committed to playing with the Kansas Jayhawks for the 2014 season.</p><h2><b>Kelly Oubre Jr.’s college career</b></h2><p>Oubre was a big factor in his one season at Kansas, playing in all 36 games and starting in 27. His defensive game shone in college, finishing second on the team in total rebounds and steals as a freshman.</p><p>He was also the highest scorer among all Kansas first-year players. At season’s end, he was on the Big 12 All-Newcomer Team. Oubre decided to forgo his last three years of college eligibility and declared for the NBA Draft.</p><h2><b>Kelly Oubre Jr.’s professional career</b></h2><p>The Atlanta Hawks selected Oubre with the 15th overall pick in the 2015 NBA draft. After selecting him, the Hawks traded Oubre’s rights to the Washington Wizards. The Wizards signed him to a four-year, $9.2 million entry-level contract. His best season with the Wizards came in 2017-18 when he averaged 11.8 points per game.</p><p>The following season, the Phoenix Suns acquired Oubre in a trade. His career took off with the Suns, as he raised his points-per-game average to career highs. The Suns signed Oubre to a two-year, $30 million contract extension.</p><p>Oubre would only last in Phoenix for one season as he was traded in the offseason twice. The Oklahoma City Thunder acquired him in a trade for Chris Paul, but he was flipped to the Golden State Warriors. Oubre took the opportunity in Golden State to prove his worth to the league and earn another contract, and he performed well enough to land a contract with the Charlotte Hornets in the offseason.</p><h2><b>Kelly Oubre Jr.’s best landing spot</b></h2><figure class="op-interactive"><blockquote class="twitter-tweet"><p dir="ltr" lang="en">“The heart of man plans his way, but the Lord establishes his steps.“     GOD$PEED, we good this way.

In his first year, he stayed close to his career average, 15 points per game and four rebounds.</p><p>The 2022-23 season was his best yet, with 20.3 points per game, 5.2 rebounds, and 1.4 steals. Unfortunately, some injury troubles with his left hand caused him to miss some time. His breakout season brought plenty of hope that he would earn another contract this offseason but talks remained stagnant.</p><p><a href="https://clutchpoints.com/sixers-news-kelly-oubre-jr-contract-james-harden" rel="noopener">Oubre signed a one-year deal</a> with the Philadelphia 76ers prior to the 2023-24 season. The 76ers needed some help on the wings after they traded superstar James Harden to the Los Angeles Clippers.</p><p>Oubre thrived in his first season in Philadelphia, averaging 15.4 points, 5.0 rebounds and 1.5 assists per game. The Sixers rewarded him by agreeing to a two-year, $16.3 million contract, which Oubre can opt out of after the season. Philadelphia will be looking for big things after the Sixers landed free agent Paul George and gave All-Star Tyrese Maxey a long-term contract.</p><h2><b>Kelly Oubre Jr. endorsements</b></h2><p>Oubre was an ambassador of adidas coming out of college, but his deal expired on Oct. 1, 2018.</p><p>In 2018, Converse signed Oubre to a <a href="https://www.espn.com/nba/story/_/id/25291151/nba-kelly-oubre-jr-signs-converse" rel="noopener">multiyear footwear and apparel</a> endorsement deal. The shoe deal was the first of its kind in the NBA. Oubre wore Nike basketball sneakers on the court but headlined the Converse brand casually.</p><p>Converse took the chance on Oubre, trying to capitalize on the merge of style and fashion in the NBA. Oubre had also taken interviews with Puma and New Balance during his shoe deal free agency but opted for the Nike subsidiary instead.</p><p>A stint with one of the most well-known franchises in the NBA could garner Oubre more traction in the endorsement game. A successful run on the court, playing with a good team in Philadelphia can also help him earn a lucrative contract this offseason. Nevertheless, was Kelly Oubre Jr.’s net worth in 2024 a surprise?</p><figure class="op-tracker"></figure></article>    </body></html>

The lefty’s dynamic play and ability to push the pace in transition were something that fit exactly what Philadelphia and head coach Nick Nurse were lacking in the team’s rotations.</p><p>As a result of his offensive contributions, Oubre ended up playing in a total of 68 games, 52 of which he started. He averaged 15.4 points and 5.0 rebounds per game while shooting 44.1 percent from the floor. Despite shooting only 31.1 percent from three-point range, the worst of his career, Oubre still managed to rank second on the team with 101 made threes, trailing only Maxey’s 212 made triples.</p><p>The news of Oubre remaining with the 76ers in free agency comes after <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/what-76ers-andre-drummond-eric-gordon-signings-mean-for-rotation">Philadelphia made moves</a> to bring in veterans Andre Drummond and Eric Gordon. Drummond signed a two-year, $10 million deal to return to the 76ers after two seasons with the Chicago Bulls. Gordon, who has long been a rumored target for the Sixers and has a prior relationship with executive Daryl Morey dating back to their days with the Houston Rockets, signed a one-year veteran’s minimum contract for around $3.3 million.</p><p>Aside from his scoring production, Oubre stood out in Philadelphia as a spark of energy. Whether he was in or out of the starting rotation, Oubre simply played hard, and his defensive contributions oftentimes went unnoticed. The 76ers recognized the production from the former 15th overall pick, which is why they have decided to dip into their cap space to re-sign him to a two-year deal that contains a player option for the 2025-26 season.</p><p>This option allows for Oubre to potentially opt out and earn more money next summer, while also giving the Sixers financial flexibility to make more moves alongside Embiid and Maxey.</p><h2><b>How Kelly Oubre Jr.’s contract impacts Sixers’ Paul George pursuit</b></h2><figure><img src="https://wp.clutchpoints.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/06/Paul-George-reacts-vs.-Mavericks-in-NBA-playoffs.jpg"><figcaption>Kevin Jairaj-USA TODAY Sports</figcaption></figure><p>The 76ers entered <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/nba-free-agency-2024-tracker">free agency</a> with the most flexibility when it came to adding talent to their roster and agreeing to new contracts. Embiid was the only player under contract with a guaranteed deal, which has allowed Morey and the Sixers’ brass to formulate a plan to bring in another All-Star-level talent in their pursuit of a championship. As a result, Paul George, who <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/clippers-news-la-puts-out-statement-explaining-paul-georges-departure">won’t be returning to the Los Angeles Clippers</a>, is expected to agree to terms on a max-level contract with the 76ers.</p><p>The good news regarding Oubre’s new deal is that this doesn’t impact the Sixers’ ability to pursue George in any way. Philadelphia entered the start of free agency on Sunday with over $60 million in practical cap space, allowing them to add talent to their roster while also eventually agreeing to terms on a new long-term max extension with Maxey.</p><p>After the Clippers came out and publicly said that George would not be returning to the organization, all indications quickly pointed in the 76ers’ direction. The 76ers were meeting with George on Sunday night in Los Angeles after his meeting with the Clippers at the start of free agency. As a result, there is a <a href="https://x.com/BrettSiegelNBA/status/1807647209128689723" rel="noopener">growing expectation</a> around the league that George will be offered the four-year, $212 max contract that he is seeking.</p><p>A potential trio of Maxey, George, and Embiid makes for arguably the best-scoring trio in the league based on their 83.2 combined points per game scoring average from the 2023-24 season. With other factors like Drummond, Gordon, and now Oubre in the mix, the only roadblock the 76ers may have to get over during the 2024-25 season to finally break their postseason curse is the injury bug.

In a series defined heavily by injuries on both sides, Oubre was the latest player to stick it out.</p><p>Oubre missed the pregame shootaround, as did Joel Embiid <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/76ers-news-joel-embiid-adds-migraine-to-list-of-health-woes-ahead-of-game-5-vs-knicks">due to a migraine</a>. The Sixers wing tallied 14 points, four rebounds and two steals, closing out the game as Tyrese Maxey saved the Sixers’ season with an unreal fourth quarter. Oubre admitted after the game that he was far from his best.</p><p>“Yeah, man, I feel like dog water right now. But even dogs drink it,” Oubre said. “I feel good, man. I’ve just been drinking a lot of water. I don’t really like taking medicine. I didn’t take medicine. I probably should have because I remember when ‘Rese was here, he said that he took medicine and he had the same thing that I was dealing with.“</p><figure class="op-interactive"><blockquote class="twitter-tweet"><p dir="ltr" lang="en">Kelly Oubre Jr on fighting through his illness to play:</p><p>“I feel like dogwater right now.

The Sixers ended up dropping that game in an epic collapse late in the fourth quarter. While Maxey is back to feeling better, his teammate on the wing has some more recovering to do.</p><p>Oubre may not have been feeling his best but he helped the 76ers stave off elimination on the road.</p><p>“But yeah, man, I feel okay,” he said. “I‘m gonna give it my all, my heart and my soul each and every time I step on the court. Fatigue was a factor. I had a little bruise on my leg from last game as well. That was a factor. But at the end of the day, man, just doing whatever I can, just scrap a little bit of whatever I can bring to the table to help us win. That was the goal tonight and I’m just happy that I could lean on my guys.”</p><p>Nick Nurse — who himself could be added to the injury report after <a href="https://x.com/ginamizell/status/1785722013568405835" rel="noopener">injuring his finger</a> — clearly trusted Oubre in a close game, playing him throughout the fourth quarter and overtime. His size and athleticism have been huge for the 76ers all season long.</p><p>“He did okay. He did okay. He was really struggling, laboring through some moments out there, as you guys probably saw,” Nurse said. “But when he finally got off the floor, he said, ‘Just gimme a few minutes and I’ll be ready to go back.’ So it was good. I mean, he worked hard and don’t think he feels great.”</p><p>Kelly Oubre Jr. will do what he can to get back to feeling closer to 100 percent before Game 6 back in Philadelphia on Thursday night.</p><figure class="op-tracker"></figure></article>    </body></html>
