76ers' Kelly Oubre: Leads Philly in scoring Friday
Oubre provided 28 points (9-17 FG, 3-6 3Pt, 7-8 FT), two rebounds, two assists and two steals in 39 minutes during Friday's 115-107 loss to the Raptors.Oubre has been the biggest beneficiary of the absences of Joel Embiid (knee) and Paul George (knee), as he's opened the season as the No. 2 option on offense. The veteran forward has performed as such, scoring over 20 points in both contests and shooting 17-for-35 from the field combined. Oubre should continue to experience an uptick in his fantasy upside for as long as George and Embiid remain out.

76ers' Kelly Oubre: Goes for 21 points in loss
Oubre ended with 21 points (8-18 FG, 1-6 3Pt, 4-6 FT), two rebounds and one assist over 30 minutes during Wednesday's 124-109 loss to Milwaukee.Oubre moved to small forward with Paul George (knee) out and made the most of the opportunity, reaching the 20-point plateau despite struggling a bit with his shot and overall efficiency. Oubre figures to be a regular for the Philadelphia 76ers all season long, even when the Sixers will be at full strength, but he should see more touches -- and thus, have considerably more upside in fantasy -- as long as George and Joel Embiid (knee) remain sidelined.

76ers' Kelly Oubre: Leads Phiiladelphia in scoring
Oubre posted 18 points (5-8 FG, 2-3 3Pt, 6-7 FT), two rebounds and an assist across 21 minutes in Wednesday's 117-95 preseason win over the Nets.Oubre led the way offensively for a Philadelphia 76ers team missing Joel Embiid (knee) and Paul George (knee). Even though he figures to see a minor role on offense when the team is at full strength, he can step up and embrace a more significant role whenever one of the stars is missing, which might be often considering Embiid's potential resting schedule and injury history, as well as George's own injury concerns. Oubre featured in 68 regular-season games (52 starts) for the 76ers last year and averaged 15.4 points, 5.0 rebounds, 1.5 assists and 1.1 steals over 30.2 minutes per game.

76ers' Kelly Oubre: Struggles from deep vs. Atlanta
Oubre logged 14 points (4-12 FG, 1-8 3Pt, 5-6 FT), three rebounds, one assist and one steal over 27 minutes in Monday's 104-89 preseason win over the Hawks.Despite missing seven of eight three-point attempts Monday, Oubre co-led with Tyrese Maxey in scoring and the former played a game-high 27 minutes. Paul George didn't return for the second half of Monday's contest after injuring his left knee, and Oubre would be the beneficiary in regards to more opportunities on the offensive end of the floor if George were to be sidelined for the early portion of the 2024-25 regular season. Oubre appeared in 68 regular-season games (52 starts) for the Philadelphia 76ers last year and averaged 15.4 points, 5.0 rebounds, 1.5 assists and 1.1 steals over 30.2 minutes per game.
