PHI • Forward-Guard • #9
7 days ago
Oubre continues to provide excellent fantasy value, and according to Basketball Monster, he’s approaching the top-25 in nine-cat formats. While the rebounds were limited on Tuesday, the Tsunami Papi was efficient offensively and recorded four “stocks.” Oubre’s rostered in 42 percent of Yahoo! leagues and is worth adding until Paul George (knee) returns and can take on a full workload. However, fantasy managers who already have Oubre should consider selling high.

Oubre put on a show during the first quarter of Sunday’s game, scoring 22 points on 9-of-12 shooting from the field. Cam Thomas was guarding him for most of that run, and Thomas has never been known for his defensive ability. Oubre was comparatively quiet for the rest of the night, but the damage had been done. The only negative was that he tweaked his ankle during the second half. While Oubre could have returned, there was no need to risk it with the 76ers up big. The “Tsunami Papi” continues to exceed expectations in fantasy basketball, providing top-50 value in nine-cat formats. The 76ers play four games during Week 3, and Oubre’s value will remain high for as long as Paul George and Jared McCain are out.

While Tyrese Maxey and VJ Edgecombe (14/6/4/1 with four three-pointers) have received most of the attention for Philadelphia’s 4-0 start, Oubre’s production has been valuable. He’s scored 17 points or more in three of the four games, recording his second consecutive double-double on Tuesday. The eventual return of Paul George (knee) may impact Oubre’s usage, but he’ll remain a fixture in the starting lineup. He’s only rostered in 22 percent of Yahoo! leagues. And with the Sixers playing twice within the final three days of Week 2, Oubre makes for a solid add before Friday’s games.

While Oubre only shot 2-of-8 from the field in Thursday’s preseason opener, he recorded a complete stat line. The Tsunami Papi’s versatility was again on display Saturday, and he shot the ball better from the field. Oubre was an uncharacteristically poor 1-of-4 from the foul line, but that should not generate too much concern. Even with a healthy Tyrese Maxey, Paul George and Joel Embiid in the fold, fantasy managers should avoid undervaluing Oubre. He’s worth the risk as a late-round pick, even in standard league drafts.

Sunday was deadline day for Oubre, who has decided to exercise his player option worth $8.4 million. The veteran wing has provided solid value in both seasons with the 76ers, most recently averaging 15.1 points, 6.1 rebounds, 1.8 assists, 1.5 steals and 1.2 three-pointers per game in 2024-25. While Oubre did offer solid fantasy value last season, the 76ers stand to be deeper on the perimeter next season with Jared McCain (knee) being healthy and lottery pick VJ Edgecombe joining the team. Also, the 76ers are expected to do whatever they can to re-sign Quentin Grimes once he hits restricted free agency on Monday.

While Saturday’s game will be the second straight missed by Lowry, the 76ers have been without Oubre since March 12. For Philadelphia, these final games are about improving their draft lottery odds, as the 76ers’ first-round pick is only top-6 protected. Expect plenty of Quentin Grimes and Justin Edwards as Philadelphia plays out the remainder of its schedule.

Oubre continues to deal with a knee injury that will keep him out for an 11th straight game. Lowry will also be out Thursday against the Bucks as he continues to manage a hip injury. Justin Edwards will continue to have a significant role with Oubre out.

This will be a fifth-straight absence for Oubre Jr., which means that Justin Edwards will remain in the starting lineup once again. Ricky Council IV will also play a significant role off the bench.

Oubre is set to miss his fourth-straight game with a knee injury. Ricky Council IV should continue to start in his absence while Jalen Hood-Schifino sees additional minutes off the bench.

Oubre has missed Philadelphia’s last three games with a knee injury and appears likely to miss Wednesday’s game as well. Ricky Council IV has replaced him in the starting lineup, and deep-league managers should not overlook Jalen Hood-Schifino coming off the bench.

Oubre will miss a second straight game with a knee injury, meaning more playing time for Justin Edwards and Ricky Council IV. With the 76ers light on available bodies, both will be worthy of deep-leagues streaming consideration for Sunday night.

Oubre joins the many 76ers rotation players who will not play in Friday’s game. Expect to see a lot of Jared Butler, Jeff Dowtin and Ricky Council IV, and Jalen Hood-Schifino will also be available. Butler and Dowtin are worth a roll of the dice in deep leagues.

Oubre, already recovering from an ankle injury, has been added to Friday’s injury report with a sprained right knee. With Quentin Grimes (illness) also questionable and Tyrese Maxey and Paul George out, the 76ers’ perimeter rotation could be extremely light for Friday’s game. Ricky Council IV, Jeff Dowtin Jr. and Jared Butler would all figure more prominently within the rotation if Oubre and Grimes cannot play.

Oubre Jr. sat out the second night of Philadelphia’s back-to-back when they took on Atlanta on Monday. Lonnie Walker IV entered the starting unit in his place and contributed 11 points, five rebounds and five assists. He should draw another start if Oubre Jr. remains out, and Justin Edwards should be in line for extra minutes and usage.

Oubre Jr. and Lonnie Walker IV (17 points, five triples) were the lone bright spots for the Sixers in an otherwise putrid performance. Philly’s other four starters combined for just 33 points, and Philly dropped its 41st game in blowout fashion. With the Sixers already looking ahead to next season, we’re unlikely to see much of Tyrese Maxey or Paul George for the rest of the campaign, which means Oubre Jr. could see big minutes and usage down the stretch. The games might not mean anything for the Sixers in real life, but Oubre Jr. could post meaningful numbers for fantasy managers during “silly season.”

After missing Monday’s game due to an illness, Oubre was able to pick up where he left off in his last appearance. Oubre has scored at least 20 points in his last three games, and he will continue to be a focal point of the offense for the rest of the season. With Joel Embiid done for the year and Tyrese Maxey and Paul George battling injuries, it wouldn’t be surprising if the 76ers relied on Oubre and Quentin Grimes to lead the team in scoring over the final month of the year.

Oubre Jr. missed Monday’s game against the Trail Blazers with an illness. The 29-year-old small forward seems likely to return to the 76ers’ rotation Tuesday given his probable listing.

Oubre Jr.’s absence means Philly will be down yet another key rotational player. In his absence, expect Guerschon Yabusele and Justin Edwards to see extra playing time. Quentin Grimes is also in line for additional responsibilities on offense.

Oubre is a late addition to the injury report, which puts his status for Monday’s game in serious question. If he were to miss the match with Portland, Guerschon Yabusele and Justin Edwards would both take on larger roles, with one of them sliding into the starting lineup.

In an infuriating season for 76ers fans, Oubre has been one of the few bright spots. And he’s come through for fantasy managers recently, providing sixth-round value in eight-cat formats over the past three weeks. Oubre scored 19 points in the first half of Wednesday’s loss, keeping the 76ers within striking distance before Tyrese Maxey got going (inside the arc, at least) after halftime. Oubre is rostered in 67 percent of Yahoo! leagues, and that number may increase if Joel Embiid (knee) gets shut down for the rest of the season.
