Oubre ended Saturday's 114-102 loss to the Nuggets with two points (1-5 FG, 0-3 3Pt), one rebound and two blocks across 16 minutes.
Oubre returned after missing the previous two games due to a calf injury. While the fact that he only missed two games is a positive, his on-court production has been the complete opposite. He finished with a season-low two points, continuing what has been an underwhelming start to his career in Indiana. Through eight appearances, he has averaged just 8.5 points and 0.9 three-pointers in 22.3 minutes per game.

Rotowire
Oubre will come off the bench in Monday's game against the Hawks, Tony East of Forbes.com reports.
Oubre will revert to a reserve role after most recently starting in Sunday's 98-90 loss to Brooklyn. The Pacers will have just eight players active, so he should still see ample playing time off the bench.

Rotowire
Oubre finished with 15 points (5-10 FG, 1-4 3Pt, 4-4 FT), three rebounds, one assist and one block in 30 minutes during Wednesday's 114-109 loss to the 76ers.
Oubre provided efficient secondary scoring for Indiana, reaching double figures while shooting 50 percent from the field. The veteran wing logged 30 minutes and finished as one of five Pacers to score at least 13 points. His playing time gives him opportunities to contribute in multiple categories, though his modest rebounding and defensive production limited his overall fantasy impact Wednesday.

Pacers' Kelly Oubre: Struggles despite start
Rotowire
Oubre finished with four points (2-5 FG, 0-2 3Pt) and two rebounds in 16 minutes during Friday's 128-127 preseason loss to the Bucks.
Oubre remained in the starting lineup, although he failed to deliver in any way, shapre or form. While it has been a decent preseason for Oubre, the simple fact is that his production can be sporadic, making him a tough player to roster with any confidence. He will almost certainly play a major role off the bench for his new team, likely flirting with 27 minutes on most nights. However, poor efficiency and a lack of consistent peripheral production makes him nothing more than a stream-level player.

Pacers' Kelly Oubre: Records 12 points in start
Rotowire
Oubre finished with 12 points (4-9 FG, 2-5 3Pt, 2-2 FT), five rebounds, two assists and one steal across 20 minutes in Tuesday's 114-112 preseason loss to Oklahoma City.
With Aaron Nesmith (rest), Andrew Nembhard (rest) and T.J. McConnell (undisclosed) all sidelined, Oubre drew the start and helped fill the scoring void. The veteran wing has now reached double figures in consecutive preseason appearances, giving Indiana another perimeter option as it sorts through its backcourt and wing rotation.

Pacers' Kelly Oubre: Drains three triples in loss
Rotowire
Oubre registered 13 points (5-8 FG, 3-5 3Pt) and a rebound across 20 minutes in Saturday's 119-117 preseason loss to the Hawks.
The veteran wing, who started in place of Tyrese Haliburton (rest), provided valuable floor spacing for Indiana's starting unit, finishing with a plus-5 rating. His contributions were primarily concentrated on scoring, as he recorded no assists, steals or blocks, but his shooting efficiency stood out during his limited playing time. Oubre's ability to knock down perimeter shots should help Indiana generate offense throughout the season, and while he's ticketed for a bench role to open the season, he should remain a valuable fantasy contributor thanks to his scoring prowess.

Pacers' Kelly Oubre: Agrees to sign with Pacers
Rotowire
Oubre agreed to a two-year deal worth nearly $17 million to sign with the Pacers on Wednesday, per Shams Charania of ESPN.
After spending the past three years with the 76ers, Oubre is heading to Indiana for his 11th NBA season. The veteran swingman averaged 14.1 points, 5.0 rebounds, 1.6 assists, 1.4 steals and 1.7 three-pointers in 31.5 minutes per tilt over 50 games during the regular season, shooting a career-high 36.0 percent from deep for Philadelphia in 2025-26. All signs point toward Tyrese Haliburton (Achilles) being ready for the start of the new year, which could mean Oubre will have to settle for a reserve role.

76ers' Kelly Oubre: Wraps up solid campaign
Rotowire
Oubre closed Sunday's 144-114 loss to the Knicks in Game 4 of the Eastern Conference Semifinals with 10 points (4-6 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 2-3 FT) and four rebounds over 26 minutes.
Oubre hit double-digit scoring figures Sunday for the eighth time in 11 postseason games. The veteran forward is an unrestricted free agent this offseason and should garner plenty of attention on the open market. Oubre averaged 14.1 points, 5.0 rebounds, 1.6 assists, 1.4 steals and 1.7 three-pointers in 31.5 minutes per tilt over 50 games during the regular season, shooting a career-high 36.0 percent from deep.

After pouring in 19 points in Game 2, Oubre one-upped himself Friday with a postseason-high scoring tally that also paced the 76ers on the night. With Philadelphia one loss away from elimination, it's unknown if head coach Nick Nurse will make adjustments heading into Game 4 on Sunday. If not, Oubre should continue to log heavy minutes, keeping him relevant for fantasy managers.

With Joel Embiid (ankle/hip) sidelined, Oubre saw a bump in usage Wednesday and put together a solid all-around line. He has struggled in the postseason overall, however, as he's shooting 24.2 percent from beyond the arc across nine games.

76ers' Kelly Oubre: Gets back on track
Rotowire
Oubre logged 14 points (6-11 FG, 1-3 3Pt, 1-2 FT), nine rebounds, one assist, two blocks and two steals across 39 minutes during Thursday's 106-93 win over the Celtics in Game 6 of the first round of the Eastern Conference playoffs.
Oubre had been held to a combined six points between Game 4 and Game 5, but he found a way to make an impact on both ends in Game 6. The Kansas product also had a strong night on the boards, falling one rebound shy of a double-double. The Sixers would gladly take a similar performance from Oubre in Game 7 on Saturday as they look to advance to the next round.
