Kelly Oubre Jr
November 2025

Philadelphia forward Kelly Oubre Jr. is expected to miss a minimum of two weeks after an MRI revealed a sprain to the lateral collateral ligament in his left knee, forcing him to pause an impressive start to the season as a key starter. Oubre hyperextended his knee against Detroit, and further tests confirmed ligament damage that now joins Joel Embiid and Paul George’s knee issues on a concerning Sixers injury list, stripping out a 16.8-point, 5.1-rebound contributor who was logging heavy minutes on the wing.
