Nick Nurse: Kelly Oubre Jr. is expected to return Wednesday against the Wizards. He’s looked good.
If everyone’s healthy, plan to bring Oubre in early off the bench, play him significant minutes right away. – 12:47 PM

More on this storyline
But in his first media availability since Nov. 11, the day he suffered a broken rib in the reported accident, Oubre said little about the circumstances surrounding it. “First and foremost … I want to say thank you to my family, my friends, the 76ers organization, especially Coach Nurse for the utmost support throughout this whole process,” he said. “But I’ve spoken to the police about this situation and they have an ongoing investigation. So I’ve spoken to whom I need to speak to about it and I’ll keep it … the way it is. “I won’t be speaking in any detail about that because they’re looking into it.” -via The Philadelphia Inquirer / December 5, 2023
The footage did not include a time-stamp and The Inquirer could not independently verify when it was taken. Law enforcement sources with knowledge of the case said Oubre did not mention a bicycle in his initial account. The sources said Oubre and his representatives have declined to provide more information to police. -via The Philadelphia Inquirer / December 5, 2023
