Good to go Wednesday Oubre (illness/injury management) is available for Wednesday's game against the Cavaliers, Kyle Neubeck of AllPHLY.com reports.

Impact Oubre was a late addition to the injury report but will be available Wednesday. Since returning Jan. 7 from a 22-game absence due to a left knee sprain, the forward is averaging 5.5 points, 4.5 rebounds, 1.5 steals and 1.0 blocks in 24.8 minutes per game over the past four contests (one start).

Now probable Wednesday Oubre is probable for Wednesday's game against the Cavaliers due to an illness.

Impact Considering the 76ers didn't include Oubre on their initial injury report, the forward presumably woke up Wednesday a bit under the weather. Oubre remains likely to play, having averaged 5.5 points, 4.5 rebounds, 1.5 steals and 1.0 blocks in 24.6 minutes per contest in his last four games.

Production falls off in win Oubre ended with seven points (3-7 FG, 1-2 3Pt) and four rebounds over 30 minutes during Monday's 115-102 victory over Toronto.

Impact Oubre was unable to replicate his production from the previous night, failing to have a major impact despite the win. As long as the 76ers are relatively healthy, Oubre is likely to serve as the fourth or even fifth option on the offensive end. Managers should not view him as a must-roster player.

Not starting Monday Oubre won't start against the Raptors on Monday.

Impact With Paul George back in the lineup following a one-game absence due to left knee soreness, Oubre will slide to the second unit. The 30-year-old forward has appeared in three outings (one start) following a 22-game absence due to a left knee sprain. During that span, he has averaged 5.0 points, 4.7 rebounds, 2.0 steals and 1.3 blocks in 23.0 minutes per tilt.

Showcases defense in late start Oubre logged 13 points (5-10 FG, 1-3 3Pt, 2-2 FT), five rebounds, four steals and three blocks over 34 minutes during the 76ers' 116-115 overtime loss to the Raptors on Sunday.

Impact Oubre was thrust into the 76ers' starting lineup minutes before the 6:00 p.m. ET tipoff after Paul George was scratched late due to a knee injury. While Maxey (38 points) handled things offensively, Oubre stepped up in a big way on the defensive side of the floor, finishing with season highs in both steals and blocks. Oubre could remain in the starting lineup in Monday's rematch against Toronto if George is not cleared to return.

Starting Sunday Oubre is in the starting lineup for Sunday's matchup with the Raptors.

Impact Paul George (knee) was initially listed in the starting lineup, but he was suddenly ruled out minutes before tipoff with Oubre being announced as his replacement. Oubre has been quiet since returning from a knee injury that forced him to spend nearly two months on the sidelines, but he'll have some time to shine as a starter Sunday. Joining him in the first unit will be Tyrese Maxey, VJ Edgecombe, Dominick Barlow and Andre Drummond.

Tepid production in return Oubre (knee) registered two points (1-4 FG, 0-2 3Pt), three assists, two steals and one assist across 20 minutes Wednesday in the 76ers' 131-110 win over the Wizards.

Impact Oubre had started in each of the 76ers' first 12 games on the season, but after missing 22 consecutive contests due to a left knee sprain before gaining clearance to play Wednesday, the veteran wing came off the bench and operated with a heavy minutes restriction. After averaging 16.8 points per game prior to getting hurt, Oubre took on a much more muted role on offense in his return, handling a season-low 8.8 percent usage rate. Oubre could still see his minutes and usage pick up a bit in future contests, but he'll likely struggle to return to his pre-injury level of production now that Paul George has been back to full health for a while now after he had been sidelined for the first 12 games of the season.

Set to face Washington Oubre (knee) is available for Wednesday's game against Washington.

Impact Oubre, though available, will be under a heavy minutes restriction. The veteran wing hasn't appeared in a game since Nov. 14. He started in each of his first 14 appearances this season, but he may come off the bench as the 76ers ease him back into action.

JANUARY 7 • ROTOWIRE

Upgraded to probable Oubre (knee) has been upgraded to probable for Wednesday's game against the Wizards.

Impact Oubre, who hasn't played since mid-November, is on track to return for Wednesday's game. He'll likely have some heavy minutes restrictions in his first game back, but he was playing very well before going down, so make sure he's not floating around on your waiver wire. Oubre's return will likely result in fewer minutes for Quentin Grimes.

Questionable for Wednesday Oubre (knee) is listed as questionable for Wednesday's game against the Wizards.

Impact Oubre hasn't played since Nov. 14 due to a sprained LCL in his left knee, though he has been upgraded to questionable and there's a chance he will return Wednesday. If the veteran forward is cleared to play, he'll likely operate under a minutes restriction. Oubre has appeared in 12 regular-season games thus far, averaging 16.8 points, 5.1 rebounds, 1.3 assists and 1.1 steals across 34.8 minutes per tilt.

Ruled out for Monday Oubre (knee) won't play Monday versus the Nuggets.

Impact Oubre was recently cleared for full-contact, 5-on-5 work, which is often the last step in the rehab process. While Oubre won't play Monday, he does appear to be close, so perhaps he'll be able to get back out there for Wednesday's game versus the Wizards.

JANUARY 4 • ROTOWIRE

Cleared for 5-on-5 work Oubre (knee) has been cleared to return to 5-on-5 work in practice, Adam Aaronson of PhillyVoice.com reports.

Impact Oubre hasn't played since Nov. 14 due to a sprained LCL in his left knee, though he's seemingly getting close to a return to game action. His next opportunity to play will come Monday against the Nuggets. The veteran swingman has appeared in 12 regular-season games thus far, averaging 16.8 points, 5.1 rebounds, 1.3 assists and 1.1 steals across 34.8 minutes per tilt. However, it wouldn't be surprising to see him operate under a minutes restriction whenever he's cleared to return.

JANUARY 3 • ROTOWIRE

Won't play Saturday Oubre (knee) has been ruled out for Saturday's game against the Knicks.

Impact There was an outside chance that Oubre would return at some point during the 76ers' five-game road trip that concludes Saturday, but the veteran forward will not return in New York. His next chance to play is Monday at home against the Nuggets, though it's unclear whether he'll have recovered enough from a left knee sprain to return against Denver.

JANUARY 2 • ROTOWIRE

Ruled out for Thursday Oubre (knee) has been ruled out for Thursday's game against the Mavericks.

Impact Oubre will miss his 20th consecutive contest due to a left knee sprain and is without a clear target date for a return. He should be considered doubtful for Saturday's game against the Knicks until the 76ers offer an update on his status.

Impact Oubre participated in 3-on-3 work Tuesday and is expected to be re-evaluated before Thursday's contest against the Mavericks. The veteran swingman hasn't played since Nov. 14 due to a sprained LCL in his left knee, though he appears to be inching closer to a return. The Sixers are expected to provide an update on Oubre's status by Wednesday night.

Remains out indefinitely Oubre (knee) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Thunder.

Impact Oubre hasn't played since Nov. 14 due to a sprained LCL in his left knee and is still without a clear timeline for a return. He should be considered week-to-week moving forward.
