Fri Mar 07 02:10:00 UTC 2025: **76ers’ Oubre Ruled Out Against Blazers, Day-to-Day Status for Timberwolves Game**
PHILADELPHIA, PA – Philadelphia 76ers forward Kelly Oubre Jr. was unexpectedly ruled out of Monday night’s game against the Portland Trail Blazers due to illness. Oubre, who had been listed as available earlier in the day, was downgraded to questionable hours before tip-off and ultimately missed the game, which resulted in a Sixers loss.
Oubre, known for his reliability this season, had played in 26 consecutive games prior to this absence, averaging 17 points, 7 rebounds, 2 assists, 2 steals, and 1 block during that stretch. His last absence was a three-game stint in early January.
Despite missing the Blazers game, Oubre is expected to travel with the team for their Tuesday night matchup against the Minnesota Timberwolves. Coach Nick Nurse described his status as day-to-day, leaving open the possibility of his return. His official injury status for the Timberwolves game has yet to be released.
