On paper, with his one-year contract at just two million dollars, Kelly Oubre Jr. had the profile of a good pick at the start of the season. On the field, this intuition was confirmed, with solid performances from the winger, who averaged 15.4 points and 5 rebounds, starting 52 times.
A good season therefore, perfect in terms of timing since he will be free during the offseason. What are his ambitions when negotiating a new contract? “I just want to be loved. I want to go where I am respected and loved. Here in Philadelphia, it's clear that I've had nothing but love.” he explains.
Staying with the Sixers is therefore the priority for the winger, especially after this first round lost against the Knicks.
“I feel like there is work to be done and a lot of work ahead to get better and get back to where the fans have been waiting for us for a long time. But we failed because we did not take this step. »
According to ESPN, Tobias Harris will not return next season. The Sixers will therefore have greenbacks to put on Kelly Oubre Jr. Especially since the latter is enthusiastic about the idea of playing again under the orders of Nick Nurse.
” Oh yes. He is the best coach I have ever played for,” assures the Philadelphia player. “He’s so smart. He's a real rockstar and I can get used to it, also because he coaches me in a direct and tough way. He knows what he expects of me and I have to exceed expectations, as I have always tried to do. »
