Kelly Oubre Jr. Provides Wave of Scoring in Charlotte

Another new face in Buzz City this past season, sharp-shooting forward Kelly Oubre Jr. ripped off one of the most productive campaigns by a Charlotte reserve in franchise history.

Signed via free agency last August, Oubre averaged 15.0 points on 44.0% shooting – 34.5% from 3-point range – 4.0 rebounds, 1.1 assists and 1.0 steal in 76 appearances, 13 of which were starts. He also notched new career bests in both 2-point percentage (57.8%) and effective field-goal percentage (54.2%), helping him finish seventh overall in Sixth Man of the Year voting.

Additionally, Oubre drained a career-high 191 3-pointers, which was good for the 10th-highest total in team history and 20th-most overall in the NBA this year.
