Kelly Oubre’s development has been a bright spot for the Wizards in a dim season

In a season defined by maddening inconsistency, one surprising source of strong play for the Washington Wizards has their 2015 first round pick, Kelly Oubre Jr.

Oubre has been a lightning rod among fans and media from the day he walked across the stage at the NBA Draft in Christian Louboutin shoes. His name gets brought up a lot as a player the Wizards can use in a trade to dump salary or get back a player who can take Washington to the next level. Both of these ideas are short-sighted in my opinion; his growth has been the biggest bright spot on what otherwise has been an underwhelming start to the regular season for the Wizards.
