The 25-year-old was having a solid year with the Golden State Warriors last season before it was cut short by a smll avulsion fracture that kept him out of the final weeks leading up to the play-in tournament.</p><p>Oubre ended up averaging 15.4 points and 6.0 rebounds per game while shooting 43.9% from the field. The respectable shooting clip was more impressive given the fact that Oubre struggled from the three-point line last season. Hopefully he can turn things around from downtown with the Hornets.</p><p>Charlotte has lost a couple of key contributors this free agency in Devonte’ Graham and Malik Monk from the wing spots. Adding a guy like Oubre allows them to play bigger, especially with a supersized point guard in LaMelo Ball expected to run the show.

After an impressive 2019-2020 campaign, his numbers across the board dropped in the Bay Area as he clearly had a challenging time adjusting to his new role under head coach Steve Kerr. With Klay Thompson coming back next season and guys like Andrew Wiggins proving their worth, there might be <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/warriors-news-kelly-oubre-jr-reveals-true-feelings-on-steve-kerr-bench-demotion-remark/">little to no space</a> for a player like Oubre in the upcoming season. As it seems, the best option for him at this point in his career might be to move cities.</p><p>Despite his struggles, Oubre is still one heck of a player though. His upside is clearly still there and he can be one of the best two-way players in the league in the right system. A young, fast-paced team like the Hornets should be perfect for someone like Oubre. The lefty will add a ton of toughness in Charlotte as they continue to build around the reigning ROTY in LaMelo Ball.</p><figure class="op-tracker"></figure></article>    </body></html>

The Warriors swingman then talked about the legacy of the franchise and how players like him desire to play for teams with “great legacies.”</p><blockquote>“The legacy of New York speaks for itself….This generation, the way everything is now, there aren’t challenges being taken….But at the end of the day, that’s what the game is about. It’s about playing for teams with great legacies,” Oubre explained.</blockquote><p>Is Kelly Oubre Jr. already endearing himself to Knicks fans with that statement?</p><p>Well, it’s certainly something Knicks fans want to hear, especially after years of failed attempts to contend. It also sets him up nicely if ever he decided to join New York, but his remarks did not really indicate if he wants to move to the Big Apple.</p><p>For what it’s worth, it has been reported previously that the Knicks have <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/knicks-5-reasons-why-kelly-oubre-jr-new-york-makes-sense/" rel="noopener">interest</a> in bringing in the Warriors player should they be able to swing a deal for Damian Lillard or Bradley Beal. Per <a href="https://www.nydailynews.com/sports/basketball/knicks/ny-knicks-kelly-oubre-jr-20210630-jkdawjukqrhjba67iasenp5pxa-story.html" rel="noopener">Kristian Winfield of the New York Daily News</a>:</p><blockquote>The source says the Knicks are specifically interested in adding Oubre in the event they are successful acquiring a star guard via trade. The acquisition would create a more complete roster alongside Most Improved Player Julius Randle.</blockquote><p>Will Oubre join the Knicks in free agency? It will depend on the money and role offered to him, but it will no longer be surprising if he chooses to be part of New York’s “great” legacy.</p><figure class="op-tracker"></figure></article>    </body></html>
