Through the start of the 2023-24 NBA season, Oubre had made a case as one of the best value free-agent signings of the offseason.

The forward was a late addition to the 76ers roster, and through eight games played this season, has averaged 16.3 points on 50% shooting from the field, while averaging 5.1 rebounds per game and knocking down a career-best 37.8% of his attempts from three-point range.
