Based on his career-best season (20.2 points, 5.1 rebounds and 1.6 steals on average, but “only” 42% on shots and 31% at 3-pts), Kelly Oubre Jr. was coping with a left hand injury, contracted in the first week of competition.
Finally, a little over two months later, the winger of the Hornets has decided to have an operation for his torn ligament in his left hand and he will miss, as a result, the next four to six weeks of competition.
A big blow for Charlotte, who has not been injured so far and who will now have to do without her second best scorer, while Michael Jordan’s franchise already occupies the penultimate place in the Eastern Conference, with a sad record of 10 wins and 28 losses…
