2 pros (and 1 con) of the Lakers signing Kelly Oubre Jr.

The 2023 NBA offseason has left behind a number of talented players without a roster spot. For the Los Angeles Lakers, these remaining free agents are intriguing options to bolster a roster fresh off a trip from the Western Conference Finals.

One such player is Charlotte Hornet wing Kelly Oubre Jr. After averaging 20.3 points and 5.2 rebounds last season, Oubre has yet to secure an NBA roster spot as the available money for free agents lessens.

At only 6-foot 7-inches tall, the veteran wing can compete to defend taller rivals and has the athleticism to keep up with shifty guards.
