Oubre didn’t play in Saturday’s 125-109 win over the Houston Rockets, and Kerr told reporters in a postgame video conference that Oubre is “day to day.” “I just talked to him just now, and he said he’s doing pretty well,” Kerr said. “Day to day. It’s nothing too serious, but he’s not necessarily ready to play Monday. I think it’s literally day to day, so we’ll see.”
Connor Letourneau: Steve Kerr said he doesn’t know the extent of Kelly Oubre Jr.’s injury. Kent Bazemore will start in Oubre’s place.
Bogut said he had “on good authority” that Golden State turned down a trade offer from the New Orleans Pelicans that would have brought Lonzo Ball, a “throw in” [player] and a [draft] pick to the Warriors in exchange for Oubre. “I’ve been told that’s not even close to true,” The Athletic’s Anthony Slater said Monday on the “Warriors Plus Minus” podcast. “There was some early Oubre-Lonzo talk prior to the deadline. New Orleans never even came back to the table on Lonzo. And it doesn’t even seem like New Orleans by the end was shopping Lonzo, who has had a resurrected season.
“From what I’ve heard, the offers for Oubre were more in-season downgrades, maybe small assets, salary-dump possibilities — nothing that would have helped this current team more. Now, the argument could be made, ‘Get whatever you can if you’re not gonna re-sign him.’ And if he doesn’t come back and if they don’t even get a trade exception for him, that is criticize-able. “But Lonzo Ball and a pick was not on the table for Kelly Oubre.”
