For people not aware:

"Surveillance video does not show hit-and-run against Sixers’ Kelly Oubre Jr. in Center City, police say"

https://www.inquirer.com/news/kelly-oubre-jr-hit-car-76ers-police-evidence-20231115.html

The hit was around 1400 block of Spruce Street and Hicks Street for my fellow Philly people.

If he was hit by a car on Broad and Spruce there would 100% be video evidence. Something isn’t adding up here

[–] StefonDiggsHS@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

it would be really funny if nurse was like "damn i cant believe Kelly is a fuckin LIAR"

like of course the coach is gonna say this lol

idk what really happened but philly drivers are wack so imma believe him

This situation has been confusing to read about. Are they saying that the police can’t find any evidence related to the accident and hit and run? As in there were no witnesses, Oubre couldn’t identify the driver/car, etc.

Or are they straight up saying that police couldn’t find any evidence that an accident even occurred/that Oubre was struck by a car at all?

[–] Dig_bickclub@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

Mostly Scenario B, Oubre did give a general description of the location and car so they search the surveillance cameras in the area but they could not find any to corroborate that an accident happened.

I swear if this turns into a Juicy Smooyay situation

[–] Frontier21@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

Starting to remind me of Kevin Love’s knuckle push-ups.

[–] LostPants7@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

wait what

why would he lie?

Did he get jumped?

Are the injuries real?

I'm confused

[–] kumingaaccount@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

bc they would lose their bag maybe. Think back to Monta Ellis and his moped accident.

Just here to run a preemptive victory lap:

I was going to say stop patting yourself on the back for something many thought, but man I HATE when someone is trying to actually think for themselves and presents an opinion that's different from the hivemind only to get blasted with no actual thought on the other side, just a "nope you're dumb af lol"

[–] mightbeagoon@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

idk but it really is a weird situation. struck by driver side mirror hard enough to need medical attention. how does that even happen? was he on the street with a blindfold on? was the driver going like 200mph and there was 0 reaction time?

feels like he did somethin he wasn't supposed to, made up the story and told people the location and time, didn't realize there would have been cameras there, and now here we are

People don't know what conspiracy means. Suggesting one guy might be lying is not a conspiracy theory.

[–] No-Equipment-20@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I seriously doubt Oubre would lie, but the funniest timeline is Kelly Oubre becomes the Jussie Smollett of vehicular assault

[–] KnickedUp@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

Cover up injury by other means that could void his contract??

[–] PurpleYessir@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

Kelly oubre is batman and he trying to keep his identity secret.

[–] dkdoki@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Nba’s version of the jussie smollett incident

[–] dfsvegas@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

"Jussie Oubre, he's a very gay, very famous French NBA player."

[–] dbgager@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago (2 children)

Why would he make up something like that.

[–] Poronga-Arenosa@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

You answered your own question.

[–] captaincumsock69@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

More likely it something that could void his contract like riding a motorcycle

[–] junkit33@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

Do we not have records of precisely where the emergency medics showed up? If you just got him by a car and have serious pain over half your body, you’re clearly not moving very far.

If cameras aren’t showing anything there, then Oubre has some serious explaining to do.

[–] Educational-Duck@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

KELLY OUBRE IS A LIAR

[–] WaubesaWarriors@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago
[–] Arooooooooooooooo@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

Why are the Sixers always involved in this shit. Lmao.

[–] OG3NUNOBY@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

#BelieveAllKellys

Ayyy what the haeeell.

There’s no evidence like he could’ve just made it up?

[–] trinquin@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

I'm pretty sure it was just Giannis driving down the lane.

[–] ktdotnova@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

"That was a normal hit-and-run. Find a new slant."

[–] Theanswer17@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

It was obviously a BMX accident as is Sixer tradition

[–] dragonrider5555@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

That’s a 2 grand fine thx to the flop rule

[–] dragonrider5555@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

Hot take - Kelly won’t be back in two weeks because the team asked him to stay away : internal investigation. Someone !remind me this

[–] angel2timez@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

His injuries match the description of a person getting hit by a car. He isn’t from there and supposedly had to walk to get help. He could have the location wrong or a concussion. I really don’t expect the police either to look into other near by locations or actually investigate. If they tried hard enough they could 100% where Kelly came from and was doing. Someone could have dropped him off and said fake like you got hit. They would see that if they actually tried

[–] Future-Tart@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

Calling it now...

He was actually abducted by Aliens, but the league is trying to cover it up

[–] captaincumsock69@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

I heard manti teos girlfriend was the one driving the car

[–] kamekaze1024@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

The injuries make it seem impossible he self inflicted it or at least unlikely. I 100% don’t think he got in a fight, his face would most definitely be injured
