The Philadelphia 76ers, the National Basketball Association franchise based out of the City of Brotherly Love, welcomed back shooting guard Kelly Oubre, Jr. to the lineup last month after a bout with injury. Oftentimes, NBA players aren’t available to play for a period of time due to injuries sustained during a game or practice. However, Oubre’s month-long absence from the team was due to a fractured rib sustained when he was struck by a vehicle. Oubre was struck in the chest in a hit-and-run near his residence in Center City this past November1. The Sixers were without a solid scorer to back up their MVP-caliber star Joel Embiid, while Oubre was in for a lengthy hospital stay.
