Do you really think Oubre is going to command $20 Million? That’s a hefty price for a guy that hasn’t made a star leap. He’s good, but I don’t think he’s that good.
Last year Otto Porter - 32mpg/13ppg/6rpg/63%TS
This Year Kelly Oubre - 27mpg/12ppg/5rpg/58%TS
I think Oubre is also known as a better defender and he has 1 more year to continue to impove. Oubre has just about doubled his production from last year and is now shooting 40% from 3 on 4 shots per game.
Year 3 for Porter and Oubre look very similar.
Porter got 4/106 which is an average of 26.5 per year. Oubre will get paid with a higher max.. I see 20 million being low end. NBA stopped paying bigs and started overpaying wings because how important they are. Almost every team could use another long small forward, the market for Oubre will be strong and he could do much more with more minutes and development.
I see what you are saying but Porter is much more efficient then Oubre. I can't see someone wanting to pay Kelly that much but didnt think Otto was worth max either.
Look at Porters year 3 compared to Oubre. Oubre was more efficient. Porter had an amazing contract year and is still doing good but this year they both have a 58%ts.
Oubre also guards the hardest matchup, the guy is the wing version of Smart except he can actually shoot.
Hell id happily offer Oubre 20mil next year.
