Suns' Kelly Oubre Jr. reflects on his time with Wizards: 'Gave everybody my all'


Oubre said she’ll go back to Washington to coordinate the move and then return to Phoenix where the Suns will begin a seven-game homestand Friday against Oklahoma City.


Celtics center Robert Williams and Wizards forward Kelly Oubre Jr. battle for a loose ball during a game Dec. 12 at Capital One Arena.


Oubre joins an already youthful team featuring 22-year-old Devin Booker and 7-footer Deandre Ayton, who is 20 years old and one of five rookies on the roster, but he already likes the Suns' composition.


Phoenix first tried to acquire him in a three-team deal, but it fell through after what Suns interim general manager James Jones calls a “miscommunication” over whether they were getting Dillon or MarShon Brooks from Memphis.


Phoenix eventually sent Trevor Ariza to Washington for Oubre and Austin Rivers, whom it later waived as both parties agreed it would be best if he was with an older team with current playoff aspirations.


“I could go into theories of why (general manger) Ernie (Grunfeld) and (vice president of basketball operations) Tommy (Sheppard) did what they did, but at the end of the day, it’s not my job to,” Oubre said.
