Kelly Oubre Jr. joins Pacers on two-year, $17 million deal

Kelly Oubre Jr. has signed with the Indiana Pacers in free agency, agreeing to a two-year contract worth $17 million.

The deal, first reported by Shams Charania, was later confirmed by the Pacers on social media.

Oubre joins Indiana after spending the past two seasons with the Philadelphia 76ers, where he developed into one of the team's key two-way wings.

Last season, the veteran forward averaged 14.1 points and 5.0 rebounds per game while shooting a career-best 36 percent from three-point range.

Indiana is looking to strengthen its roster as it prepares for the return of franchise star Tyrese Haliburton, who suffered a torn Achilles tendon during the 2025 NBA Finals against the Oklahoma City Thunder.

After reaching the Finals in 2025, the injury to Haliburton contributed to the Pacers' struggles last season, when they finished 14th in the Eastern Conference.

The Pacers are hoping Oubre's scoring ability, perimeter defense, and experience will provide additional depth as the team looks to return to playoff contention.

Oubre is expected to wear jersey No. 10 for Indiana.
