Tyrese Maxey singles out Kelly Oubre Jr. for his work on the floor to help the Philadelphia 76ers succeed and move forward.

Coach Nick Nurse gives a ton of praise to Philadelphia 76ers forward Kelly Oubre Jr. for the progress he has made.

Oubre created a spark for the Sixers against the New York Knicks, slotting into the frontcourt and fighting for rebounds.

Eric Gordon has returned to form as well, and Ricky Council had a productive game in Delaware then was back for a strong outing against the Lakers.

The Philadelphia 76ers can get a player they were interested in previously and the Minnesota Timberwolves can get a boost of the offensive end in a potential deal involving Kelly Oubre Jr.

Philadelphia could send Oubre to Charlotte, where he played before joining the Sixers. Oubre and Eric Gordon, who has an expiring contract could work for someone like Cody Martin, a solid shooter ...

That could make it difficult to justify moving Kelly Oubre Jr. or Caleb Martin for reasons ... of the most decorated three-point shooters in NBA history, particularly ones with star-laden rosters.

These five players could be re-routed ahead of the NBA's Feb. 6 trade deadline and profile as potentially meaningful contributors to a title run.

Having just played yesterday, they will get right back to it and host the Sacramento Kings at 7:30 p.m. ET at Wells Fargo Center. The 76ers are coming into the contest hot, having won their last three games.
