Oubre out for Warriors-Rockets with left wrist soreness

Kelly Oubre won't be on the floor with the Warriors for Saturday night's game against the Houston Rockets due to left wrist soreness.

Oubre appeared to hurt his wrist after a hard fall in the second quarter following a dunk in Friday night's loss to the Washington Wizards.

Oubre ended up playing 36 minutes, scoring 23 points and pulling down six rebounds.

The swingman previously sprained the same wrist in March and missed a pair of games.

Kent Bazemore started in Oubre's place on Saturday.

We'll likely see increased minutes for Bazemore and Damion Lee in Oubre's absence, and could see Gary Payton II make his debut with the team after signing a 10-day contract earlier this week.
