The Phoenix Suns will meet with restricted free agent Kelly Oubre Jr. on
Sunday night, per 98.7 FM Arizona’s Sports Station’s John Gambadoro.
The meeting will take place at 6 p.m. With the free agent period beginning at
3 p.m., the Suns could come to an agreement with the forward at the meeting.
依據 98.7 FM Arizona Station’s John Gambadoro的消息，鳳凰城太陽隊將於週日
(6/31)晚上與受限制的自由球員Kelly Oubre Jr. 會面 。
會議將在下午6點舉行。隨著自由球員時間從下午3點開始，太陽隊可能在會議上與這位前
鋒達成協議。
Oubre, 23, was acquired from the Washington Wizards in late December in
exchange for Trevor Ariza. Guard Austin Rivers was involved in the deal as
well but the Suns waived him.
Due to his high level of energy and swagger on the court, the lefty quickly
became a fan favorite and earned a rabid following locally on social media.
23歲的Oubre是在於12月底由華盛頓巫師隊取得，以換取Trevor Ariza。後衛Austin
Rivers也涉及了這筆交易，但是太陽隊最終還是放棄了他。
由於Oubre在球場上的高能量與昂揚鬥志，這位左撇子迅速成為球迷的最愛，並在社群媒
體上贏得了當地人的狂熱追蹤。
Oubre has thrived in Phoenix, posting career-high numbers in points (16.9),
rebounds (4.9) and assists (1.7) per game, along with his best efficiency yet
in shooting from the field at 45.3%.
After a thumb injury ended his season prematurely, Oubre told Burns & Gambo
on 98.7 FM Arizona’s Sports Station that he wanted to remain a Sun.
Oubre在鳳凰城茁壯成長，場均得分（16.9分），籃板（4.9分）和助攻（1.7分），並且
他在45.3％投籃命中率方面也相當有效率。
在因為拇指受傷過早結束他的賽季之後，Oubre在98.7 FM Arizona’s Sports Station上
告訴Burns & Gambo他想留在太陽。
“Why would I go anywhere else?” he said. “I’m here, I’m getting
established and I’m not a guy that really wants to be on a million teams in
my tenure in the league and I just want to create a dynasty and a legacy here
in Phoenix with [Deandre Ayton], [Devin Booker], [Mikal Bridges], all the
guys in the locker room. It’s beautiful.”
“為什麼我會想去其他地方？”他說。“我在這裡，我已經適應這裡，並且我不是一個在
聯盟職涯期間希望能夠加入豪門球隊的人，我只想[和Deandre Ayton]，[Devin Booker]
，[ Mikal Bridges]，還有休息室裡的所有人，在鳳凰城創造一個王朝和傳奇。這願景很
美麗。”
The Suns enter free agency with roughly $13 million in cap space. Because the
Suns own Oubre’s Bird rights, though, Phoenix can go over the cap to sign
Oubre.
Oubre carries a $9.6 million cap hold so long as Phoenix does not renounce
its rights on the forward.
太陽隊以大約1300萬美元的薪資空間進入自由市場。因為太陽隊擁有Oubre的鳥權，所以
鳳凰城可無視薪資上限來簽下Oubre。
只要鳳凰城不放棄對前鋒Oubre的權利，他就會占據960萬美元的薪資空間。
On the wing, the Suns have made it three straight years of selections in the
first round of the NBA Draft, beginning with Josh Jackson fourth in 2017,
acquiring the rights to Mikal Bridges last year and trading down in the 2019
NBA Draft to pick North Carolina’s Cam Johnson 11th overall.
從2017年以第四順位選中Josh Jackson開始，太陽隊已經連續三年在NBA選秀第一輪選中
側翼球員中，去年則獲得了選擇Mikal Bridges的權利，並在2019年選秀大會上以第11順
位選中了北卡羅萊納的Cam Johnson。
