Won't go Monday Oubre (illness) has been ruled out for Monday's game against the Trail Blazers, Derek Bodner of AllPHLY.com reports.
Impact Oubre will miss his first contest since Jan. 4 due to the illness. The 29-year-old swingman's next chance to suit up will come in the second half of the club's back-to-back set against the Timberwolves on Tuesday. Justin Edwards, Ricky Council and Lonnie Walker are candidates for an uptick in playing time due to Oubre being sidelined

Iffy for Monday Oubre is questionable for Monday's game against Portland due to an illness.
Impact Oubre was a late addition to the injury report after presumably waking up under the weather. Monday's game is the front end of a back-to-back set, so the 76ers could exercise caution here. If he's unable to play, guys like Justin Edwards, Lonnie Walker and Jared Butler could step into larger roles for the 76ers.
