By Darryn Albert | Last updated 12/28/20 Kelly Oubre’s first week with the Golden State Warriors has certainly been one to forget.
ESPN’s Tom Haberstroh shared a crazy statistic on Monday that shows just how bad the 25-year-old swingman has been to start his Warriors career. Other than dunks, Oubre is shooting a comical 0-for-33 on all other field-goal attempts this season.

While the Warriors have played only three games, Oubre is averaging 5.7 points per game on 17.5% shooting overall. He is chipping in with 7.7 rebounds and 2.0 steals per game, but the Warriors have lost two out of three to start.
