INDIANAPOLIS (WRTV) -- The Pacers are signing forward Kelly Oubre Jr. to a two-year, nearly $17 million deal, according to a report from ESPN's Shams Charania.

Oubre averaged 14.1 points and 5.0 rebounds per game with the Philadelphia 76ers last season. He shot 46.7% from the field and 36% from three, his highest clip from long range in his 11-year career.

Oubre, who is 30-years-old, has played for five teams in his career, including the Washington Wizards, Phoenix Suns, Golden State Warriors, Charlotte Hornets, and the 76ers.

The 6-foot-8-inch guard comes to Indianapolis after playing a key role in the 76ers’ playoff run this past season. Oubre started all 11 postseason games for Philadelphia and averaged 11.6 points, 5.8 rebounds, and 1.1 assists per game while shooting 45.3 percent from the field.
