The small forward didn’t know the results of the test until after Washington’s Game 7 loss at Boston on Monday, as he asked doctors not to tell him until after the season.

“I haven’t gotten the results; I asked them not to let me know,” Oubre told reporters Tuesday during exit interviews at Verizon Center. “I just wanted to focus on basketball.

“I definitely have to look into that and see what procedures have to be done, but for right now I have no clue. I was just going out there and playing for my team.”

PRP therapy is a process that involves removing and then re-injecting a small amount of the patient’s blood at the point of injury. It is said to promote tissue regeneration that speeds the healing process. Oubre is expected to take about two weeks away from basketball to allow his knee to recover.

His knee injury first came up in the Wizards’ opening-round playoff series against the Atlanta Hawks, when the 21-year-old sat out a practice after Game 1 because of knee soreness but didn’t miss any game time. He played just six seconds in Monday’s Game 7 loss in Boston, though Wizards Coach Scott Brooks said he was simply shortening his rotation.

Oubre averaged 5.8 points in 15.2 minutes per game these playoffs. His most memorable moment, of course, came in Game 3 against the Celtics when he leveled Kelly Olynyk after the Celtics’ big man knocked him to the ground on a screen. Oubre was suspended for Game 4.

During the offseason, Oubre plans on working out with Bradley Beal — the two share a trainer — in addition to taking time off to heal and practicing guitar.
