Basically, yes, if you just look at bodies that OSSOS detected, it does not support the Planet Nine hypothesis. If however you consider both what OSSOS found and the already known TNOs, the new picture reinforces the Planet Nine hypothesis (with one outlier TNO that doesn't really fit, although it can apparently be made to).
