At the end of April, right during the playoffs, Victor Oladipo tore a knee ligament and, five months later, it is still unknown when he will be able to return to competition, although there was optimism after his injury.
What is certain, unsurprisingly, is that the 31-year-old full-back will not be on his feet for the resumption of the Thunderscheduled for next week on the occasion of training camp (October 2). As confirmed Sam Presti.
“ He’s a great person, he’s been through a lot. He will return this season but, given the situation of our squad, we cannot prioritize that. But we are big fans of Victor “, specifies OKC GMwho picked up “Dipo” from Miami in early July.
Already passed by Oklahoma City in 2016/17 (for 15.9 points, 4.3 rebounds, 2.6 assists, 1.2 interceptions on average), Victor Oladipo could finally not wear the colors of the franchise next season, since Sam Presti indicated that he would have to make a decision regarding his contract…
Free in a year, Victor Oladipo will receive $9.5 million in 2023/24 and he is one of the Thunder’s 14 guaranteed contracts. Unlike Isaiah Joe, Jeremiah Robinson-Earl, Aaron Wiggins and Jack White, who will try to obtain the last place in the squad. The 2018 MIP could therefore be sacrificed to keep one more player.
