You hate to see anybody go down but Victor Oladipo worked so hard for so many years battling back to be in position just to play basketball again. That one really stinks because you know he had many lonely nights when he was the only one who believed his efforts would be worth it – 10:01 PM

Tough moment. Victor Oladipo goes down hard and grabs his surgically repaired right knee. Stretcher comes out but he walks off to the locker room with the help of Erik Spoelstra and support of his teammates. pic.twitter.com/IXgRjFePLc – 9:55 PM

Heat up 66-53 at half. Beyond Butler’s 21, it makes such a huge difference when bench of Duncan, Lowry, Oladipo, Martin are best versions of themselves, like tonight. – 8:45 PM

Victor Oladipo is swarming defensively
When he does this, it’s hard to take him off the floor
This is elite stuff on-ball – 8:21 PM

More on this storyline
A stretcher was brought out to the floor to assist him to the locker room, but Oladipo waved it off in order to walk to the back with his teammates. He is scheduled to undergo further testing on Sunday morning. “It was a great win, but when you see a player go down like that and particularly a player like Vic who has gone through so much in the last three years — I don’t know what it is right now so I dont want to jump the gun on anything,” Heat coach Erik Spoelstra said. “But that’s definitely not a good feeling to see.” -via ESPN / April 23, 2023
Barry Jackson: Erik Spoelstra, on Victor Oladipo injury: “Vic, we don’t know right now. We’ll have him checked out tomorrow. I feel how everyone feels. Great win, but when you see a player go down like that – particularly a player like Vic, who has gone through so much. I don’t know what it is right now.” -via Twitter @flasportsbuzz / April 23, 2023
Barry Jackson: Bam Adebayo, on Victor Oladipo: “We haven’t heard from Vic yet. I think he’s good because he walked off on his own.” He needed help to walk off, but waved off the stretcher. -via Twitter @flasportsbuzz / April 22, 2023
