Veteran Guard Victor Oladipo is gearing up for a possible return to the National Basketball Association. He held a workout in Las Vegas on Monday. The team in attendance reportedly said he was in “excellent shape.” He last played in the NBA in 2023. He suffered a knee injury in the NBA Playoffs that season. He has not appeared in an NBA game since. Where will Oladipo land?

Victor Oladipo Career Summary

Oladipo entered the NBA with great fanfare. He was the No. 2 overall pick in the 2013 NBA Draft. He spent the first three seasons of his career with the Orlando Magic. His career also included stints with the Indiana Pacers, Houston Rockets, Oklahoma City Thunder, and Miami Heat. The best year of his career came in 2017-18 when he was a member of the Indiana Pacers. He was named Most Improved Player, earned Third Team All-NBA honors, and was named First Team All-Defense. He is also a two-time NBA All-Star(2018, 2019).

Final Thoughts

It is unclear which NBA team will give Oladipo another shot in the NBA. Once one of the league’s most electric players has seen his career upended by injuries. At only 33, the two-time All-Star will look to write a new chapter in his NBA story.
