Indiana Pacers’ All-Star Victor Oladipo still doesn’t know whether he’ll join his team for NBA season resume.
Several weeks ago, Oladipo said that his decision on going to Orlando will mostly depend on his physical ability. The 28-year-old guard was previously sidelined with a knee injury for more than a year and only returned to action in January.
According to sources, Pacers are confident that they’ll have their best player on the team for the rest of 2019/20 and have made him part of their travel list. However, Oladipo himself told reporters on Wednesday that he still hasn’t made the final decision.
“I haven’t made a decision just yet. Just taking it one day at a time,” said Oladipo. “I feel like when the day comes, I’ll know. I appreciate my teammates and this organization for backing me and supporting me with whatever decision I make, but at the same time, I’m focused on me getting as strong as possible and getting where I’m at.”
Despite their optimism, Pacers reportedly didn’t pressure Oladipo and have informed the player that they will support him regardless of the choice he makes. Also, the organization didn’t set any deadlines for him to make the final decision.
Since coming back from injury, Victor Oladipo played 13 games in which he averaged 13.8 points, 3.2 rebounds, and 3.0 assists.
