INDIANAPOLIS – The National Basketball Association announced Thursday that Indiana Pacers guard Victor Oladipo was named as a reserve for the 2019 NBA All-Star Game to be held Feb. 17 in Charlotte.
Due to an injury sustained in the Jan. 23 game against the Toronto Raptors, Oladipo will be unable to play in the 2019 NBA All-Star game. He underwent successful surgery on Jan. 28 to repair a ruptured quad tendon in his right knee. He is expected to make a full recovery but will be out for the remainder of the 2018-19 season.
In his sixth season in the NBA and second with the Pacers, Oladipo is a second-time NBA All-Star, having been named a reserve for the 2018 NBA All-Star Game.
