When the NBA changed its All-Star Game to a contest of drafted teams rather than Eastern and Western Conference foes, fans hoped it would bring about a more competitive evening. With an uptick and fouls and defense, such a night was found, and Victor Oladipo was a part of the winning squad.
As a member of the reserves on Team LeBron, Oladipo contributed to a 148-145 win on Sunday evening. In 15 minutes of action, Oladipo put up seven points, three assists, two boards and an impressive three steals. His shot wasn’t on from deep (1-6), but he still made his presence felt.
