Miami Heat guard Victor Oladipo has been ruled out of the team's season-opening matchup against the Chicago Bulls with a left knee injury.
Any injury to Oladipo is going to raise concerns given his recent injury history. He has undergone multiple surgeries on his right quadriceps tendon and last played more than 36 games during the 2017-18 campaign.
The Indiana University product appeared in just eight games for Miami last season, although he played in 15 postseason games.
There was a time when Oladipo was one of the better two-way players in the NBA.
