Optimistic Miami Heat fans portrayed the off-season as losing P.J. Tucker but gaining a healthy Victor Oladipo. Unfortunately, though, the Heat ruled out Oladipo for Wednesday’s season opener against the Chicago Bulls.
And Barry Jackson of the Miami Herald reported today that Oladipo’s “status for the immediate future is also now in question.” In the piece, Jackson quotes Erik Spoelstra saying that Oladipo is day-to-day and that, “We want to make sure we take care of this so it doesn’t linger.”
Unfortunately, Oladipo has been diagnosed with a "chronic condition characterized by the degeneration of collagen in the tendons" in his other knee.
