Victor Oladipo nominated for Eastern Conference Player of the Week

It was a tumultuous week for Orlando Magic guard Victor Oladipo.

After the Magic struggled against the Cleveland Cavaliers on Monday, they made a pretty drastic change to the starting lineup. Scott Skiles moved Victor Oladipo to the bench somewhat controversially.

Then in the three home games the Magic played afterward, Oladipo played perhaps his best basketball of the season — at least his most productive — and the Magic won all three games by at least nine points. The three wins got the Magic above .500 this late in the season for the first time since Dwight Howard‘s final season in Magic pinstripes.
