No single play reveals more about Victor Oladipo than the final play of his Orlando Magic tenure.
On April 8, the Magic hosted the Miami Heat in a game that some players would have considered meaningless for Orlando. It was Game 79 of a frustrating regular season. The Magic already had been eliminated from playoff contention.
It meant something to Oladipo, though. Late in the third quarter, Heat center Hassan Whiteside received a pass and barreled down the lane. Oladipo planted his feet and attempted to draw a charge. Whiteside collided with Oladipo, and one of Whiteside's elbows smacked into the area just above Oladipo's left eye.
