In the wake of positive news on when Victor Oladipo may be ready for full-contact action again, the Miami Heat are reportedly “not ruling anything out” when it comes to re-signing the pending free agent.
The surgeon who performed the tendon surgery on Oladipo indicated that the veteran could be back to engaging in full-contact activity by November.
Given the uncertainty over the 29-year-old Oladipo’s future, other teams may look elsewhere before investing any large sum of money in the veteran guard.
That scenario is why maintaining a dialogue with Oladipo, who will rehabilitate the repaired tendon with Heat doctors, is part of the team’s plan.
Prior to his first quadriceps injury in 2019, Oladipo had developed into a top-notch player and had been the object of interest by the Heat.
In March, the Heat acquired Oladipo from the Houston Rockets, but his time in a Heat uniform was short, ending on April 8, when he suffered a non-contact injury against the Los Angeles Lakers.
That injury led to the surgery that took place earlier this month.
