I have no sources on this, AJ. Just underscoring that the chain of communication has been weird & there are plenty of dots to connect between him-Miami (i.e. cap space, Dwyane Wade, where he rehabbed and is part owner of a gym, their rumored interest, etc.)

… there’s more to it beyond those things. Not a big secret inside basketball circles.

Oladipo, 28, returned from a ruptured quadriceps tendon injury in January.
The 6-foot-4 guard put up just 13.8 points, 3.2 rebounds and 3.0 assists per game this season. However, rust from the injury played into his subpar performance upon returning.
The Heat are interested Oladipo, who is set to become a free agent in 2021.
After all, prior to his injury, the veteran was turning into a superstar. During the 2017-18 campaign, Oladipo averaged 23.1 points, 5.2 boards, 4.3 assists and 2.4 steals per contest.
The Heat and Pacers could meet in the playoffs this year. The Heat hold the No. 4 spot, while the Pacers hold the No. 5 spot in the Eastern Conference.
The 2019-20 season officially resume on July 30.
