Oladipo's Numbers Speak for Themselves
He never lets on. Never lets you in. Never drops the veil of take-it-one-game-at-a-time-and-learn-from-it-and-move-on to reveal human traits of frustration, doubt, joy, or redemption.
Thus, there's no backstory to report on Victor Oladipo's performance at Bankers Life Fieldhouse Friday, when he did what only two other Pacers in the franchise's NBA history have done: record a triple-double in a playoff game. Coming off three games unworthy of an All-Star, when he hit just 12-of-50 field goal attempts, he put together what surely was the best game of his career with 28 points, 13 rebounds, 10 assists, and four steals in the Pacers' 121-87 victory over Cleveland.
