Pacers Season Review: Life with and without Victor Oladipo

Victor Oladipo came into this season as the undisputed leader of the Indiana Pacers. His first month of the season was spectacular before he suffered an injury that sidelined him for 11 games. Oladipo then returned to the lineup for 20 games before he suffered the season-ending quad injury. Pacers fans feel robbed of a chance of great success, and rightfully so.

This is no fault of Oladipo’s or anyone else. An unfortunate injury in late January changed the landscape of the season for Indiana. While it opened the door for other players to step up, it’s never easy to lose the best player on a playoff team.
