Oladipo Chooses To Have Surgery, Ending His Heat Season

MIAMI (AP) — Victor Oladipo’s season is over, and the two-time All-Star and former All-NBA selection may be looking at another long rehabilitation before he can return to the court.

The Miami Heat announced Wednesday that Oladipo has elected to have surgery on his right quadriceps tendon.
