Report: NBA and NBPA in Dispute Over Victor Oladipo's Salary

With the NBA restart approaching later this month, the league and the NBPA are in a dispute over Pacers star Victor Oladipo's salary, according to ESPN.

As part of the restart rules, players who are healthy but choose to opt-out of games will forgo their remaining salary for the rest of the season. On July 3, Oladipo said he'll sit out the resumption to ensure his ruptured quadriceps tendon fully recovers.

The star guard later traveled to Orlando with the Pacers and cleared quarantine to practice with his team. According to ESPN, the union believes he should be paid his remaining salary, which is nearly $3 million.
