Miami Heat’s Erik Spoelstra Impressed By How Victor Oladipo Has Handled New Role

When the Miami Heat signed guard Victor Oladipo in March 2021, nothing was guaranteed. 

That remains the case today. 

Despite the uncertainty, Oladipo continues working his way back with hopes of regaining All-Star form. 

“The biggest story about Vic is the commitment to get his body right, to get him mentally, emotionally ready and to be vulnerable just to be available,” Heat coach Erik Spoelstra said. I’ve said this many times but there’s not a lot of players that would do that, put themselves out there for the game if you’re not guaranteed a specific role. His role is different than when who’s been when he was at the top of his game.”
