Pacers' Victor Oladipo to undergo season-ending knee surgery
Indiana Pacers guard Victor Oladipo has been diagnosed with a ruptured quad tendon in his right knee which will require season-ending surgery.
What It Means:
This was unfortunately expected after Oladipo was stretchered off the court Wednesday. Tyreke Evans will likely replace Oladipo in the starting lineup and there should be more work for Aaron Holiday and Cory Joseph off the bench. Thaddeus Young and Myles Turner may also be asked to do more on offense to help fill the void.
Dipo averaged 18.8 points, 5.6 rebounds, 5.2 assists, 1.7 steals, and 2.1 triples in 36 games for the Pacers this season.
