Victor Oladipo (knee) now questionable for Heat on Tuesday

Miami Heat guard Victor Oladipo (knee) is questionable Tuesday against the Detroit Pistons.

What It Means:

The Heat are listing Oladipo as questionable for the first time since their opener, so he might actually be ready to make his season debut. Oladipo will likely be on a minutes limit if he plays Tuesday, but Jimmy Butler's (conditioning) absence opens up opportunities on offense for him and others.

In eight games for the Heat in the regular season last year, Oladipo averaged 21.6 minutes and 21.3 FanDuel points with a 25.1% usage rate. numberFire's models project him for 18.9 minutes per game this season, with 8.4 points, 2.4 rebounds, 2.3 assists, and 1.3 3-pointers.
