FEBRUARY 24, 2023 • NEWSOBSERVER.COM

Left off injury report Oladipo (ankle) isn't on the injury report for Friday's game versus the Bucks, Ira Winderman of the South Florida Sun Sentinel reports.

Impact Oladipo's absence streak will end at seven games as he is available for Friday's matchup with Milwaukee. He will likely compete with Max Strus and Duncan Robinson for bench minutes.

Returns to practice Oladipo (ankle) was a full participant in Thursday's practice, Ira Winderman of the South Florida Sun Sentinel reports.

Impact Oladipo missed the previous seven games before the All-Star break due to a right ankle sprain. The 30-year-old guard said Thursday his ankle is feeling better but is being patient with his injury. If Oladipo can't suit up Friday, his next chance to play is Saturday's matchup with Charlotte.

FEBRUARY 23, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Out for final game of first half Oladipo (ankle) will remain out for Wednesday's game in Brooklyn, Anthony Chiang of the Miami Herald reports.

Impact Though head coach Erik Spoelstra said Sunday that Oladipo had a chance to return for the Heat's final two games before the All-Star break, the 30-year-old will ultimately remained sidelined with a right ankle sprain. With the benefit of some added healing time during the break, Oladipo should have a good chance at being available for the Heat's first game of the second half Feb. 24 in Milwaukee, though he'll likely have to practice beforehand in full capacity.

FEBRUARY 14, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Still out Oladipo (ankle) has been ruled out for Monday's matchup against the Nuggets.

Impact Oladipo will miss a sixth straight game due to a sprained right ankle. He'll have only one more chance (Wednesday in Brooklyn) to suit up before the All-Star break begins. Head coach Erik Spoelstra said Saturday that Oladipo has a realistic chance to play before the break, so he could make his return against the Nets, though his status for that game likely won't come for a few days.

FEBRUARY 12, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Remains out Saturday Oladipo (ankle) will not play in Saturday's game against the Magic, Barry Jackson of the Miami Herald reports.

Impact Oladipo will miss a fifth consecutive tilt with a sprained right ankle. His next opportunity to play will come Monday against the Nuggets.

FEBRUARY 11, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Won't play against Houston Oladipo (ankle) is out for Friday's game versus the Rockets, Ira Winderman of the South Florida Sun Sentinel reports.

Impact Oladipo's absence streak will extend to four games Friday due to a right ankle sprain. His next chance to suit up is Saturday's matchup with Orlando.

FEBRUARY 9, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Still sidelined Wednesday Oladipo (ankle) is out for Wednesday's game versus the Pacers, Ira Winderman of the South Florida Sun Sentinel reports.

Impact Oladipo will miss his third straight game due to a right ankle sprain. The 30-year-old guard will likely have to participate in practice before returning, with his next chance coming in Friday's matchup with Houston.

FEBRUARY 7, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Sits out practice Tuesday Oladipo (ankle) didn't participate in Tuesday's practice, Anthony Chiang of the Miami Herald reports.

Impact The Heat haven't yet updated Oladipo's status for Wednesday's game against the Pacers, but the fact that he missed the team's previous two contests and isn't yet practicing suggests he'll most likely be in line for a third straight absence. Assuming Oladipo sits Wednesday, the Heat will likely turn to Max Strus and Haywood Highsmith as its primary reserve options on the wing.

Out vs. Bucks Oladipo (ankle) is out for Saturday's game against the Bucks.

Impact As expected, Oladipo will sit out a second straight game due to a right ankle sprain. Max Strus, Gabe Vincent and Caleb Martin could see increased roles.

FEBRUARY 4, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Doubtful at Milwaukee Oladipo (ankle) is doubtful for Saturday's tilt at Milwaukee, Ira Winderman of the South Florida Sun Sentinel reports.

Impact A sprained right ankle is expected to keep Oladipo shelved for a second straight game. He's taken on a more prominent role lately and has played at least 20 minutes in 17 consecutive appearances. His presumed absence could lead to more minutes for Max Strus, Gabe Vincent (ankle) and Caleb Martin

FEBRUARY 3, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Officially ruled out Thursday Oladipo (ankle) won't play in Thursday's game versus Knicks.

Impact Oladipo has been downgraded from questionable to out Thursday due to a right ankle sprain. He will miss his first game since Dec. 30. Oladipo's next chance to suit up is Saturday's matchup with the Bucks.

Unlikely to play Thursday Oladipo (ankle) is doubtful for Thursday's game versus the Knicks, Ira Winderman of the South Florida Sun Sentinel reports.

Impact Oladipo has been downgraded from questionable to doubtful Thursday due to an ankle injury. If he's ultimately ruled out, his next chance to play is Saturday's matchup with the Bucks.

FEBRUARY 1, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Listed as questionable Oladipo is questionable for Thursday's matchup against the Knicks due to an ankle injury, Barry Jackson of the Miami Herald reports.

Impact Oladipo finished Tuesday's win Cleveland with five points, seven rebounds, six assists and three steals in 27 minutes, but he appears to have tweaked his ankle as well. The veteran guard hasn't missed a game since Dec. 30 and is averaging 13.1 points, 4.6 assists, 4.1 rebounds and 1.6 steals in 30.3 minutes over his last 16 appearances. If Oladipo is forced to miss any time, Max Strus, who's totaled just 30 minutes over Miami's previous two contests, will presumably see increased playing time.

Leader off bench in balanced outing Oladipo notched 11 points (4-9 FG, 0-3 3Pt, 3-5 FT), three rebounds, five assists, one block and three steals over 33 minutes during Sunday's 100-96 win over New Orleans.

Impact Oladipo put forth an all-around performance while leading the Heat bench in scoring and assists. Oladipo has tallied at least 10 points and five assists in six outings this year.

JANUARY 23, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Posts 20 points, offers little else Oladipo finished with 20 points (9-12 FG, 2-3 3Pt), two assists and one steal across 28 minutes off the bench in Friday's 115-90 loss to the Mavericks.

Impact After averaging 7.0 points per game on 42.9 percent shooting from the field over his previous two outings, Oladipo bounced back in the scoring column Friday while achieving his production efficiently. His stat line was lacking in just about every other area, but that's typically not a common occurrence for Oladipo, who is averaging 5.0 assists, 4.0 rebounds, 1.9 three-pointers and 1.4 steals in January. Though the 30-year-old is unlikely to recapture the form that made him a two-time All-Star with the Pacers earlier in his career, Oladipo has settled in as Miami's sixth man and is getting enough playing time and producing well enough across the board to warrant a roster spot in both 12-team points and categories leagues.

JANUARY 16, 2023 • MERCURYNEWS.COM

Drops 20 off bench in win Oladipo logged 20 points (8-17 FG, 2-4 3Pt, 2-2 FT), two rebounds, five assists and three steals across 36 minutes off the bench during Saturday's 111-95 victory over Milwaukee.

Impact With Kyle Lowry (knee), Tyler Herro (Achilles) and other members of the Miami backcourt in street clothes, Oladipo continued to see a big workload, and he responded with another big scoring effort. The veteran guard has looked like his pre-injury self lately, averaging 32.6 minutes over the last eight games and turning them into 17.1 points, 4.9 assists, 4.3 boards, 2.5 threes and 1.9 steals. The Heat are still resting Oladipo on back-to-backs, but the 30-year-old might get fully unleashed in the second half of the campaign after playing only 60 games over the prior three seasons.
