Victor Oladipo
Victor Oladipo would be an interesting player to bring to the Los Angeles Lakers. He is an extremely talented guy who seems to be being passed from one team to the next for some odd reason. However, his injuries are a huge concern and something the Lakers do not need. After all, he has only played in 88 games in three years.
Sure, his salary would most likely be cheaper than the $21,000,000 per season he was getting but he would still be a huge gamble. Also, Miami has his Bird Rights. We have seen what a talented player he is and the ability he has but the injuries kind of clogging up for him.
Now, if he was signed by another team, I think it would be great if his contract was possibly restructured or if he was signed to a cheaper price and therefore had to prove that he has come back from the injuries and that he can be a stable part of any team he goes too.
Perhaps various workouts would be in order for him to show what he can do. That being said, it sounds like it would all be up in the air. There is no doubt that when healthy, Oladipo can do a lot of damage as a player to opposing teams and that he can be one of the top talents in the league.
He could be the guy who is key to a team doing well and it would be great to see a player of his caliber healthy and ready to go, leading the way at the top of the key for the Lakers but I don’t think that is going to happen. The Los Angeles Lakers should pass.
