Bam Adebayo has given Miami Heat fans an optimistic update on the injury of teammate, Victor Oladipo, saying he was in good spirits after their 6-point victory over the defending champions, Los Angeles Lakers on Thursday, April 8.
Bam said it isn’t cool seeing anyone go down with an injury, especially in the knee area.
But assured fans Victor will be fine and back soon.
The Heat certainly don’t want to see Oladipo go down, especially since they just acquired him at the trade deadline.
Bam Adebayo said Victor Oladipo was congratulating teammates in the locker room after the game. Adeabyo added, "I feel like he's OK. He just had a little scare."

Oladipo jumped off of two feet for a dunk, then grabbed his right knee as he landed on the floor. He limped back up the court before heading to the locker room.
Erik Spoelstra said the Heat will evaluate Victor Oladipo's right knee injury tomorrow. No update right now.
