Victor Oladipo's Remaining $3M Salary For 19-20 In Dispute With NBA, NBPA
Victor Oladipo is in an unresolved dispute over his $3 million remaining for the season.
Under the rules the NBA established for its season restart in Orlando, players who were healthy but opted not to play would have to forgo their remaining salary for the season.
Oladipo announced two weeks ago that he was healthy but had decided not to play to ensure his recovery from a torn quad tendon suffered in January 2019.
Oladipo traveled with the Indiana Pacers to Orlando and is practicing.
Lawyers from the player\'s union and the NBA have reviewed the situation and there is dispute over where Oladipo\'s situation falls.
The Pacers support Oladipo\'s decision and are willing to pay him the salary whether he plays or not. Oladipo has one year and $21 million remaining on his contract after this season.
Oladipo has reconsidered his decision as he practices this week.
