[Charania] Miami Heat guard Victor Oladipo has suffered a season-ending torn patellar tendon in his left knee, sources tell @TheAthletic @Stadium. Just another injury the two-time All-Star will work to overcome. 🙏🏽

It’s over 🙁
Wishing the best Dipo this sucks
That’s probably it. Heartbreaking.
Twitter docs were right :/
Basically ends his career given his other lower body issues
I hope he can come back but it’s too much now on his body 🙁
Damn.
I feel so bad for him, man. Injuries ruining/ruined his career.
Just sucks, man
2018 VO was a revelation
This is awful, poor dude has been through enough
He has to retire.
You want to be able to play with your kids.
This fucking sucks. Dipo always did whatever we asked of him without much complaints. You could see in his face how he knew this was it.
I feel like there needs to be an actual dialogue in sports surrounding over-training.
Maybe these guys are putting too much stress on their bodies.
I imagine the endless rehab is just debilitating on your mental health
Fuck man that Twitter doc was right. I feel so bad for Dipo I really hope he’s able to come back from this
Fucking terrible. You could tell from the look on his face when it happened that maybe his career just got taken from him, again. Really gotta feel for the guy.
Between ACL and Achilles tears this is the only injury I seen truly end careers. David Lee and Roberson come to mind
Damn, apparently torn patellar tendons are basically as bad as torn ACLs and can have longer recovery periods. Sucks for Vic.
Fuck……that sucks man
this fucking sucks dawg
Every win costs us a player.
That’s just not fair.
Been watching this dude since college. Sucks this keeps happening to him.
That sucks man. Injuries are the worst
It’s tough to see, been watching him since his days in AAU.
He needs to retire. Quality of life is the most important thing at this point, basketball is just a game. He has his degree, money, and he can sing. It’s time Vic, it’s time.
At least he’s made some money.
Sucks to see such a talent go through so many setbacks. I appreciate that Dipo didn’t give up and gave it another go this season, but this might be it. Wishing him all the best and hope he does what’s best for himself and his long-term future.
In the words of Kobe: “My heart can take the pounding. My mind can handle the grind. But my body knows it’s time to say goodbye.”
He didn’t deserve this. You just wonder how his career would’ve turned out if injuries were turned off.
He will be back. Dipo isn’t done
Lowry’s “fuck!” is pretty telling too.
Fuck, what is it with star basketball players and patellar tendons?
First Tom Segura, now dipo 🙁
He’s done. So sad
I think it’s time for him to move on. Take care of your body and live a happy life.
