Houston Rockets shooting guard/small forward Victor Oladipo (quad) and power forward/center Christian Wood (ankle) will miss Saturday's game versus Dallas, leaving a sizable offensive void. For Wood, it marks his second consecutive absence with a sprained right ankle, which should allow DeMarcus Cousins to make another start and see considerable DFS upside. While the team gets John Wall (knee) back Saturday, it loses Oladipo for the first time since his acquisition, opening the door for Eric Gordon, Ben McLemore, David Nwaba, and Jae'sean Tate to all see increased roles. The next time that Oladipo and Wood have a chance to return to action comes Tuesday in an advantageous matchup against the Wizards, who have allowed a whopping 121.3 PPG this season.--Jesse Borek

The Rockets traded guard Victor Oladipo (and three second-round picks) to Memphis on Thursday night. In exchange, Houston will receive center Steven Adams. The Rockets needed a veteran center to mentor Alperen Sengun, one of the league's top centers. But the Grizzlies needed to shave some cash off the books, so the move makes sense for both teams. Without question, Oladipo has been a top producer over the years on both ends of the floor and has two All-Star appearances to show for it. He's averaged 16.9 points, 4.5 rebounds, and 1.6 steals. Unfortunately, Oladipo can't stay healthy. He's currently sidelined by a knee injury sustained in the 2023 NBA playoffs and doesn't have a return date. But if the 31-year-old can get healthy and stay that way, he'll be a welcome addition to any fantasy roster.--Dennis Clausen - RotoBaller

Houston Rockets guard Victor Oladipo (knee) likely won't remain with the team for long, with the club reportedly trying to move on from him following his arrival on Tuesday in a deal with the Thunder. Jake Fischer of Yahoo Sports has noted that Houston sees Oladipo as a trade piece and has an interest in Detroit's Alec Burks, Utah's Talen Horton-Tucker, and Portland's Malcolm Brogdon. Oladipo is on an expiring contract that is set to pay him $9.5 million in 2023-24. He's had three major surgeries in four years and is currently recovering from a left-knee procedure, which was done in April. The 31-year-old is expected to miss most of 2023-24.--Taavi Pailk - RotoBaller

Oklahoma City Thunder guard Victor Oladipo (knee) won't be ready for the beginning of training camp, according to team president Sam Presti. Oladipo has struggled to stay healthy since suffering a ruptured quad tendon in 2019. He suffered another knee injury during the postseason with the Miami Heat last season. It's worth noting that the Thunder are loaded with young talent that needs playing time. Honestly, it's hard to imagine Oladipo carving out a legitimate role for himself even when healthy. He probably won't have much fantasy value to begin the season.--Andy Webb - RotoBaller

Victor Oladipo is once again an Oklahoma City Thunder man after the Miami Heat traded him on Friday for two future second-round picks. The 31-year-old also spent the 2016-17 campaign with the Thunder. Injuries soon derailed Oladipo's career after that season, and he's seen very little action in recent years. The former All-Star suited up in 42 games for Miami last term, averaging 10.7 points with 3.0 rebounds and 3.5 assists. He missed the end of the campaign with a torn patellar tendon in his left knee. It's currently unclear when he will be healthy enough to play again. Meanwhile, Miami created a $9.45 million trade exception with the deal.--Taavi Pailk - RotoBaller
