More on this storyline

Tim Reynolds: Erik Spoelstra says he doesn’t know yet if Victor Oladipo will play Monday. “He’s close,” Spo said, adding that he wants his mother — who doesn’t have Twitter — to break the news on Twitter. -via Twitter @ByTimReynolds / March 6, 2022

Ira Winderman: Erik Spoelstra stops short of saying Victor Oladipo will be back Monday, but not very short. Says there still will be a meeting of the training staff. -via Twitter @IraHeatBeat / March 6, 2022

Tim Reynolds: The target for Victor Oladipo’s return is indeed Monday, source confirms. Between that and the reasonable assumption that the Heat will get clarity on Markieff Morris’ status soon, Spo might be able to go full mad scientist with rotations before long. -via Twitter @ByTimReynolds / March 4, 2022
