Miami Heat guard Victor Oladipo left Thursday’s game against the Los Angeles Lakers in the fourth quarter with a right knee injury.

Oladipo leaped off two feet for a dunk, then grabbed his right knee as he fell on the floor in his fourth game since being acquired from Houston at the trade deadline. Before returning to the locker room, he limped back up the court.

“Bam Adebayo said he believes Victor Oladpio is “OK.” Adebayo called it “a little scare” and said Oladipo was in good spirits postgame.

According to coach Erik Spoelstra, the team will not have an update on Oladipo’s injury on Thursday and will instead wait until he undergoes further evaluation.

Oladipo finished with 18 points, four assists, and three steals in 25 minutes before leaving the game with less than six minutes remaining. The Heat won 110-104.
