Oladipo played for the veteran's minimum ($2.7 million) last season. An All-Star with the Indiana Pacers in 2018 and 2019, Oladipo averaged 12.4 points in eight regular-season games and 10.6 points over 15 playoff matches for the Heat this past campaign.

The 30-year-old shooting guard missed a significant amount of games due to undergoing quadriceps surgery in May 2021.

When healthy, Oladipo has proven to be an effective two-way player. He led the league in steals and earned NBA All-Defensive first-team honors during the 2017-18 campaign.

For his career, Oladipo is averaging 17.4 points, 4.6 rebounds, 3.9 assists, and 1.6 steals across 462 appearances between the Orlando Magic, Oklahoma City Thunder, Indiana Pacers, Houston Rockets, and Heat.
