After recovering from injury, Oladipo’s performance dropped, and Oladipo returned to peak state for knees “organizing a funeral” | NBA | DONGTW Sports Net

Rockets guard Victor Oladipo has performed very well this season, especially after moving from a horse to Houston through a trade. And behind this, Oladipo claims to have a special secret.

According to ESPN, Oladipo attended a funeral on the day before the final match of the warm-up match in December last year. There was no dead but a funeral for his injured knee.

The report said, “The reason why this ceremony was held is to say goodbye to the injured mentality. It had a great influence on Oladipo, who was selected for the All-Star twice.”

Oladipo suffered a serious knee injury in the 2018-19 season, then underwent surgery and did not return to play until January 2020. After his comeback, his performance and form dropped a lot compared to before the injury. In mid-January of this year, he came to Houston in a deal where the Rockets sent James Harden away.

Oladipo said that he played well this season because of the special funeral that helped him. “I feel much better. My mentality in the past was to be used to protecting myself. I would hesitate when doing leg movements. I got used to it. After burying my injury, I knew that I was cured and stronger than ever. This gave me the courage and strength to play and play to the full. I don’t think about the time when I was injured. I don’t give in anymore. .”

According to my understanding, the funeral ceremony was very formal and was presided over by a dedicated priest. Oladipo said that it helped a lot and healed his psychological problems.

Oladipo played very well after coming to the Rockets. So far, he averaged 22.3 points, 4.0 rebounds and 6.0 assists per game. He has supported the Rockets’ backcourt with John Wall.
