Rockets' Victor Oladipo: Inactive to start season

Oladipo (knee) is out for Wednesday's opener against Orlando, Alykhan Bijani of The Athletic reports.

Oladipo underwent patellar tendon surgery at the end of April and has been traded twice since the injury. His rehab combined with a potential disinterest in joining the Rockets makes his future difficult to evaluate. The 31-year-old was slated to begin basketball activities six months after surgery.
