Quick Vic Oladipo story I just heard.
A former No. 2 pick, standing at a door for 10 minutes, holding it open for other people's families. That was Vic at the 2026 NBA Draft.
Heard it from somebody who was there. Vic was working the draft as an ambassador. Hour or so before it starts, all the players' families are coming off the bus, headed inside Barclays. And Vic just grabs the door. Holds it for every single green room family member. Every parent, every cousin, every girlfriend walking through the outer media door.
Nobody told him to do that, to my knowledge. Man with his career could've smiled, waved, held it for one or two people. Nah. He stood there and held the door, and from what I heard he was talking to everyone.
I don't know what's next for
@VicOladipo in the league, if anything. I just know some young team would be lucky to have that kind of mentor around in some capacity.
