There was a familiar face back inside Gainbridge Fieldhouse on Wednesday night.

Victor Oladipo, a two-time NBA All-Star with the Indiana Pacers, attended the Fever’s 107-101 win over the Phoenix Mercury. He sat in Row 3 of Section 15 with his manager, Nieman Johnson (right), and skills trainer, Ryan Powell (middle).

During the second half, I messaged him to see what he was doing in town.
