Victor Oladipo got an early jump on the giving season.
The Indiana Pacers star has gifted the Kia car he won as the 2017-18 NBA Most Improved Player to a domestic violence survivor who works with the Julian Center, an Indianapolis organisation supporting domestic violence survivors.
Renita Hills was honoured on the court during the Pacers’ game Sunday against Washington. Oladipo appeared with the car in a taped message and called Hills “an inspiration to so many people.” Pacers mascot Boomer then gave Hills the keys. Oladipo, in his sixth season out of Indiana, won the NBA Cares Community Assist Award for December 2015 for his work that includes giving $35,000 to a center that works with children dealing with hearing loss, along with donating a car and money to a single mother and her daughter to help them transition out of living in an Orlando, Florida, women’s shelter.
