Scouting Reports:
July 2009-Oladipo is an absolute defensive menace. He is very active in the passing lanes and forces deflections and steals with his pressure and athleticism. He can also block shots and is excellent on the glass. Offensively, Oladipo is deceptively quick and can get to the rim and finish. He had multiple dunks after beating his man (Jeff Borzello at Peach Jam).

February 2009-Oladipo, a 6-4 wing, was quiet at times but finished the game pretty well. He has good form on his shot and can knock down shots from three-point range. He showed good athleticism and leaping ability, crashing the offensive boards. Oladipo gets his shot off quickly, but can also go to the hoop and use his body well. He also makes good outlet passes after rebounds. He had 11 points and five rebounds (Jeff Borzello at Spalding HoopHall Classic).

December 2008 - An athlete that has worked tirelessly on his perimeter skill set, Victor now not only excels on defense and in transition, but can get buckets in half court scenarios, whether shooting or attacking the tin. That work will continue, making Oladipo a candidate for the best player in D.C. next season (Ron Bailey on Oladipo at DTLR HS Festival).
