Victor Oladipo's best assist Sunday wasn't on the Bankers Life Fieldhouse court.

The Indiana Pacers star gave his Most Improved Player prize from last season -- a Kia -- to Julian Center employee and domestic abuse survivor Renita Hills.

"I’ve heard part of your story, and I think you’re an inspiration to so many people. And you’re a survivor," Oladipo said in a taped message played during a break in the action against the Washington Wizards.

Pacers mascot Boomer gave Hills the keys and a big hug.
