If you're using the gradle wrapper, make sure that the distributionUrl in your gradle/wrapper/gradle-wrapper.properties is correct and up to date. As of this writing, I use this:

 distributionBase=GRADLE_USER_HOME
 distributionPath=wrapper/dists
 zipStoreBase=GRADLE_USER_HOME
 zipStorePath=wrapper/dists
 distributionUrl=https\://services.gradle.org/distributions/gradle-3.3-all.zip
