He equaled his season high in rebounds and set a season high in assists. The senior guard has nine steals in his last four games. Kentucky has lost back-to-back games, but Oweh and his teammates will look to get a win against North Carolina Central on Tuesday.

Scores 16 in win Oweh had a season-high 16 points (6-11 FG, 1-2 3Pt, 3-3 FT), two rebounds, three assists and two steals over 24 minutes during Wednesday's 104-54 victory over Tennessee Tech.

Impact Oweh continues to amble along. His numbers are still down from 2024-25. He has scored at least 11 points but no more than 16 points through seven games. The senior's shooting numbers are up and he had converted 55.0 percent of his field goals over last two games. The Wildcats may need an Oweh breakout against North Carolina next Tuesday.

Continues to struggle Oweh chipped in 12 points (4-12 FG, 2-5 3Pt, 2-2 FT), four rebounds, three assists and one block in 31 minutes during Tuesday's 83-66 loss to Michigan State.

Impact Although he led the Wildcats in scoring in the loss, Oweh continues to struggle to stand out. He now has three straight games of 12 points and is hitting just 43.1 percent of his field goals and 29.4 percent of his 3-pointers. There may be a breakout coming, but fantasy owners may have to adjust their expectations for the 6-4 senior.

Early season struggles continue Oweh fouled out of Tuesday's 96-88 loss to Louisville after recording 12 points (4-13 FG, 1-6 3Pt, 3-4 FT), five rebounds, two assists, one block and two steals over 28 minutes.

Impact The Wildcats faced their first real test of the season and fell to their intrastate rival. After averaging 16.2 points as a junior, Oweh has not topped 15 points through three games. He did not play more than 22 minutes in the first two blowout wins. Look for the 6-4 senior to call his own number more often on Friday against Eastern Illinois.

Scores 17 in exhibition Oweh provided a team-high 17 points (4-12 FG, 1-4 3Pt, 8-11 FT) in the exhibition loss to Georgetown on Thursday.

Impact The Wildcats struggled from the field and equaled Oweh's 33.3 percent from the field as a squad. The senior guard was one of three Wildcats to draft six fouls. Oweh scored in double digits in all but three games with enough non-scoring stats to be a nice fantasy factor. Look for the 6-4 to open the season with a strong game against Nicholls State on Tuesday.
