Pilgrim on Oweh…

[chasingwildcat]

I’ve got a better chance of bedding Rachel Bilson this evening than that happening. A couple of workouts aren’t going to change what NBA scouts already know and have seen the last couple years. I love OO and Hope like hell he’s at UK next year, but that dudes never playing in the NBA.

FWIW…I think he absolutely should go to the workouts. Why not?

hard to say

He may have a chance, the pre-tournament draft projections are always not accurate, and many jr or sr prospects will be projected higher after the season ending.

Yes, I could see the scenario that Oweh is projected around 50-60 in April and he could leave if he can be selected in second round and given a guaranteed contact by a team loves his game

Remember that Antonio Reeves was not appeared on ESPN mock draft before season ends and finally got drafted in 40-50 pick range

If you’re old enough to remember, Wayne turner’s form was on the level with MKG……the 3 ball for sure was hideous to watch.

I’m old enough to remember. I was a student at UK during that time and while it certainly wasn’t pretty, I don’t think it comes close to MKGs. MKG might be the ugliest in basketball history.

He was on the cusp of or in every single mock at this point. There’s not a chance in hell. I’m super confused why you would think this. Just zero evidence exists.

But he was quick and had lots of options to pass the ball too.

Yea man, he was amazing, especially in the Ky Vs Duke game. Great point guard.

Oh he's going to put his name in the draft to get feedback and then come back to UK as long as we dont low ball him in NIL. how is this news worthy and not just oh say common sense?

He is not great at anything

But good at most things

Certain teams sometimes need this type of player

Reeves also disappeared on espn mock draft before April

But Reeves can shoot. That makes up for a lot in today's NBA. Oweh can't shoot. He can't play the point at all. He's athletic but not NBA athletic. He's a good defender which might help?

Someone might take a flyer on him in round 2?

He is B level at everything, nothing is at A level...

Again, sometimes team needs this kind of glue player...

Spurs has seen him multiple times, he actually already has interests from NBA teams

 

[Titpwhami2014]

That is a little hyperbolic. It isn’t that bad.

If anything — the release point is inconsistent and the form reminds me of that ugly MKG/Wayne Turner corkscrew motion. Very few players can shoot the ball well with such poor form. Tayshaun Prince and Reggie Miller are the two outliers that stick out in my mind. Love Otega, but he’s not an NBA player. At least not at this point.

 

[MonsterMash79]

Easily my favorite player on the team. But my goodness, his shooting form makes MKG’s look like Klay Thompson’s. Should 1000% return.

Bill Cartwright 2.0

You don’t know that. Oweh’s 6’4, Jeremiah Fears of Oklahoma is 6’4. If he were to hit the portal which has been rumored, I’d take him over Oweh all day.

C’mon man. Fears is a lottery pick in the next NBA draft, he is not going to be in the portal.
