After transferring in from Penn, Jordan Obi missed the entirety of last season due to a lower leg injury she suffered during the offseason.
The team could have certainly used her last year, but the long wait for her Kentucky debut was more than worth it. As Kentucky beat Morehead State 75-59 on Monday, Obi shined as she recorded 15 points on 6-11 shooting while also grabbing 15 rebounds along the way.
It had been 598 days since Obi took the court. Five. Hundred. Ninety. Eight. So, to say that she was thankful to be out there again would be an understatement.
