NBA Draft deadline day came and went on Wednesday, with Kentucky basketball stars Chris Livingston and Oscar Tshiebwe opting to remain in the draft pool, ending their college careers, while Antonio Reeves’ future remained up in the air.
Tshiebwe, a former consensus National Player of the Year and arguably one of Kentucky’s most impactful players ever, made his announcement first around 5 p.m. EST.
Tshiebwe took to social media, posting a graphic that explained that “Big O” had made the decision to remain in the 2023 NBA Draft and forgo his remaining college eligibility.
