Oscar Tshiebwe using his mother’s love, and St. Peter’s loss, as motivation for next season

The Kentucky Wildcats got the unanimous National Player of the Year back on Wednesday, as Oscar Tshiebwe announced that he will be returning for his senior season in Lexington.

“God has told me he’s not done with me yet.” Tshiebwe said during the SportsCenter announcement. “So, I decided. He told me he wanted me to go back to just work, because He’s not done with me in this place yet. I’ll be back again. So I’ll be here next year at Kentucky. I’ll be in the blue in Kentucky next year again.”

The ending to last season was not what anyone wanted to see, and Tshiebwe was one of the players taking the loss the hardest when the final buzzer sounded, as he broke down in tears on the court.
