Something’s off with Otega Oweh. And it is easy to see.
The Kentucky star was supposed to take the next step this season to evolve from breakout junior to SEC Player of the Year-level senior. Instead, he’s plateaued, and in some ways, regressed from who he was just last year.
Of course this comes after his NBA dream was put on hold with scouts telling him that he needed to work on his 3-point shot.
The numbers on the surface don’t scream crisis: 14 points, 4 rebounds, 2.5 assists per game, 45% from the field, 33% from three.
