We’re just over a week away from the NBA Draft withdrawal deadline for college basketball. That means we won’t be waiting much longer to see what Otega Oweh decides to do for next season.
In the meantime, ESPN’s Jonathan Givony and Jeremy Woo have released a new mock draft, which has Oweh going undrafted. Fellow Wildcats guard Koby Brea went 54th to the Indiana Pacers, who just made the Eastern Conference Finals for a second straight year.
For weeks, the buzz has been that Oweh would ultimately return to Kentucky, and the mock draft projections continue to show why. While he’s reportedly hoping to get a first-round guarantee from someone, the mock projections suggest he’d be lucky even to be a second-round selection at this stage.
As for Brea, it’s good to see the super senior getting projected to land with a team like the Pacers, who look poised to be one of the top Eastern Conference contenders for the foreseeable future.
