Oklahoma-turned-Kentucky guard **Otega Oweh** was selected **41st** overall in the **2026 NBA Draft**,coming off a mega **senior** season in Lexington.

In **2025-26**, his **second** year as a **Wildcat** (following **two** with the **Sooners**), Oweh wowed in 36 GP (32.8 MP/G) with:

- 18.6 PPG
- 4.8 RPG
- 2.7 APG
- 1.8 SPG

That season, there were just **nine** NCAA Division I men's players (including **Oweh**) to average at least **18.5** PPG, **4.5** RPG, **2.5** APG, and **1.5** SPG. The other **eight**: 

**18.5-19.5 PPG**  
1\. Javontae Campbell - 18.7 PPG, 4.5 RPG, **5.1 APG, 3.0 SPG** (32 GP, 34.1 MP/G)  
2\. Rowan Brumbaugh - 19.2 PPG, 4.9 RPG, 3.5 APG, 1.6 SPG (33 GP, **36.1 MP/G**)  
3\. Chaze Harris - 19.2 PPG, 4.8 RPG, 4.9 APG, 1.6 SPG (33 GP, 31.8 MP/G)

**19.5-20 PPG**  
4\. Kahmare Holmes - 19.5 PPG, 5.7 RPG, 2.7 APG, **2.0 SPG** (26 GP, 31.9 MP/G)

There were only ****two** players besides Oweh in ****2025-26** to shoot ****51+** 2P% (min. 365 2PA), ****33+** 3P% (min. 135 3PA), ****73+** FT% (min. 215 FTA), and ****both** were ****freshmen** from earlier:  
  
1\. [Cameron Boozer](https://lemmonlabs.io/tag/cameron-boozer/?ref=lemmonlabs.io) \- 236/384 2P/2PA ****(61.5%)**, 54/138 3P/3PA ****(39.1%)**, 221/280 FT/FTA ****(78.9%)**

There have been ****17** other NCAA DI players besides ****Oweh**, ****Boozer**, and ****Dybantsa**, since ****1980-81**, to meet those shooting thresholds in a ****single** season.  
  
Of those ****20** total, ****Oweh** was ****one** of ****12 seniors**. ****Boozer** and ****Dybantsa** are the ****only** ****freshmen** to hit those marks in the last ****45+** years!  
  
For fun I, the ****two sophomores** to do it:  
  
1\. [****Ja Morant**](https://lemmonlabs.io/tag/ja-morant/?ref=lemmonlabs.io) (2018-19) - 208/374 2P/2PA (55.6%), 57/157 3P/3PA ****(36.3%)**, ****221/272 FT/FTA (81.3%)**

FWIW (not sure WIW), the ****three** to reach those baselines in ****1990-91** (****Ford** \- MVSU, ****Rogers** \- Alabama St., ****Day** \- Arkansas) were all located within a ****\~13,500** square mile [area](https://www.mapdevelopers.com/area%5Ffinder.php?polygons=%5B%5B%5B%5B32.36258870506982%2C-86.29343231028307%5D%2C%5B36.097061789199735%2C-94.17034135808481%5D%2C%5B33.51902677653649%2C-90.34405061939621%5D%2C%5B32.36258870506982%2C-86.29343231028307%5D%5D%2C%22%23AAAAAA%22%2C%22%23000000%22%2C0.4%5D%5D&ref=lemmonlabs.io)??
