Is Kentucky on the cusp of landing its next transfer out of the portal? Mark Pope and his staff are currently hosting Oklahoma’s Otega Oweh on a visit, sources tell KSR.

Oweh, a 6-foot-4, 210-pound combo guard out of Blairstown, NJ, averaged 11.4 points and 3.8 rebounds this past season for the Sooners. He played in 32 games as a sophomore with 28 starts, averaging 24.8 minutes per contest, shooting 49.3% from the field and 37.7% from three.

The former four-star recruit in the 2022 class is coming off visits to Texas A&M and Oregon with Kentucky joining that list of three schools as top contenders.

Oweh will have two seasons of eligibility left at his next stop.

Will that stop be in Lexington? He’s in town now hoping to figure that out.
