The announcement, accompanied by candid photos of the proposal, was met with an outpouring of love from teammates, fans, and even rivals across the NCAA landscape.
The 21-year-old guard, who has steadily become one of the Wildcats’ most exciting players, revealed that the couple is already making preparations for their wedding, with a date tentatively set for next summer. For Oweh, who has balanced the demanding life of a Division I athlete with his academic and personal commitments, this milestone reflects not just love but also maturity and stability—qualities that coaches and scouts alike admire both on and off the court.
Beyond the romance, this moment resonates with the wider Kentucky basketball community. Wildcats fans, known for their fierce loyalty, have embraced Oweh’s journey since his arrival.

As the Wildcats prepare for another challenging season, Oweh’s engagement adds a unique dimension to the team’s story. It’s a reminder that while basketball may define a career, life’s most important victories often happen off the court. For Kentucky fans, this celebration isn’t just about rings on fingers—it’s about the promise of a bright future filled with both sporting excellence and personal joy.
