Despite the injury, Oweh still led Kentucky with 24 points in an 85-77 road win over Arkansas on Saturday. Early indications are that he’ll be able to suit up on Wednesday night against Oklahoma — Oweh’s former team — as well.

Oweh is in the midst of a potential all-SEC season for Kentucky. He’s averaging over 16 points and 2.5 assists per game for a Kentucky team that has significant postseason aspiration. The Wildcats are currently 6-3 in conference play and are only two games back of Texas A&M for first place.

Kentucky has dealt with numerous injuries this year, most notably with starting guard Jaland Lowe set to miss the rest of the season due to a shoulder injury.

Kentucky and Oklahoma will tip off at 9 p.m. ET on Wednesday night in Lexington.
