Otega Oweh is making waves in the SEC this season, and the numbers back up the hype. As of February 7, 2026, Oweh has scored 20 or more points in 9 of his 11 SEC games, including an impressive five-game streak, showcasing a scoring consistency that few can match.
His season highs came during consecutive SEC matchups against Arkansas and Oklahoma, where he scored 24 points in back-to-back games, proving he can rise to the occasion when it matters most. Beyond those standout games, Oweh has recorded double-digit points in every game this season, totaling 24 straight games with double figures — a testament to his relentless consistency.
What makes Oweh even more dangerous is his impact in conference play. According to Yahoo Sports, he had only two 20-point games outside of conference play but has transformed into a dominant scoring force in the SEC. His ability to elevate his game against tough opponents is turning him into a go-to scorer for Kentucky.
Oweh’s career numbers also highlight his significance. With 24 career 20-point games at Kentucky, he ranks second for 20-point games against SEC opponents since 1996-97, trailing only Antonio Reeves. His 17+ 20-point games against SEC teams underline a rare level of sustained excellence, putting him among the program’s elite scorers over the past 25+ years.
As the Wildcats continue their SEC campaign, Oweh’s scoring streak and consistency make him a central figure in Kentucky’s push for conference dominance. If he keeps this pace, he could etch his name even deeper into Kentucky basketball history — and NBA scouts are certainly taking notice.
