Former great Kentucky forward Oscar Tshiebwe has been doing great so far in the NBA G-League with the Indiana Mad Ants, as he continues to put up massive rebounding performances just as he did at Kentucky.
In Wednesday’s game, Tshiebwe went off for 20 points, 28 rebounds, and 4 assists in a 117-107 win against the Motor City Cruise. With Tshiebwe’s 28 rebounds in the performance, he set a team record for the Mad Ants, and he has been performing well in other games for his current team. He got quite close to the G-League record of 31.
In another game earlier this season, he had 23 rebounds against the Sioux Falls Skyforce. Through the four games he has been playing he has been averaging 22.3 points, 20.5 rebounds, and 2.5 assists per game. If he continues to do this, Tshiebwe may have a chance to get called up to the NBA before long.
Even one teammate, who plays on the Indiana Pacers, NBA All-Star Tyrese Haliburton has some high praise for the big man, calling him “the greatest rebounderalive.”
Oscar Tshiebwe the best rebounder alive!!
