Personal Bio/PreCareer Summary

Oscar Tshiebwe grew up initially playing soccer in the Democratic Republic of the Congo but switched to basketball, given his height. Before moving to the United States in 2015 for his freshman year of high school, Tshiebwe attended a basketball camp by Congolese NBA player Bismack Biyombo. As a senior in high school in Hermitage, Pennsylvania, he was named the state's Player of the Year and was a five-star recruit by Rivals and 247Sports. For his freshman year of college, he committed to West Virginia. That season (2019-20), he was named to the Second Team All-Big 12. He played 10 games as a sophomore before leaving the school for personal reasons. As a junior in 2021-22, Tshiebwe transferred to Kentucky. Behind his 17.4 points on 60.6 FG%, 15.2 rebounds, 1.8 steals, 1.6 blocks and 1.1 assists, the center was named National Player of the Year. He followed with a strong senior campaign that landed him on the All-American Second Team. Tshiebwe was one of the best rebounding bigs ever in college basketball despite being 6-foot-9. He's best as a weighty bully but still possesses great footwork and a long wingspan, which allows him to be effective around the basket on both ends of the floor. He can protect the rim and run screen-and-rolls. It's possible Tshiebwe turns into a passable mid-range shooter, given his solid free-throw percentage (72.9 percent as a senior). Given Tshiebwe's rebounding dominance in a bulky frame, he draws natural comparisons to Andre Drummond and Steven Adams, though he's about two inches shorter than both players. Despite the center's accolades, he may have to fight for a roster spot as a rookie, but some teams need a rebounder off the bench that could use his skillset. It may be tough for him to eventually become a starter, but there's a pathway for Tshiebwe to become a reliable backup big.

Strong double-double in G League
CIndiana Mad Ants   G League (Pacers)
April 1, 2024
Tshiebwe racked up 20 points (7-13 FG, 3-3 FT), 14 rebounds and two assists across 38 minutes Saturday in the G League Indiana Mad Ants' 127-118 win over the Osceola Magic.
ANALYSIS
Coming off a 23-point, 20-rebound effort in Friday's win over Osceola, Tshiebwe put forth similar production in the second leg of a back-to-back set. Tshiebwe hasn't blocked a shot in three of his last five games, but he still presents a formidable two-way paint presence for opposing clubs to contend with. The two-way player will presumably stick with the Mad Ants for Tuesday's playoff game against the Delaware Blue Coats after he finished the G League season with averages of 16.4 points, 16.1 rebounds, 1.8 assists, 1.0 steals and 0.8 blocks in 26.8 minutes over 33 appearances.
