Otega Oweh Shocks Kentucky Fans: Marries Long-Time Ex in Secret Ceremony! Mark Pope Declares, ‘He’s Our Game-Changer!’ – A-List Celebs & NBA Stars Like LeBron and Denzel Spotted at Lavish Wedding

LEXINGTON, KY — Kentucky Wildcats star Otega Oweh stunned Big Blue Nation this weekend—not with a buzzer-beater or transfer news, but with a secret wedding that has the internet in a frenzy.

Oweh, known for his explosive play on the court, quietly tied the knot with his long-time ex-girlfriend in a private, star-studded ceremony at a luxury estate outside Los Angeles. According to sources, the event was kept under wraps until photos began surfacing online showing none other than LeBron James, Denzel Washington, Kevin Durant, and even Drake in attendance.

Fans were left shocked and thrilled. “I thought we were about to hear he was entering the draft,” one Kentucky supporter posted. “Instead, he’s out here marrying the love of his life and partying with LeBron!”

Head coach Mark Pope, who recently praised Oweh’s maturity and leadership, had nothing but support for his star guard. “He’s our game-changer—on and off the floor,” Pope said. “This is a special moment in his life, and we’re all proud of him.”

While many wondered if this life event might affect Oweh’s focus heading into the 2025–26 season, sources close to the team say the opposite is true: Oweh returned to practice energized, motivated, and fully locked in.

With a renewed mindset, a championship-caliber roster, and now some A-list buzz surrounding the program, Kentucky may just have more star power—and focus—than ever. And for Oweh, it seems both love and basketball are winning.
