Florida had zero answers for Oscar Tshiebwe this season

In two games against the Florida Gators in the 2021-22 season, Oscar Tshiebwe has combined to put up totals of 54 points and 33 rebounds for an average of 27 points and 17 rebounds per outing. The 6-foot-9 center hit 11 made field goals apiece in both outings, shooting nearly 65 percent from the floor in the process. The vast majority of that production came against Florida’s best player, 6-foot-11 big man Colin Castleton, who is widely considered as one of the better post players in not only the SEC, but the entire country.

That matchup never once seemed to bother Tshiebwe, though, as he thoroughly outplayed Castleton on both ends of the floor.
