MORGANTOWN, W.Va. — Bob Huggins isn’t losing sleep — or even interrupting his pandemic-induced marathon-watching of “Naked and Afraid” — to worry about whether Oscar Tshiebwe will be wearing a West Virginia uniform next season.
Tshiebwe entered his name in the NBA Draft pool last week, but left open the possibility of coming back to WVU after receiving feedback from league front offices. Huggins upgraded that status from “possibility” to “near certainty” in a Monday video conference with reporters.
“I fully expect we’re not going to have to worry about it,” Huggins said when asked what next season’s lineup would look like without Tshiebwe.
