Oscar Tshiebwe Gifts Kentucky Wildcats 5 Luxury Buses — Game Day Travel Just Got First-Class
Former Kentucky Wildcats basketball star Oscar Tshiebwe has made headlines once again — this time off the court — with a generous gift that’s turning heads in the world of college sports. The 2022 National Player of the Year has donated five state-of-the-art luxury buses to the Kentucky Wildcats men’s basketball program to ease their travel and elevate their game day experience.
The buses, customized for comfort and performance, come equipped with plush seating, onboard Wi-Fi, entertainment systems, and team branding — a clear upgrade from standard team transport. The move not only demonstrates Tshiebwe’s continued loyalty to the program that helped elevate his career but also sets a new benchmark for athlete contributions in college athletics.
“I’ve always said Kentucky is family,” Tshiebwe said in a brief statement. “This is my way of giving back and making sure the guys are traveling in style and comfort. They deserve it.”
Tshiebwe, who played for the Wildcats from 2021 to 2023 before moving to the NBA and pursuing opportunities overseas, remains a beloved figure in Lexington. His blend of humility, faith, and relentless work ethic made him a fan favorite during his time in college.
The university’s athletic department expressed immense gratitude, noting that the gift will have a lasting impact on the program. “Oscar continues to lead by example,” said a UK Athletics spokesperson. “This is more than transportation — it’s a message of commitment, legacy, and love for Big Blue Nation.”
With this heartfelt gesture, Oscar Tshiebwe proves that champions don’t just make plays on the court — they make lasting impacts off it. The Wildcats now ride in style, thanks to one of their own.
