SHOCKING NEWS:Kentucky wildcats best player rejected terms and conditions and insisted leaving due to
Former Louisville basketball player Chinanu Onuaku issued an apology on social media Tuesday afternoon, a day after his involvement in an incident with former Kentucky Wildcats in a game in Freedom Hall. The UK-affiliated La Familia defeated The Ville in the quarterfinals of The Basketball Tournament — a 64-team, single-elimination event better known as TBT — and the matchup of former college rivals was marred by a postgame brawl involving several players.
La Familia team member Nate Sestina, who played for the Wildcats during the 2019-20 season, told reporters afterward that Onuaku, who played for U of L from 2014 to 2016, had spit in his face. Video from the court confirmed Sestina’s claim. “I want to apologize for my actions following last night’s game,” Onuaku posted on his X account. “I let my emotions and pride for my university overcome me in the moment. I love my UofL and I love this town. L’s up.” Sestina was among several La Familia players and officials that flashed the “Ls down” hand signal — a gesture used to mock U of L — immediately after clinching the victory. Sestina said Onuaku objected to the gesture on Louisville’s former home court.
