Paige Bueckers Makes WNBA History Against Golden State Valkyries originally appeared on Athlon Sports. Dallas Wings rookie Paige Bueckers, the No. 1 overall pick in this year's WNBA draft, is starting to look more and more like the league's next superstar.
The Valkyries shot 30.3% from the field in the first half and trailed by as much as 11. Janelle Salaün and Tiffany Hayes combined to score 16 points to keep the Valkyries within striking distance as the Wings took a 36-30 lead at halftime.
Even though the Dallas Wings have now lost five of their last six games after Friday's 86-76 loss to the Golden State Valkyries, Paige Bueckers continues to reach new milestones in what is already one of the best rookie seasons in WNBA history.
Refs in the W have been called out a few times in the past. The Indiana Fever's Sophie Cunningham recently got fined $500 for poking fun at them on TikTok. And in a recent game between the Dallas Wings and Los Angeles Aces, rookie sensation Paige Bueckers was spotted making a comment, too.
Dallas guard Paige Bueckers, the No. 1 overall pick in the 2025 WNBA draft, won’t play when the Wings host the Las Vegas Aces. Dallas listed Bueckers out because of “rest.”
The post Paige Bueckers reveals her ‘welcome to the W’ moment appeared first on ClutchPoints.
Bueckers has admitted that she is desperate to partner with a real estate company so that she doesn't have to "pay for a house."
It’s long been rumored, but only in the past month has it become quasi-official that Dallas Wings star Paige Bueckers is in a relationship with her former teammate at Connecticut, Azzi Fudd. The two have been seen together more and more on social media, and were together, too, at the WNBA All-Star weekend.
