Bueckers Delivers Early in WNBA Debut — and She’s Just Getting Started

Paige Bueckers has been under the microscope since she landed on campus as a generationally-hyped top recruit in Storrs; expectations were sky high upon her arrival in 2020. She’s starting the cycle again as the No. 1 pick in this year’s WNBA Draft by the Dallas Wings.

Back in 2020, Bueckers had acclimated to the next level fairly well last time around, hitting double-digit scoring in her first eight games, and later put up 30+ in three straight games.
