Paige Bueckers delivered a CAREER-HIGH performance when it mattered most! 🔥
•
The UConn star dropped a career-high 40 points—becoming the first player in program history to hit that mark in an NCAA tournament game—and led the Huskies to an 82-59 win over Oklahoma to advance to the Elite Eight! 😤
•
With UConn trailing at halftime, Bueckers flipped the switch, scoring 29 of her 40 points after the break, knocking down six threes, and completely taking over the game. 🤯
•
The projected No. 1 pick in the upcoming WNBA Draft has been on a mission this tournament, already surpassing her previous career-best of 34 points from the second round. 💪
•
Now, the Huskies are one step closer to their 12th national title and their first since 2016. 🏆
•
Can Bueckers lead them all the way? 👀🏀
