It was known that Paige Bueckers was going number one in the 2025 WNBA Draft Monday night in New York City. She was asked what it was actually like to hear her name called, what was going through her mind and about the hugs that she had with Azzi and Geno. What was that moment like for her, and she said, “Yeah, you don't ever want to assume anything in life. Nothing is guaranteed, so for this moment to be here and it actually happen, it's nerve-racking. You just have a level of excitement, nervousness, bittersweet feeling, knowing that my journey at UConn is over, but excited for the next one to begin.” wnba #wnba #wnbadraft #newstalknewenglandsports #newstalknewengland #newstalk #sportsnews #basketball #sports
