UConn Huskies star Paige Bueckers has officially become the first overall pick of the 2025 WNBA Draft to the Dallas Wings, confirming what everyone had projected.
The 2025 WNBA Draft began just how everyone expected, as UConn Huskies star Paige Bueckers was selected first overall by the Dallas Wings on Monday night.
Last year, it was Caitlin Clark coming out of Iowa as the consensus top selection, and the Indiana Fever made it so when they called her name. Clark went on to win the 2024 WNBA Rookie of the Year, breaking records along the way.
Bueckers has had No. 1 pick potential since she entered UConn. Seeing it come to fruition, fresh off a national title run with her sisters on the court, was « overwhelming » for the new star of the Wings.
