Paige Bueckers might have confirmed her relationship status.
Paige Bueckers Appears to Make Major Personal Announcement Before WNBA All-Star Game originally appeared on Athlon Sports.
It hasn't taken long for this year's No. 1 overall pick in the 2025 WNBA Draft, Paige Bueckers, to make her presence felt at the highest level.
The new face of the Dallas Wings has started all 18 games that she has played and is averaging 18.4 points, 4.1 rebounds, 5.5 assists and 1.7 steals per game. Her strong introduction to the WNBA earned her a starting nod in Saturday's WNBA All-Star Game, where she will be suiting up for Napheesa Collier's Team Collier and face off against Team Clark.
On Thursday, the 23-year-old made her WNBA orange carpet debut as she and her fellow stars from across the league showed off their sense of style in front of hundreds of fans. While Bueckers' outfit certainly turned some heads, an interview that she did with "Wag Talk" has been the biggest story of the weekend thus far.
With the prompt of the interview being "How well do you know your D1 girlfriend," Bueckers fielded questions about the "mystery" person.

While it started with questions about where this person went to high school, what year she won Gatorade Player of the Year and a couple of questions about her parents, it ended with the interviewer asking Bueckers for a girlfriend reveal.
A question that led to Bueckers replying, "Azzi Fudd."
The two had long been rumored to be dating up until June, when Fudd posted a picture of her phone case that said "Paige Bueckers' girlfriend." Before that, there hadn't been any public confirmation from the two star players from UConn's title run this past season.
With Fudd expected to be one of the top picks in the 2026 WNBA Draft and the Wings (6-17) struggling this season, there is a possibility that Bueckers and Fudd can be teammates again.
