Paige Bueckers was propped up to become the next FACE of women's basketball …
Her come up in women’s high school basketball was unlike anything we’ve EVER seen before!
She had the entire basketball world talking about her, and people were ready to call her the next WNBA star when she was still in high school…
Fast forward to today, she has had a great run at UCONN and looks to continue to develop and elevate her game. And now with the recent senior class of Caitlin Clark, Angel Reese, and others heading to the WNBA, it looks like Paige will become the face of women’s college basketball next year…
But how GOOD is Paige Bueckers ACTUALLY?
We’ll dive into the INSANE rise of Paige Bueckers from her high school days, reflect on her INCREDIBLE run at UCONN so far, and discuss how we think she’ll develop at the next level of her basketball career… - Sport
Will Paige Bueckers be the next FACE of college women's basketball next year? Let us know in the comments below!👇
I don't think so because she picked a political side. She's woke leftist who don't watch sports enough to build hee up like that. Normal people don't want options pushed on them so they won't watch her is my opinion.
Juju hasn't picked a side political wise. I think she could be the new face.
@@davidclos6193stop making up lies… what’s wrong with you?
@violetforpb hmm look it up she wants to do repercussions to Blake people for something she or anyone alive has ever did. She did a speech on it. Woke!!!
@@violetforpbJordan didn't take a side he said Republicans need shoes to when asked. Paige took a side
I feel like we didn’t see Paige’s full potential this year since she just had a acl injury
Yep❤....and Page is MORE athletic than Angel Reese😎🥳🙂
....look up Dayton Forsythe also, he has has incredible potential and he will show it when he plays for the Oklahoma Sooner Basketball team next year🙂😎🥳
yeah. i don’t believe she’s had a normal offseason in college yet, always dealing with injuries and rehab. she’s gonna put in work this offseason
@@elizabethxiao7149 EVERY ATHLECTIC GRAUD COULD BURN PAIGE
@@giffysstiffy8874giffytuck
WTF? I'm not even an Angel Reese fan and that was such a ridiculous comment. Angel would swat away and Beckers ball dare she try to even come near Reese. Oh my God. Lmfao.
The multiple ACL injuries really slowed her down. Paige is a generational talent.
I've been a Fan of Paige since her High School days. She's really the only reason I watch Women's Basketball. This is one of the better videos covering Paige's Basketball career. You didn't talk about her International play though: Honors: 2019 FIBA U19 World Cup MVP (CC was on this Team); 2019 USA Basketball Female Athlete of the Year. Gold Medals: 2019 FIBA U19 World Cup, 2018 Youth Olympic Games, 2018 FIBA U17 World Cup, 2017 FIBA Americas U16 Championship.
International Tournament Titles: 2018 Latvia U17 International Invitational, 2018 Spokane Hoopfest (3x3), 2018 USA Basketball 3x3 National Championship.
Caitlin Clark is much better.
@@19761999
Not even !!! PB is multi dimensional and has a higher bb IQ…..best woman player out there
Got her team to a final four every year she played. She's pretty damn good. Hope we get to see her as point guard next season.
Caitlin got her team to the Finals two years in a row. Not UConn or SC. But IOWA. You put Bueckers on Iowa and they would never come close to making it to the Final Four.
@@trhansen3244What does cc have to do with this? Pull her pants up when you’re done😂
@@TaylorBlossom-pw2pf You are just jealous of Caitlin Clark.
@@trhansen3244 I’m not jealous. Her fanbase is constantly insulting other players in order to uplift her. You being a prime example. I’m sure she wouldn’t agree with this nasty behavior.
@@trhansen3244 Who put Iowa out of sweet 16 Clarks freshman year?
No weakness, except for being unselfish. PB is a basketball savant. The best analogy is if this is baseball, PB hits for above-average with power, while CC hits a lot of home runs. HR is sexier and that is why CC received the most attention.
High offensive usage. Doesn’t translate well to the W.
@@kevdebable If this is baseball, PB would have fewer strikeouts and bat above 300 while CC would bat 250 and have more HR and strikeouts. They are both very good players, comparing them is like splitting hairs.
@@kevdebableit’s cuz iowa plays their whole game thru caitlin while uconn is a more balanced team. not to downplay caitlin’s talent but she should be putting up higher numbers like that because the team is built around her, paige much much less so.
@@goandtriponaknife4340 It's not a ''balanced'' team when they get half of the top (5stars) each year. That's a monopoly - which is why WBB had been dead on the vine for decades. (No one but homers like monopolies and stars can't shin on them either - so there is zero fan base development. Fans want parity and organic development, as Clark/Iowa just proved to us).
@@kevdebable You are not too bright, are you? Basketball has different types of offense systems and your assists can be low or high based on the system you operate. The number of assists doesn't translate to one who is better than the other.
I’m exited for this new generation to improve the WNBA
As long as the LGBTQ is infecting the WNBA it won't endure.
I did not watch basketball until Paige. For years, I really enjoyed watching Paige. I loved watching her skills. When she was hurt, I stopped watching basketball. I do not care of political talk from sports or actors. Never really watched Caitlin. But I am super happy for Caitlin. I will watch her games with FEVER. I can’t wait to see both girls in the league. (Like Larry and magic…lol)
Kind of like Nikola Jokic she wants to get her team involved so she passes more than she should at times. Geno wants her to shoot more but she just plays good basketball and doesn’t want to force shots. If she decides to shoot more and extend her range she will be as popular as CC
jokic won't disappear in crucnh time like paige
page is that girl just a baller shes going #1 next year
shhe didnt get drafted?
@@FPSAlann Wants to play another year at UConn due to all the time she has been injured.

@@cobra7282 uconn will never won a ring with paige
At least that's how she planned it, she knew Clark or even Brink would go before her.
If Paige were a little more selfish, instead of being pass first, she would rack up crazy numbers.
That reeks of excuse.
@@trhansen3244 Not at all, just honest observation of Paige. Watch her games, you'll see.
@@trhansen3244It’s really just the truth. I can tell you don’t watch her.
If she’s pass first why doesn’t she have a lot more assists. She’s not in the top five in 23-24 despite being completely healthy. She may have been really good but Uconn would have got her to conform to Geno’s template. I wonder how she would have done if she’d gone to Iowa. Probably would have her game in full bloom.
@@EetsBackI can't find Iowa on a map.
Next season will be all about Paige and JuJu and I'm down for it.
I agree, Juju is the real deal.
paige ain't beat sc
@@lecowardjames Few teams have, not sure of your point.
@@colpul2103 paige blew the game,she disappeared in 4th QTR,you ain't winning championship,coz you just lack of leadership and heart to win it all🤫she are too soft and overhyped🤮
@@lecowardjames Paige single handily bear SC her freshman year - scored 30 points.
Paige is great but I think Geno needs to assess his training, rest and recovery program. His team has way too many injuries!
Maybe you're right but being injury-plagued for two years out of the last thirty is certainly not a great indicator.
Also, a lot of the sensation about the injuries didn't take into account that it's a player responsibility to provide accurate injury history for good preventative care, also players have their own doctors which they have a perfect right to but then conflicts in care arise especially with them maybe training in the offseason with their own basketball trainers not well versed in iso and physiometrics. A good portion of the players injury happened away from the season. Paige had an ankle injury not taken care of prior to her freshman season that contributed to the knee destabilization. I understand they want to play but they also have to be smart, this time though she took the time - she hated it, but it was the best thing.
The injuries started to happen when she arrived. Before that, it was in a season in the 2000s.
@@u2nice3079 He had 5 players who had injuries this year that kept them on the bench that is a lot!
Why did Sue and Dee bring up Paige vrs Clark in the final four ? Why do you bring it up in an analysis of Paige’s game?
LOL, saying WNBA players are jealous is ridiculous. Sue Bird featured Caitlin Clark in an episode of her ESPN+ show and has made several supportive comments about her. Also, saying Paige is going to make more money staying in college next year is also not accurate. Her NIL deals will transfer to endorsement deals once she goes pro. She will likely earn even higher in endorsements because she'll have more time throughout the year to work with those brands.
But I appreciate the work put into the video and the stats.
Nah there are some real haters in the wnba, bird just isn't one of them. She's real. DT on the other hand is such a hater. She ought to be glad CC is bringing eyes to the league. DT is getting old and is not the dynamic player she used to be when she had ALL the hype.
Being the face of college basketball next year and making a ton of money with the NIL are not the primary reasons for Paige to stay at UCONN for an additional year. Her quest for a National Championship for UCONN oversees any other goal. Why? To some it doesn't make sense. Paige is a 'lifer' and she has endured injuries which may have cost UCONN the chance to win a National Championship while she played there. Next year will give her one more chance to do it and the UCONN roster will be full of outstanding players to support her.
In direct answer to your question, YES, she will be the face of college basketball. There are many star players who might compile higher scoring numbers but no one, I repeat, NO ONE can put together a skill package like she can. A lot of what she contributes for a winning team are not on the stat sheet. They have to do with her wonderful personality and her 'team comes first' approach to the way she plays the game. If she feels it is necessary to 'take over a game', she will, but otherwise she would rather share the spotlight with her teammates. And her strength is her faith. She is a kind, caring and loving human being and people who follow her don't just admire her as a player, they also love her. I do.
wouldn't it have to be in small caps for it to be an actual repeat?
@@destinypirate The caps indicate the same message will be spoken again but this time with additional emphasis.
Most of your comment I agree with but "she has endured injuries which may have cost UCONN the chance to win a National Championship while she played there"? She dragged UCONN to three Final Fours and a National Championship game. You really think UCONN would have made it that far without Paige?
@@Lobo1971-zz7zm there are so many reasons why Paige is better than Caitlin I put those in my first level comment on this video
@@Lobo1971-zz7zm I'm suggesting while she sat on the bench for almost 2 years she couldn't help the team reach the ultimate goal. If she was on the court with Lou Lopez and Dorka for a full season, well, we'll never know. But, that's what I meant.
Bueckers remains the best all around player in women's college ball. She's been that way since the day she arrived at Uconn in 2020. Given the growth of women's basketball, and if Paige's injuries remain a thing of the past, her generous gifts will be common knowledge soon enough.
Very good but she’s too damn unselfish
Many would call that an attribute - a team player.
@@richardkuyath3590 it’s definitely a good weakness because outside of that she really doesn’t have any at all. She should just be more selfish when it’s crunch time.
@@richardkuyath3590yeah I don’t think WNBA scouts will mind it
Nobody ever mentions that Paige came back from 2 knee injuries and immediately played the forward when she’s been a point guard. I think that’s the most impressive part
PB was the best to me last season...the key difference between her and Caitlin to me is PB is a two way player and a beast defensively as well as offensively . Definately the face of the game ALONG with JUJU who is coming and will rival her next season...
Best All-Rounder Player!!!
I haven't seen Caitlin that much but I'm not sold that she's better than Paige.
Paige can guard point, wing and even power forwards. I haven't seen CC excel on defense.
But they didn't give her challenging assignments, so who knows.
I often try to find a comp in the Twentieth Century NBA for players, because I stopped following men's basketball in the Nineties.
Caitlin is Magic or Bird (they are practically the same player if you ignore race) a bit more like Bird because of the shooting
Paige is MJ, just as much offense and more defense.
The spectre of injury haunts PB but otherwise she's the GOAT
One played with 5 stars the other played with half a star.
Hahahaha
Nope Juju MJ. Buckets is more like Lebron.
Stop it. Nobody called even MJ the GOAT while he was still in college 🤣
I do think PB is more well-rounded. But, CC has transcendent shooting ability that really morphs the floor.
Paige is good enough to lead her team of two seniors - Mulh and Edward’s - herself, and four freshmen to the final four! That is how good Paige is!!! Hope her new teammates stay healthy for her next season for a chance at the championship!
UConn gets the best of the best EVERY year. Not hard to take it to a Final Four. These teams are always STACKED
@@rollinhawkins4417 half their team was injured this year making the final four was unexpected and an impressive accomplishment considering that
After watching every one of Bueckers's college games (many of them multiple times) and a dozen or more high school games, I consider this a very well written and presented episode. You've put together a fair and well-rounded report, covering most of Paige's highlights! I very much look forward to 2024-2025! Thank you.
ADDICTED TO BUCKETS !!! ❤️🔥❤️🔥❤️🔥
overrated
Also addicted to Buckets. So fun to watch
@@lecowardjames bro she will cook you 1v1 stop it 😂
👍👍
@@user-sy8zj5cz1l paige sucks
Sue Bird, Diana Taurasi, and Breanna Stewart are all UConn graduates, so there might be some bias. Clark is an unparalled superstar scorer, a good passer, and clutch player. Pais is a very good scorer, a phenomenal passer and clutch player. However, this year Paige also added better defense (blocking shots) to her game. I think where Paige is better than Clark is her exceptional court vision (she is. point guard), anticipating plays before they even occur. Paige definitely would average more PPG than what has now because she prefers to pass than shoot! Auriemma constantly yells her to shoot more, which is highly unusual.
I don't think you can say she's a better passer than Clark. My goodness, Caitlin led the nation in assists!! And scoring!
@@user-xn7tq1qh5r paige is special, but i dont see the same level she had before the acl
I think Paige and Caitlin are both stellar players. Caitlin is by far the more confident player of the two with a higher playing IQ. Caitlin is by far the better shooter especially from range. I think they are equally as good at passing. Paige plays better defense than Caitlin for sure. But Caitlin wasn't needed that much in that capacity, and they needed to keep her out of foul trouble because Iowa couldn't afford her fouling out. If you look at the stats from this past year. Caitlin stats are better. She tops many list where Paige didn't even crack the top 5!
Wish you would remove the jealously argument from your videos. They worked their butts off and let’s be real about bias. It’s ridiculous to not look at things in context. This video was good until you went to Caitlin. I thought this video was about Caitlin. 🙄
@@user-xn7tq1qh5r don''t forget turnovers.
She’s very talented
She's a great player
@@bbwng54 facts
She had a standard season on a storied college program. Her first step is slow. She's flat footed
@@barclaydonaldson8863 You need glasses
Love the vids 🔥
Yes! Paige is unlike most other collegiate players... with the possible exceptions of Maya and Stewie (4 straight Finals) ... and we are so fortunate to have her one more year at UConn! :)
2+ years of injuries, *that* is why we heard less about Paige.
She remains the most decorated freshman in the history of the women's game. Bueckers was first, and only freshman to win both the Wooden & AP Player Of The Year, along with every other award for which she was eligible.
I agree with geno, shes tbe best womens college basketball player rn . I agree shes bad to the bone
She’s awesome and great at everything. I didn’t know about CC as all the hype was first on Paige.
Right when she got hurt , that’s when I heard more of cc , I didn’t know of her her first two seasons
But it’s not anymore is it. If Paige was so great she should have scored 40 points in the Final Four and beat Iowa but she didn’t so to hell with Paige.
@@cumulonimbus583 she might be able to if she can change her mindset. She thinks like Stockton instead of Westbrook or Magic instead of Jordan
The NIL and salary talk is always ridicuous. Her NILs would be on top of her WNBA salary. They don't cancel each other which means she actually makes more in the WNBA.
As the most publicized player in college she will actually get more attention than as the 2nd or 3rd most publicized rookie in the pros. More publicity equals higher NIL. The salary in the pros is actually quite small, Clark will only be making $78K next year. Then the following year she will likely be the #1 pick in the draft, again the difference in publicity (and advertising income) between #1 and #2 is large. So total she is in fact likely to make more money by staying in school.
I love Paige❤
Being the best player next year will be tough. Malaysia Fulwili and JuJu Watkins will have something to say about that. Kudos to women's basketball it's definitely in good hands. I don't know who will win player of the year. Both SC's will probably play for the chip. It will be interesting.
I am impressed. After seeing her play in this NCAA tournament, I liked her play. I didn't Know about her injuries, which are saddening for a kid this young and this good. She looks to be recovering nicely, though, and I hope this continues. I had quit watching basketball, especially at the men's pro level. There is too much forgetting the rules of the game, for the benefit of the offense. This is bringing in more money. at the expense of the integrity of the game, in my opinion. Girl's college basketball, though there are some no calls with it also, to a lesser degree, has become, the most interesting, to me, anyway. I plan, next season, to keep better track of it, than I have. Thanks for this interesting and informative post.
She is a great Player, awesome Athlete.
Been said Paige would be the face of NCAAW next with Reese and Clark gone.
Juju will get a lot of attention but the face will be Paige
bueckers is gonna be one of the best in the wnba after her next year in uconn
Huh? I'm what world does having a preference of player = jealousy?
I just like Paige’s style of play. She’s great.
I wonder what Paige is studying in her 5th year of college, and also wonder if she will be back for another year after her 5th year. If she plans on going into the WNBA, I think she should have gone after her senior college year, joining Caitlin, Angel, and others.
College basketball needed her and she needs to secure that bag with her injury history…
i feel like she was encouraged to stay another year so that all the focus could be on Clark this last year and then she can be the next one up for the same hype next season that Clark got this year. It's def good for the sport.
Her and Clark might be teammates in the W. Which would be super fun so watch
She is more of a gamer than Stewart and more versatile than Clark was (but not as dynamic). She will also have to share the spotlight with Ju Ju Watkins, Hannah Hidalgo and Fulwiley. Thise three were too young to challenge Clark's primacy. Next year they will be more mature, more great players sharing greatness. I also hope Buekers doesn't reinjure herself and become the second version of Shea Ralph.
Minnesota’s finest! PB is about to do her thing this coming year 🔥
Looking forward to Paige B. Caitlin Clark and Hailey van lith to be in the WNBA next year.... I love guard play in the WNBA and paint play in the NBA!!!
It's gonna be the Paige and Juju show next season
Probably so, now that the best female college basketball players are moving on.
She is winning the championship next year❤
Nope.
She’s the best but was extremely tired at the end of the season, Geno seldom rests her.
We need to get her on a pitch count!

She's amazing ❤❤❤
If only the ref wouldn't have stopped her from shooting the final shot vs lowa in the semifinal by calling a borderline bad screen. We will never know if Page would have made it and provided another dramatic finish. If only. That really hurt women's basketball.
One of the most painful moments ever for us Huskies fans. That whistle was a nightmare. I'm still not over it, lol.
Don't blame the ref. Ask yourself why Paige wasn't getting touches down the stretch. The best player on your team. One of the best players in the game and arguably the best player on the court at the time... and in the last 5 minutes she stayed in the same corner and barely touched the ball. That's crazy!
I would liked to have seen her take the shot too, but she should've been more of a factor down the stretch in the first place.
It was a good illegal screen foul call. Not to have called that foul would have been totally ridiculous.
@@RichardII_Lionheart Either you are a referee groupie or you don't know anything about basketball.
@@SealedCassettes
Answer these questions, please:
1) Did Edwards’s screen meet the definition for an illegal screen and offensive foul? There is only one right answer to this question: Yes.
2) Why should an illegal screen foul not be called in the last ten seconds of a game.
One of the greats now and going forward.
Thought your video was pretty informative and unbiased, until towards the end.
1. NIL deals follow college players to the WNBA. They don't just stop after they graduate. So they don't just earn a WNBA rookie salary.
2. Bird and Taurasi were asked who they'd pick first between Bueckers and Clark, they didn't just randomly bring it up. They gave their opinion as professional athletes, on who they thought was a better pick skill-wise.
3. You (and many others) need to stop with the narrative that the vets are jealous just because they say that going from college to the WNBA is a big jump, and that the W is not as easy as in college. They're speaking from EXPERIENCE, not from a place of jealousy. (They even admit they had troubles adjusting!) They know what skills are necessary for players to compete at the highest level. By assuming whatever they say is because of jealousy, you're diminishing them as professional athletes who have spent YEARS working hard to stay in a competitive league. It says more about your biasness that you can't trust the words of athletes who know their shit, and aren't afraid to stay objective even though they know that will cause them to be harassed by a certain subset of fans.
Disliked the video because of the exact points you made - thank you for articulating this. Way too many misinformed statements by new 'fans'.
Also sick of this 'face' of women's basketball narrative - Paige herself has said she doesn't want a single spotlight on herself. How many FACES of men's basketball are there?
What never gets talked about with Taurasi is the times that she has praised CC. She is even on record that she thinks CC will be successful in the WNBA because she has an exceptional work ethic. They just want to focus on the quote about the WNBA being a reality check and it will because it is a big jump in competition.
I don't know why ppl just think nil deals suddenly vanish lol
Nah they were definitely hatin on Paige bruh u trippin
I have been watching paige since she was in high school. and she is an amazing cheerleader for womens basketball not to mention her abilities in shooting, passing and court awarness. My biggest problem with Page and I would bet you its her coaches as well, is that if you piss her off on the court her next play will be her being a dog:.scoring, stealing or blocking a shot but the problem is that she does not seem to have the mentality to start and finish the game in that same "dog" mode. She seems to play at slow to medium speed . if page is to be considered up there with caitlin, cameran and angel she needs to get that fire under her ass from somewhere. and it needs to escalate during the game and be continual and consistant not just when some fan pisses her off by yelling out something. i love watchiing her and rooting for her but i find myself yelling at her to move her ass and get in "dog" mode instead of her seemingly lacksadasical running up and down the court. she took the extra year so its up to her to see what type of player she wants to be, "a dog" or just another good female player not able to put it in 100th gear and fire hewrself up to take over a game. i pray its in her to do or she will never be better than an ok playerwho at times looked great
Paige Bueckers is like that!!!! I cant wait to see her next year
Who's her WNBA/NBA comp?
No question Paige is a great player. Unfortunately she has established herself as being injury prone.
I want WNBA 2025 Chicago Sky to Draft pick Paige Bueckers Number 1 Round Pick
Oh no, the ESPN, UConn bias bunch will have PB go to Minnesota.
Paige Bueckers is the best BB player ever - you’ll see
Looking at Paige's NCAA rookie stats, the only average where she beat Caitlin was steals per game, and her points from 3 average. Her season total for assists - *168*, a record at UConn it says here - positively pales besides Caitlin's *214*, as does her *581* points for the season to Caitlin's *799.* (Caitlin only played 1 more game than Paige.)
Paige is obviously a fantastic player, and hopefully she'll do fantastically this season. But it's baffling why she seems to have got all the awards for that season when Caitlin's stats are not just better, but significantly better.
Injuries really suck for sportspersons. All throughout Emma Raducanu's US Open run people were saying 'If she avoids injuries, she's gonna win multiple slams'. 3 years later, she's just come b ack from 8 months off, 3 operations, recovery and rehabilitation and was ranked 302 in the world. Admittedly she just had 2 good wins last week but that still only sees her about 220. I hope Paige is injury-free from here on.
Please understand how much more difficult it is to play with an entire squad of five star players than how easy it was for Caitlin Clark just playing with average players. It's not like there's any bias towards propping up Uconn and the gatekeeper teams over flyover Iowa.
There are so many reasons why Paige is better than Caitlin I put those in my first level comment on this video
@@destinypirate You're just not thinking clearly. If Ms Clark's team mates were so average, and Ms Bueckers were not, Ms Clark couldn't have made twice as many assists as Bueckers and still beaten everyone up until SC. Average team mates would be required to funnel the ball to the star and she would score all the points. That's not what happens.
If you're pleading that there was some kind of unfair handling of Iowa rather than UConn, then you have lost your argument. Because now what you're saying is that Bueckers - blond, blue-eyed, tall - is being artificially prejudiced by the NCAA when she's a better player. There's no logic in that at all.
@@BenjWarrant are you trying to actually be logical? Using the reverse dei argument lol pull your mind out of the hive brother not everything is about race.
Your first statement is laughable, the Iowa supporting cast is equal to the Uconn n team, lololol.
It's not possible that Iowa simply had a player that was that much better and a coach that was that much better -able to carry a supporting cast of average players to the highest level... Totally not possible. 👍
@@destinypirate 1 What's a reverse dei argument?

I agree. All the hype about Clark was fueled by the media and the cat fight with Angel Reese
paigE is the most overrated player................

West blood pressure family delta. Force
AND her collegiate career at UConn is not over! :)
How good is she? She's very very very very good. Will be the premier and best player in college hoops next year along with Juju and that chick with the ghetto name who plays for LSU. Cant remember her name but she is the real deal. Just remembered her name - Flau-Jae. That chick is badass.
Although I'm a UCONN fan, don't forget Hannah Hidalgo from Notre Dame. She put a hurt on the Huskies this year. Very talented and will be just a sophomore next year. 😮💨
I'm a huge Bueckers fan. Team obviously is not close to 2024 Final Four without her.
But what few have said, after Paige hit a 3 mid-2nd QTR to push UCONN lead over Iowa to 28-16, IMO she had opportunities rest of 2nd to really damage Iowa's chances. Instead, 1 of 3 from field (no 3's) and a turnover, as lead was cut to 32-26 at half.
Thanks mainly to Muhl's D (and good team D to support her), Clark shot poorly (7-18 for just 21 pts) & 4 turnovers. But Page also shot poorly (7-17 for 17 pts) & 4 turnovers. Also no steals and only 3 assists.
I hope and expect Bueckers to have a great 2024-25 season. Whichever WNBA team drafts her at #1 will be very fortunate.
PB was WORN out, she can't perform at 40 minutes.

Of course, she is expected to gut it out and be a true champion.
To be fair, Sue Bird said she'd take Caitlin. But all that aside, Paige and Juju are gonna keep the hype going for women's college basketball, but don't sleep on those SC freshmen. Hopefully big days ahead for the women

UConn needs to play more player in every game. No more excuses, Geno! How the hell does Paige, Mika, and Edward’s make the final four with only four freshmen, two not playing much?
Portal is open. Besides, Bettencourt and Berry, others that should continue thru the portal is Patterson, DuChamp, Cadence, and Ice Bradly! Why Brady? Geno already decided that he does not want her to shoot her signature shot!
I believe Heno has decided not let Qadance play until she can rebound! Qadance will never be Aubrey Griffen.
Both Paige and Aubrey are super gifted athletes. That is why they can block shots. Sorry, Qadance wrong team and wrong coach. It is portal time. Consider a transfer to Virginia Tech.
lol you’re wrong on nil not following her
Just got to say - Paige is better....than anyone, ESPECIALLY Caitlin (so totally over rated) Clark. I know this because I can see that she is better. My eyes told me Paige is a better shooter, Better! - Her shot is ''smoother'', never mind the slower lower eind up, it's like butter. Better butter! She is a better passer - she just chooses to pass less, because she is too unselfish, Geno says. She has a higher BB IQ - People don't realize the chess like complexity of choosing which 5 star team mate to pass to. It's not like Caitlin had to deal with THAT much pressure, just pass to any average teammate, easy peasy. Paige is WAY more EFFICIENT, and we all know that smart people talk about efficiency, not cave man stats like points, assists and wins. Paige is more efficient because she only shoots when all of her 5 star team mates help her get really clean open looks (Now why didn't Caitlin think of that? Boom!). Lastly, Defense. Paige is WAY better on defense. While her 5 star team mates smother their assignments she sags off for passing lane opportunites. But get this! Did you hear that the Fever are installing a massage chair at half court? This is for Caitlin because she doesn't play D, she will just hang there until getting the outlet and making an easy 50 foot bounce pass between the 4players running full speed. (This is because Iowa was the last 6 vs 6 state and Caitlin is inspired by past Iowa greats who only played offense. True story.) - This just in! Paige Transfers to the University of Minnesota! Wow, turns out Paige was so bored in UConn, and since Caitlin showed us that people don't REALLY love monopolies that much, Paige realized she could easily just take a team of 3 stars all the way to win the title - which Caitlin couldn't do - but Paige will because she's clearly much better.
Here's the attention you wanted.What an incredibly terrible take😂
@@giizodamulla7492 you do realize that your opinion is not an authority, try making a single argument against a single point
Paige is the best player in the country, but she needs to learn how to be at her best when it counts the most, and win the last game of the season.
Well then you pretty much described why she isn’t the best, didn’t you ;)
she is so tuff
She's not as tough as Clark, she played every game in all 4 years she played, Paige has missed 35 % of her career
@@renovo56 Paige will be better in the league
Simple she’s The best!!!
Why you acting like Juju isn’t going to be the face of college basketball next year too though..
can Page stay healthy? if she can stay healthy she would great
Unlike someone else who got most of the attention in the 2023-2024 season, Paige is a great defensive player.
Paige has more range, for sure.
@@cjbizwoman you said that. I didn't
Great is not the adjective I would select. Decent is closer to the mark.
Yes, she’s taller
How good is Page? She is a PTP’er baby she’s Awesome with a capitol A
Still dont know why she returning to uconn should’ve went to the league
Thankfully for us UCONN fans, she didn't
Haven't watched this, but Paige probably would've been picked over Caitlin if she declared this year. That's how good she is
No one was saying this until after Paige decided to return to NCAAW for next season.
@@RichardII_Lionheart Sht, I’ve been saying it since 2020
We will never know.
Sh e’s very good.
Juju definitely the face but she top 3
Paige Bueckers FUTURE superstar in WNBA?
i need her to be healthy PLEASE PAIGE
