Paige Bueckers certainly didn’t dress for the New York City summer humidity on Tuesday, but she certainly looked like a baller for the Dallas Wings matchup in the Big Apple vs. the New York Liberty.

The 23-year-old Bueckers has been quite impressive her rookie season out of the national champion UConn Huskies, but also with her fit game. She just competed in her first All-Star game where she rocked a unique look for the game, and also crushed earlier on the orange carpet with the the look below.

She also made a splash hard launching her relationship with her former Huskies teammate Azzi Fudd during All-Star weekend where the two were the “power couple.” She got some help getting ready from her girlfriend, too.

Before Tuesday’s big Wings and Liberty game, Bueckers rocked a wild purple jacket upon her entrance in Brooklyn.

She’s got her official PB 5 Dallas Wings bag with her, too, to match her pants.

Entering Tuesday, Bueckers is averaging 18.5 points, 5.5 assists, and 3.9 rebounds and is a lock to win WNBA Rookie of the Year. She also showed she can compete at an All-Star level off the court.
