UConn star Azzi Fudd crushes ESPYs red carpet in stunning plunging-neckline dress

Azzi Fudd certainly knows how to make an entrance for an event. While she wasn’t with Paige Bueckers this time, she and the UConn Huskies basketball team hit the 2025 ESPYs in Los Angeles, California, in style.
Fudd, 22, helped lead UConn to its first national championship since 2016, and has since been crushing off the court like at Bueckers’ WNBA draft night where she looked unrecognizable in her glam makeover, followed by a winning shiny black cocktail dress at Bueckers’ after-party.

She also flexed her bikini while on a summer cruise with her whole family.
The biggest story of the summer off the court for Fudd, though, was her revealing she’s “Paige Bueckers’ girlfriend” in a viral post. She’s since traveled to different Dallas Wings games to watch her play, including taking a snuggly selfie and holding hands in the arena.
While Bueckers and the Wings had a game on Wednesday and she wasn’t at the awards show, Fudd and the rest of the Huskies held it down.
