Like the good teammate she was as a UConn Huskies star, Paige Bueckers shared the spotlight of her big WNBA draft night with bestie Azzi Fudd.

After winning the first national title at UConn since 2016, Monday night was about Bueckers going to the next level, and as expected she was selected No. 1 overall by the Dallas Wings.
