The 2025 WNBA The season may not have gone well for the Dallas Wings in the standings, but the team’s goaltender and rookie of the year Paige Bueckers successfully marked his arrival in the W. The former UConn star averaged 19.2 points, 3.9 rebounds and 5.4 assists per game, revealing himself as the future icon of the league.
Bueckers is currently competing in three-on-three Unrivaled. She made her league debut earlier this year for Breeze BC. Thanks to Paige’s magic on the court, the team qualified for the playoffs while securing fourth place in the standings.

Bueckers recently shared a post on his Instagram. There was a carousel of photos from her photo shoot for a commercial. Bueckers was part of luxury brand Coach’s new campaign called “Explore Your Story.”
Sharing his experience of the advertising campaign, Bueckers simply wrote“That Coach shoot in London I once talked about.” She clearly seems to be enjoying her offseason in the best way possible amid continued uncertainty over the upcoming WNBA season.

At this time, the players’ association and the league have not yet reached common ground on the collective bargaining agreement. The next deadline for a possible solution is March 10, to avoid any unexpected delays.
Although there is a possibility of the 2026 WNBA season being canceled, Bueckers believes there is no cause for concern. Speaking to Elle as part of its Coach campaign, the Wings guard was clear that “there will be a season”.
