Paige Bueckers gives honest take on 1v1 against GF Azzi Fudd

Paige Bueckers and Azzi Fudd led the UConn Huskies to the 2025 NCAA title. The UConn teammates have been in love for quite some time now, but their love has not diluted their competition at all.

Last month, before the Dallas Wings were set to face the Las Vegas Aces in a road game, Vegas sports reporter W.G. Ramirez linked up with Bueckers for a quick courtside Q&A.

In one of the questions, Ramirez asked Paige Bueckers to pick the winner between her and her girlfriend, Azzi Fudd, in a 1v1 game. Bueckers was brutal in her answer.

"Best-of-7 [race] to 11, I'm winning," the Dallas Wings star said. "A sweep, 4-0. The most she would get is 7, so it's 11-7."

Currently, Azzi Fudd is one of the best players in the country. She also won the NCAA Most Outstanding Player award.

However, throughout her collegiate career, Bueckers was in a class of her own. She averaged almost 21.9 and 19.9 points in her last two years with the Huskies. In her rookie season, Bueckers has shown her elite offensive game, shattering several WNBA and franchise records.
