Paige Bueckers

23-Year-Old GuardG
 Dallas Wings  WNBA
2025 Fantasy Outlook
Bueckers dealt with injuries in the first half of her collegiate career but led UConn to the Final Four in 2024 and helped the Huskies win the national title in 2025. She was unsurprisingly selected by Dallas with the No. 1 pick in the WNBA Draft and will play alongside another strong guard in Arike Ogunbowale with the Wings. Caitlin Clark made an immediate impact at the professional level as a rookie last year, and Bueckers should have plenty of opportunities to contribute as a scorer despite playing alongside Ogunbowale, who finished second in the WNBA with 22.2 points per game last year. However, Bueckers has less fantasy upside than Clark as a rookie since the UConn product isn't as dominant from beyond the arc and doesn't produce as much as a passer or rebounder. Despite these factors, Bueckers should still be a solid contributor for the rebuilding Wings in 2025 and warrants consideration in the early-to-mid rounds of fantasy drafts. Read Past Outlooks

Bueckers was selected by the Wings with the No. 1 overall pick in the 2025 WNBA Draft on Monday.
ANALYSIS
Bueckers lived up to her expectations as a top recruit during her freshman year in 2020-21 at UConn, but she missed a sizable portion of her sophomore season due to injury and was out for the entire 2022-23 campaign due to a torn ACL. However, she was dominant over her final two seasons with the Huskies, leading the team to the Final Four last year before taking home the national title in this year's NCAA Tournament. In total, she averaged 19.8 points, 4.7 rebounds, 4.6 assists and 2.1 steals in 32.0 minutes per game during her time in college. She'll join one of the league's top scorers in Arike Ogunbowale in the Wings' backcourt, but Bueckers has a skill set to have immediate success in the WNBA, especially after Dallas lost Satou Sabally and Natasha Howard during the offseason. After ending her collegiate career on a high note, the 23-year-old Bueckers has a high fantasy ceiling to begin her time at the professional level.
