Two UConn legends, Paige Bueckers and Azzi Fudd, are returning to Connecticut as the Dallas Wings take on the Connecticut Sun. The last time they shared the court as Huskies, they won a national championship. Now, they are teammates again in Dallas.
Reunion in Connecticut
The current Huskies are excited to see their former teammates reunite at the next level. Junior UConn guard Kayleigh Heckel said it’s a great opportunity to learn from the best. UConn center Jana Al Alfy played with both of them and got a front-row seat to their chemistry on the court.
The Sun has won its last two games, and Thursday night’s matchup also marks the final WNBA game played at People’s Bank Arena. The current Huskies will be in the stands cheering on Paige and Azzi when tip-off gets underway at 8 p.m.
