Paige Bueckers’ next move has been decided, according to WNBA sources.
With the draft less than two days away, there is still some apprehension over the former UConn Huskies guard, although she has confirmed she will be in attendance amid what is considered to be a problematic recruitment year for the league.
Bueckers is expected to be the No. 1 overall pick come Monday. The Dallas Wings currently hold the pick, and one reporter has revealed that there is growing confidence around the league that the former Connecticut standout will sign a contract with the team should they draft her.
“Increasing confidence around the league that Paige Bueckers, if drafted by the Wings, will sign in Dallas,” Howard Megdal tweeted on Saturday.

Megdal added that it would be a massive deal for the team, given that most of the other top prospects opted to remain in college for at least another year.
The likes of Olivia Miles (Notre Dame), Flau’jae Johnson (LSU), and Azzi Fudd (UConn) are all going back to school instead of entering the draft.
There are still some big names set to move up to the pros in 2025, yet none as big as Bueckers.
VIDEO: Some Dude Just Dropped The Cold Hard Truth On Why All Of These NFL Prospects Are “Dating White Women”
Unless this is your first day in America, then you know race relations in this country dominate just everything, and that includes NBA and NFL drafts
During the most recent NFL Draft in Detroit, social media was buzzing as athletes showed up to the red carpet event with their girlfriends and family. Many of the incoming NFL rookies were African-American and were spotted with white women, which has become the usual theme for years.
The same thing happens with the NBA Draft.
This year, the discourse on the NFL Draft and NBA Draft has gotten even louder as African-American women openly pondered why so many of the players never have a partner that is the same race as them.
One guy on TikTok decided to answer that question by revealing that the vast majority of his division-1 friends in college or headed to the league are dating or married to white women and explained why.
He stated that some of them had told him that their white girlfriend looked up to Taylor Swift while their girlfriend looked up to Megan The Stallion. He then states the guy asks how many white women he has seen doing the Megan Thee Stallion challenge as opposed to Black women.
He then dove into another story of a friend who relayed that his Black girlfriend started to request money from him as soon as she found out about his NIL money. She wanted her hair and nails done. He then added that the Black women would be upset if they went to places like Chipotle, and she demanded steak houses.
