Dallas Wings rookie sensation Paige Bueckers is the heavy favorite to take home the WNBA Rookie of the Year award. A lot of sportsbooks even pulled down the odds because they just expect Bueckers to run away with it.

The Dallas Wings were able to knock off the Indiana Fever on Tuesday night by a final score of 81-80. It was an entertaining game, although Caitlin Clark was not on the court to face off against rookie star Paige Bueckers.

UConn star Azzi Fudd gave the easy answer when asked by the Dallas Wings' Paige Bueckers to name her favorite player to watch in the WNBA.

Dallas Wings superstar Paige Bueckers is the runaway favorite to take home the WNBA 's Rookie of the Year award. She's always mentioned Dallas Mavericks star Kyrie Irving as one of her idols, but she has another player who is one of her favorites.

Following the Indiana Fever’s one-point loss to Bueckers and the Dallas Wings earlier this week, Cunningham publicly lamented what she believed were favorable calls for the former UConn point guard.
