Almost three months ago the Dallas Wings selected Paige Bueckers with the No. 1 pick, and the rookie All-Star has proved to be everything they hoped.

“Credit to Paige,” Wings head coach Chris Koclanes said. “Her mindset and her intention into the mental side of the game, she’s resilient. She’s not discouraged at all. She’s in there, she’s positive. She knows there is a larger vision here and that you’ve got to go through some of this tough stuff early to ultimately get to where you want to go.”
