This is what it’s all about 🫶 Paige Bueckers took time for the fans who continue to show up for her in Connecticut. 📺

What happened: Ahead of the Dallas Wings' Thursday visit to the Connecticut Sun, Paige Bueckers spent time with fans who have continued to turn out for her in Connecticut. Former UConn teammates Aaliyah Edwards and Azzi Fudd also came out for the matchup, tipping off at 8 p.m. ET on Prime.

Why it matters: Connecticut remains home turf for Bueckers, whose UConn run built a following that has followed her into the WNBA. The return draws that fan base back out and adds a reunion angle to the Wings' trip to Connecticut on a three-game Thursday slate.
