Bueckers confirms she'll enter 2025 WNBA draft

SPOKANE, Wash. -- UConn guard Paige Bueckers confirmed to former Huskies star and ESPN analyst Rebecca Lobo on Friday that she will enter the 2025 WNBA draft.

There had been rumors that Bueckers did not want to play for the Dallas Wings, who have the No. 1 overall pick. She is projected to be the top selection. After the draft lottery in December, a source indicated to ESPN that Bueckers' preferred destination would be the Los Angeles Sparks, who received the second pick in the lottery but later traded it to the Seattle Storm in the blockbuster Jewell Loyd-Kelsey Plum deal.

That led to speculation that Bueckers could return to school or even play for the Unrivaled League for a year.

There were also questions of whether Bueckers would want to wait to join the WNBA until after a new collective bargaining agreement was agreed upon.

But Lobo posted on social media that Bueckers will indeed enter the upcoming draft.

Bueckers has indicated multiple times that this would be her final season at UConn and she would be going pro. She is having another big season, averaging 19.2 points on 54.2% shooting with 4.8 assists and 4.4 rebounds per game.

Bueckers and the Huskies are making an NCAA tournament run and face Oklahoma in the Sweet 16 on Saturday.
