Azzi Fudd and Paige Bueckers are reunited in the WNBA and are set to become the league’s first power couple.
On Monday, the Dallas Wings drafted Fudd #1 overall in the WNBA draft.

Fudd, who played with Bueckers at UConn, spoke about reuniting with her significant other on the court.
“I’m excited to play again with Paige. I mean, she’s an incredible person, incredible player… it’s gonna be a lot of fun.”
“She’s someone who makes playing basketball easy. Just with the prior experience, that I had to play with her and play off her will only help going into this.
“Our time at UConn was filled with injury…it wasn’t until our last year that we got to play together, and it wasn’t even for a full season, and I think there’s so much left to play on the table, so much uknown, and so much potential, with not just her but the entire Dallas Wings roster.”

While Bueckers confirmed her relationship with Fudd last year, the two have kept a low profile, and some are questioning whether they are still together.
