WASHINGTON D.C., DC — It’s not often some of the best UConn women’s basketball players are able to be just fans in the stands but that’s exactly what teammates Paige Bueckers and Azzi Fudd did on Tuesday night.
The popular Husky duo spent time courtside at a WNBA game in Washington D.C. that featured the Mystics and the Las Vegas Aces.
Fudd, who played her high school basketball at nearby St. John’s, was right at home with her best friend Bueckers when WUSA sportscaster Darren Haynes rolled up to interview the UConn stars.
Haynes, who is from New Haven, Connecticut and supports the Huskies, had no problem getting these two teammates to open up. The duo talked about everything from the WNBA to playing 1-on-1 and the rest, as they say, is history.
Watch the full interview above.
