Dallas Wings teammates Paige Bueckers and Azzi Fudd have disclosed that they ended their romantic relationship more than a year ago, before Fudd was selected by the franchise in the WNBA draft. Bueckers, speaking about the situation, emphasized that Fudd "was drafted because she deserved it," underscoring that the decision was based solely on merit.
The pair previously won a national championship together at the University of Connecticut before reuniting as professional teammates in Dallas this past season. According to Bueckers, they have already completed one WNBA season together since the breakup.
The revelation came in a story published on November 6, 2026, by contributing writer Andy Backstrom. Both players remain key figures for the Wings as they continue their careers in the league.
