Paige Bueckers may have been one of the most hyped-up athletes coming out of high school since Lebron James, and I do not think this is an exaggeration. She has a massive social media following and the expectations for her freshman season are through the roof. When breaking down her first five games two words come to mind: anticipation and efficiency. Let’s dive into the numbers.
Averages: 18.2 PPG, 6.0 RPG, 5.8 APG, 2.4 SPG
Bueckers’ numbers through her first five games have been astonishing. She leads the team in points and assists per game and is second in rebounds behind only Olivia Nelson- Ododa.
