Huskies standout guard Paige Bueckers is preparing for a showdown against freshman star Caitlin Clark and Iowa in a Sweet 16 matchup in the NCAA Women's Basketball Tournament. Former UConn and WNBA star Diana Taurasi is quick to rave about Bueckers' talent.
Taurasi, who played at UConn from 2000 to 2004, said Bueckers is a special player.
"The first game I watched her play, I watched the first quarter, I told Penny and then gave a text to Coach Auriemma after the basketball game and said she's the best player in basketball already for the simple fact that she can pass," Taurasi told TOGETHXR in a video.
