UConn guard Azzi Fudd could be following in her girlfriend Paige Bueckers’ footsteps by joining the Dallas Wings next season. Bueckers was the number one overall pick out of Connecticut a year ago, and Fudd has the potential to do the same. However, CBS Sports writer Jack Maloney thinks Fudd needs to become more multidimensional as a shooter if she wants to be the top selection in the 2026 WNBA Draft. “One of the main reasons Fudd returned to UConn for a fifth season was to show that she has more to her game than being a catch-and-shoot specialist. But while she’s shooting the ball better than ever, there are still questions about her ability to create offense — both for herself and others,” Maloney wrote. Notably, Fudd has only taken three off-the-dribble 3s this season, and is 14 of 36 (38.9%) on pull-up jumpers overall, per Synergy Sports. She’s also only taken 24 attempts at the rim, and has made just 50% of them. If WNBA opponents force her off the line, is she going to be able to make them pay? Azzi
