Just In: Paige Bueckers WNBA Draft Speculation Causes Indiana Fever Roast Session
Paige Bueckers WNBA Draft Speculation Causes Indiana Fever Roast Session
The Indiana Fever initially struggled this season, starting with a 1-8 record and lacking chemistry on both offense and defense. Given the team’s youth and limited practice time before the season, this performance was somewhat expected.
However, the Fever’s recent turnaround to a 6-10 record has raised their prospects. Despite this improvement, the Fever are likely to miss out on the top pick in the 2025 WNBA Draft, Paige Bueckers, due to their current record.
A fan of Paige Bueckers went viral after posting on X, “if you’re having a bad day, just remember that paige bueckers will NOT be an Indiana Fever.” This humorous post poked fun at the Indiana Fever’s struggles and Paige Bueckers’ decision to stay at UConn for another season, rather than entering the WNBA draft. The post resonated with fans who were excited to see Bueckers back on the court and appreciated the lighthearted humor.
UConn and Paige Bueckers fans responded to the initial post with a mix of humor and frustration. They joked that Bueckers joining the Indiana Fever would be a disaster, with one fan even posting, “Paige Bueckers you are NOT an Indiana fever!” This playful banter showed the strong loyalty and dedication of the fans to their star player and the university.
The conversation appears to be referencing the 2024 NCAA Tournament, where Caitlin Clark’s Iowa Hawkeyes defeated Paige Bueckers’ UConn Huskies. The fans are likely joking about the upset and the idea of Bueckers joining the Indiana Fever, which would be a significant change for the star player.
