Paige Bueckers and her teammates have one goal, which is to win the NCAA championship with the UConn Huskies. Bueckers is having her best season with the team. Being her final run with the Huskies, she’s adamant to win.
The Huskies Guard is poised to join the WNBA and play along with other top stars soon. The Huskies have won the Big East conference with the help of Bueckers. If it wasn’t for her, it’s safe to say the team would have struggled. Likewise, her teammates Azzi Fudd and Sarah Strong played a vital role in carrying the team this far.
Recently, Bueckers, Fudd, and Strong appeared on ESPN’s Sports Center. The trio talked about the successful run this season. While they were discussing, sports reporter Elle Duncan asked all three players what would be the best gift for their head coach, Geno Auriemma.

Auriemma, who’s turning 71 on March 23, won the NCAA championship 11 times. Duncan’s question was not directed to only one person. However, Page Bueckers did not hesitate to chime in first.
The star player said the best gift would be giving Geno Auriemma her 12th NCAA Championship title.
“Your head coach Geno is turning 71 on Sunday. What do you think would be the best gift for him?” Duncan asked.
“A win,” said Bueckers.
Bueckers recently made fun of Auriemma when she was asked what was the best and worst thing about him.
“I would say that the worst thing is he is pretty delusional and he lies and he exaggerates. But the best thing is that he is just like me in all those places,” Bueckers said.
Paige Bueckers Has The Perfect Chance To Give Geno Auriemma His Birthday Gift
The Huskies are up against the Arkansas State Red Wolves before Auriemma’s birthday. Winning the first round in the NCAA tournament will be the perfect gift. The Huskies will also play Oklahoma State or South Dakota State after Auriemma’s birthday if they win the Red Wolves.

It’s a great opportunity for the team to showcase their challenge. Paige Bueckers has been excellent this season, and her last few games will matter the most. Without Bueckers, it’s hard for the Huskies to make it past the Red Wolves.

The Huskies have a strong chance of winning Arkansas and the next team that comes their way. Bueckers and her squad are all set to have a strong battle and a solid run to win the championship.
