Paige Bueckers, Dallas Wings guard, is taking some well-deserved time off after finishing her rookie season with the team. The Wings did not make it to the playoffs and Bueckers has taken the premature ending of her debut in stride. The highly talented rookie recently shared a number of pictures from her tropical getaway, where she can be seen posing in different outfits in various locations.
The Dallas Wings last played against the Phoenix Mercury, where they won the game with a fabulous 97-76. However, the win came a little too late as the Wings were already shown the door out of the tournament. The Phoenix Mercury will soon be taking on the Las Vegas Aces for the finals of this WNBA season. Meanwhile, Bueckers’ Instagram post got reactions from numerous other WNBA stars, including Angel Reese.
“Tropical tonesss” Dallas Wings star Paige Bueckers, wrote in her Instagram post, sharing a number of pictures of herself relaxing on her vacation.
“Zaddy (surprised face emoji, dashing emoji, fire emoji” Connecticut Sun’s Aaliyah Edwards comments on Bueckers’ post.
“tan mamiiiii (heart eyes emoji)” Chicago Sky’s Angel Reese commented on Bueckers’ pictures.
“Cutie patootieeee” Minnesota Lynx’s DiJonai Carrington added her comment as well.

The WNBA is already gaining plenty of viewership, with players calling for higher salaries for this main reason alone. Recent comments by senior players like Napheesa Collier have drawn the ire of the league with the WNBA itself receiving plenty of backlash for this.
