Paige Bueckers' Five-Word Message Reveals Her Thoughts On Nika Muhl

UConn Huskies women's basketball star Paige Bueckers was spotted on the jumbotron during the Seattle Storm vs. Chicago Sky matchup. The WNBA posted Bueckers' appearance on X and Beuckers responded back with a message to rookie Nika Muhl and the Storm.

Bueckers was wearing a Muhl jersey, representing her former teammate at UConn. The two played four seasons together for the Huskies, and were known as two of the best backcourts in college basketball.

"You know who I'm rocking," said Bueckers via X.

Muhl and Bueckers have always been extremely vocal about their tight bond. The Croatian native mentioned Bueckers as one of her closest friends, and it's clear with Bueckers' trip across the country that she's rooting for Muhl's success.

During her rookie season with the Storm, Muhl has averaged 0.6 rebounds and 0.1 assists in 2.6 minutes of game action. She hasn't had much of an opportunity to make an impact on the hardwood, but the rookie has mentioned that she's grateful for any chance she gets.

Bueckers is seen as one of the top prospects for the 2025 WNBA draft. During her junior season with the Huskies, she averaged 21.9 points, 5.2 assists, and 3.8 rebounds.

The 22-year-old prospect said that visiting Muhl in Seattle was part of her offseason tour, since she plans on making a couple of trips before heading back to Connecticut for preseason training.

Bueckers made her opinion of Muhl extremely clear, repping the green and yellow with pride.
