Paige Bueckers is creating waves in the WNBA as a rookie. The former UConn Huskies star is proving to be an incredible asset for the Dallas Wings. Her consistency and potential to lead are well-noted. However, she’s yet to have a huge impact like Caitlin Clark.
Many believe that Clark is the face of the WNBA. There’s no doubt that the All-Star made a significant contribution to the sport. At the same time, Bueckers had an extraordinary run by winning the NCAA Championship, something that Clark will never have. Fans are aware of Paige Buckers and her incredible achievements even before she entered the WNBA. Yet, Clark stands tall to outrun her opponent when it comes to fame.
