Diana Taurasi revealed to For The Win the one unexpected thing on Paige Bueckers' WNBA learning curve, thoughts about retirement and more.

It is no secret the former UConn Huskies guard Paige Bueckers is special. In early April she led the Huskies to a 37-3 (18-0 Big East) record and the AP No. 1 overall rank before cementing her legacy with the Huskies NCAA record 12th National Championship. Less than 2 weeks later, she was drafted No. 1 overall in the WNBA Draft by the Dallas Wings.

Meanwhile, the 6-foot-5 Nelson-Ododa was excelling defensively and on the boards, and she was named the Big East Co-Defensive Player of the Year in 2021. Nelson-Ododa was the No. 19 pick in the 2022 WNBA Draft by the Los Angeles Sparks. After one year with the Sparks, she was traded to Connecticut.
