The former LSU superstar was also the subject of a similar humiliation on social media. She talked about it after the NCAA Elite Eight game. It seems the intention was to show young women’s basketball players in a bad light, which is why the two stars had to speak out. It was an attempt to dampen these young women’s impact on the basketball stage.

Paige Bueckers to carry the flag for women’s college basketball next season

In the golden generation of women’s college basketball players, Bueckers has had to overcome two lost years due to significant injuries. However, with the conclusion of the 2023-24 college basketball season, she managed to re-establish herself as one of the best players in the NCAA.

Going into next season, Bueckers will remain at the forefront of women’s college basketball. Often considered the best of the golden generation of college players, she was overshadowed by Caitlin Clark last season. With Clark now with the Indiana Fever, it leaves the door open for Bueckers to shine.

The senior will aim to lead her UConn Huskies to the NCAA Tournament Finals after bowing out of the Final Four this year. The stage is set for her to light up the basketball stage. Now, she has to fulfill the hype and leave all these obstacles behind. Bueckers has to continue to set alight the trail Clark has set to pass the torch after her final year in college.
