Paige Bueckers, the UConn basketball star, has announced her decision to return to the University of Connecticut for the 2024-25 season, foregoing the 2024 WNBA Draft. This announcement was made during Senior Night, where Bueckers stated, 'This will not be my last senior night here,' indicating her plans to play for a fifth season at UConn. The news has been confirmed by multiple sources, including Geno Auriemma, UConn's head coach, who expressed no surprise at Bueckers' decision, despite not having a prior confirmation from her. Auriemma recounted Bueckers' indecisiveness during her recruitment, humorously noting he had to threaten her to make a decision. Bueckers' return, under the sentiment 'Not done yet,' is seen as a significant boost for the Huskies, with expectations for her impact on the team's performance in the upcoming season.
