“I’m just excited for the next step in the journey, wherever that is, whatever that looks like,” Bueckers said. “Just to be able to play in the WNBA, it’s a dream come true. I was just a little girl aspiring to be in the league. The Minnesota Lynx dynasty was everything for me, so to grow up watching Maya Moore, Lindsay Whalen and the rest of that dynasty and to be able to share that experience and be a part of that is surreal to say.”
Fans of Bueckers and the WNBA can tune into the Draft this Monday at 7:30 p.m. EDT, with further broadcast details available here.
