No. 1 WNBA Draft pick Azzi Fudd is about to be reunited with her former UConn teammate, Paige Bueckers. One year after the Dallas Wings took Bueckers, 24, with the top overall pick, the struggling franchise nabbed Fudd, 23, reuniting the once inseparable pair. "I don't think it's fully sunk in," Fudd told reporters at the Monday, April 13 draft. "I don't really have words. It's nothing I could have imagined, the feeling sitting there with my family, with [UConn assistant coach] Morgan [Valley], hearing your name called, being able to walk up there, it's such a surreal feeling. I'm so grateful.
