Paige Bueckers Had One Word After Dallas Wings Trade originally appeared on Athlon Sports. The Dallas Wings pulled off a big trade on Monday, sending former No. 2 overall pick NaLyssa Smith to the Las Vegas Aces for a 2027 first-round draft pick.

Dallas Wings rookie standout Paige Bueckers did not play in Saturday’s 79-71 win against the Washington Mystics due to a right knee injury, but her absence was no cause for alarm. Wings coach Chris Koclanes said ahead of Saturday’s game that sitting Bueckers, who had been experiencing some soreness, was just precautionary.
