WNBA star Paige Bueckers is putting all the questions about her relationship with Azzi Fudd to rest.

The Wings guard used media day Monday to tell reporters and the public that “me and Azzi’s personal relationship is nobody’s business but our own, and what we choose to share is completely up to us.”

Their romantic relationship got thrown back into the spotlight after the Wings selected Fudd with the No. 1 overall pick in the WNBA draft earlier this month, resulting in questions surrounding how the dynamic of romantic partners playing on the same team would work — something that has happened several times in the league. 

Bueckers publicly announced her relationship with Fudd last summer and has sparsely addressed it since. 

“Me and Azzi have always been the utmost professional,” she said before taking questions from reporters. “We’ve always conducted ourselves as such, and we’ve never let anything that happens off the court carry onto the court. That’s what we continue to do.

“Me and Azzi are not new to this. We’ve been doing this for a long time. We have countless reps at it. We have a lot of experience with it, so we will continue to use that experience to show up and be professionals, great teammates, great leaders, the hardest workers, and continue to show up and do our job and help the Dallas Wings win basketball games.”

The pair were teammates at UConn and won a national championship in 2025, with their friendship dating back to their high school days when they met at USA Basketball’s U16 national team camp.

Bueckers said Monday that this would be the only time that she would speak about their relationship and any further questions would be answered by redirecting back to the statement she made or discussing one of her teammates. 

Fudd was asked about their relationship during her introductory press conference, and a Wings media relations staffer jumped in to say that players don’t comment on their personal lives. 

On Monday, Bueckers also seemed to address those who had insinuated Fudd’s selection may have been influenced by the fact that she is dating the Wings’ star player. 

“Azzi Fudd was a No. 1 draft pick because she earned it, and it had nothing to do with me and everything to do with who she is as a human being, who she is a basketball player, her resilience, her strength and her career-best year at UConn, Bueckers said. “So, Azzi is her own great individual person, and she should be celebrated as such.”

Fudd is coming off a season in which she averaged 17.3 points per game and shot 45 percent from 3-point range with the Huskies.
