Overview
- Paige Bueckers left Dallas’ 90-82 win after a scary collision with Nneka Ogwumike, finishing with 25 points before walking to the locker room and not returning to the game on Sunday.
- Team doctors completed a postgame evaluation and cleared Bueckers of a concussion, but the Wings announced she is officially listed out for Monday’s game for rest because of soreness.
- Dallas held on to win and extended a franchise-best six-game streak, with Arike Ogunbowale scoring six late points to help close out the game after Bueckers exited.
- The play began when rookie Azzi Fudd tripped Ogwumike, leading to an incidental collision that left both players down and prompted widespread concern after slow-motion clips circulated.
- With a back-to-back vs. New York and one more game before the All-Star break, the Wings will monitor Bueckers’ recovery while leaning more on Ogunbowale, Azzi Fudd and Jessica Shepard in the short term.
