On top of all that, the rookie broke another WNBA record. With 17 games remaining on the season, she surpassed Alana Beard, Arike Ogunbowale, Caitlin Clark, and Cappie Pondexter for the most 20-point, 2-steal games by a rookie guard in WNBA history.

Ogunbowale was even more impressive. The four-time All-Star made WNBA history by registering a 15-point, 10-assist double-double in the first half. Ogunbowale finished with 20 points, a career-high 14 assists, a steal and two triples.

The backcourt duo of rookie Paige Bueckers and veteran Arike Ogunbowale combined for 40 points as the Wings shot 46% from the floor and soared to a 27-point halftime lead. With the win, Dallas is one victory away from matching its total from 2024, when the team finished 9-31.

UConn women's basketball star Azzi Fudd was in Arlington, Texas Monday night to watch Paige Bueckers ' WNBA game against the New York Liberty.
