WNBA Draft - English
In a recent TikTok video, UConn basketball star Azzi Fudd was seen dancing alongside Olympic gymnast Sunisa Lee and TikTok creator Anna Frey.
While the trio’s dance moves garnered attention, it was Fudd‘s necklace-a heart-shaped pendant featuring the number “5”-that truly captivated fans.
The number corresponds to the jersey worn by Fudd‘s close friend and former teammate, Paige Bueckers, during her time at UConn and now with the Dallas Wings in the WNBA .
The video quickly went viral, with fans taking to social media to express their excitement and speculate about the necklace’s significance.
Comments ranged from playful to emotional, with one fan noting, “Now Paige….. lol she don’t need a necklace with ur number,” and another adding, “This is so cute I’m crying.”
The consensus among fans is that the necklace serves as a subtle tribute to Bueckers, highlighting the deep bond between the two athletes.
A Bond Forged on and off the Court
Azzi Fudd and Paige Bueckers‘ friendship dates back to their high school years, where they first connected through USA Basketball.
Their bond strengthened at UConn, where they played together and supported each other through injuries and triumphs.
Even after Bueckers declared for the WNBA Draft, Fudd remained by her side, attending the draft and celebrating her friend’s achievements.
The necklace, whether intentionally symbolic or not, has become a focal point for fans who admire the duo’s friendship.
It serves as a reminder of their shared experiences and the support they continue to offer each other, even as their professional paths diverge.
As Fudd prepares for the upcoming college basketball season and Bueckers embarks on her WNBA career, fans will undoubtedly continue to watch their journeys with interest.
The viral TikTok and the buzz surrounding the necklace underscore the impact of their relationship, both on and off the court.

Slavia se po oslavách vrací domů, Baník hostí Olomouc
Začít se sluší skupinou o titul, kde by teoreticky mělo být v sázce hodně. Jenže Slavia, která ligu s přehledem vede, už si zisk trofeje pro mistra ligy zajistila minulý víkend, když deklasovala 5:0 Olomouc. O co hrát tak má pouze soupeř z Plzně. Druhý mančaft tabulky na úvod nadstavby porazil Spartu 2:0 a vytvořil si na stříbrné příčce čtyřbodový náskok před třetím Baníkem. Postup do druhého předkola Ligy mistrů tak mají Západočeši na dosah.Třetí Ostrava ale nehodlá podruhé v řadě ztratit. Baník tuší, že po prohře s Jabloncem musí zabrat. A jeho soupeřem bude šestá Olomouc, pro níž bude vrcholem sezony finále poháru proti Spartě. Do pohárů už se z ligy Sigma kvalifikovat prakticky nemůže, pokud zmíněný Jablonec brutálním způsobem neselže.Úvodní duel čeká i skupinu o umístění, mezi fotbalovými fanoušky zvanou prostřední. Hradec Králové se utká s Karvinou. Oba celky se ve dvojzápase poperou o postup do finále skupiny o umístění, vítěz obdrží finanční odměnu a výhodnější […]
Yankees expected a lot from Paul Goldschmidt. They’re getting even more
NEW YORK — Of course, Austin Wells knew all about Paul Goldschmidt. The 25-year-old New York Yankees catcher grew up watching the 37-year-old first baseman. Wells knew about Goldschmidt’s seven All-Star selections, four Gold Gloves and the National League MVP award he bagged in 2022.And while Wells expected Goldschmidt to be a positive addition to the club’s pregame hitters meetings, Wells has been blown away by his contributions.Advertisement“He’s very prepared,” Wells said recently. “He’s very focused. He always has something that he’s seen from recent outings that he’s reporting back on from watching video. Getting to hear a guy like that, who’s ‘X’ amount of years into playing baseball and still watching film and preparing to have success, it’s really cool. I don’t expect anything less from him because that’s just who he is in getting to know him more, […]
