Bueckers, the No. 1 pick in the WNBA draft, shot 8 for 10 from the field and finished with seven assists and five rebounds.

Once the ball was tipped, Bueckers proceeded to assist on the first three Dallas buckets of the night. She then hit back-to-back jumpers to spot the Wings an 11-5 lead as she scored or assisted on each of Dallas' first five field goals. By halftime, she had 15 points, 5 rebounds and 4 assists, and the Wings were in control with a 56-42 lead.

Wings star Paige Bueckers returned to familiar stomping ground, earning a win in the same state where she played for UConn women's basketball
