Bueckers and Fudd Selected for Naismith Watch List


UConn women’s basketball stars Paige Bueckers and Azzi Fudd have been named to the 2024-25 Naismith Trophy Women’s Player of the Year Watch list. Bueckers, already a preseason BIG EAST Player of the Year and a preseason AP-All-American, led the Huskies back to the NCAA Final Four last season. She averaged 21.9 points per game and was named to multiple First Team All-America teams. Fudd, who missed most of last season due to injury, returns after averaging 15.1 points in the 2022-23 season. She is a preseason All-BIG EAST selection.

Bueckers and Fudd join a long line of dominant UConn players, with seven Huskies winning the Naismith Trophy a total of 11 times. Bueckers made history in 2021 by becoming the first freshman to win the award. Both players will be instrumental in leading UConn’s quest for another successful season in 2024-25.

The Atlanta Tipoff Club’s announcement solidifies Bueckers and Fudd as front-runners for the prestigious Player of the Year award. With their proven track records and exceptional skills on the court, both players have set their sights on adding more accolades to their already impressive resumes. Fans can expect to witness some spectacular performances from these two talented athletes as they continue to make their mark on college basketball.
