WNBA star Paige Bueckers confirmed she’s dating her former teammate Azzi Fudd, and fans are calling it a “hard launch.”
During a July 17 interview with WAG Talk, Bueckers was asked to answer a few questions about her “D1 girlfriend” and at the end, she revealed the person she was referring to was Fudd.
Some of the questions Bueckers answered were about Fudd basketball career, her family and the writing that’s on Fudd’s phone case, which says “Paige Bueckers’ girlfriend” — and she answered them with a smile.
In the comments, fans said they were happy for the couple.
“Ok this is like THE REALL hard launch 😭,” one person wrote.
“She cheesing mad hard too, that’s her girl fr,” another said.
A third added, “This interviewer deserves a raise… I dream for nights like this.”
Gatorade, who named Fudd its 2018-19 National Player of the Year, also got in on the fun.
In the comments, the brand seemingly joked about how long it took Bueckers to answer some of the questions. In the video, she would sometimes take a moment to think about her answer before saying it out loud.
“We were worried for a second there,” Gatorade’s account wrote.
