UConn’s Paige Bueckers, 2021 Naismith Women’s Player of the Year, is the latest student-athlete to sign a deal with Nike.

After becoming one of the biggest stars in women’s college basketball (on account of a historic freshman season), the point guard missed last season due to an ACL tear. Now, with the 2023-2024 season quickly approaching, Bueckers is not only set to return to the court, she'll be doing so in style as she is set to sport the latest G.T. Hustle 2.

“I am blessed and honored to announce my partnership with Nike. Joining the Nike family is a childhood dream come true. I can’t wait to see what we accomplish together on and off the court.”

In 46 games with the Huskies, the Minnesota native and former Associate Press Player of the Year has averaged 18 points and 5.1 assists.
