Paige Bueckers delivered 32 points, 10 rebounds, 6 assists and 4 steals on Monday to lead UConn to a 30th consecutive appearance in the Sweet 16. Afterward, coach Geno Auriemma referred to her as 'the best player in America.'
UConn star Paige Bueckers drops 32 points to go with 10 rebounds and 6 assists as the Huskies defeat Syracuse 72-64. in the second round of the NCAA tournament. Bueckers, at the time out for the season with a torn ACL, wanted nothing more than to play in those sorts of high-stakes games, with electric crowds.
Her 32 points Monday -- achieved largely by dissecting the Orange's zone and making them pay as she found openings inside the paint -- are an NCAA tournament career-best. "We have the best player in America," UConn coach Geno Auriemma said."The stats will tell you one thing ... but it's when they happen and how they impact the game that's so remarkable. I just think this team will go as far as she's able to carry that kind of a load. As long as she keeps getting a little bit of contributions from everybody.
