Paige Bueckers Makes WNBA History Against Golden State Valkyries
The Golden State Valkyries welcomed the Dallas Wings to Chase Center on Friday evening where they hoped to snap a three-game losing streak. Already mired in a slump, Golden State was then dealt the bad news that All-Star forward Kayla Thornton would miss the remainder of the 2025 WNBA season with a knee injury.
Despite owning just a 7-17 record, Dallas entered this game coming off an impressive 87-63 win over the Seattle Storm on Tuesday. The Wings also have No. 1 overall pick Paige Bueckers who is amid a historic first professional campaign, which continued against Golden State on Friday.
Just one game after tying Indiana Fever guard Caitlin Clark as the fastest player in WNBA history to reach 300 career points and 100 career assists (via Wings), Bueckers made more history against the Valkyries on Friday night.
Surpassing 350 career points in the first half of this game at Chase Center, the former UConn star became the fastest in league history to reach that mark while also tallying at least 100 assists.
