Bueckers scored 24 of her team's 53 points.
PORTLAND — There was a fan in the stands at Moda Center on Saturday night who pulled her long, blond hair back into a ponytail with braids in the front, just like UConn star guard . She held up a sign: “Paige, am I doing this right?” and high-fived Bueckers as she ran from the UConn bench back to the locker room. Advertisement These days, everyone wants to be like Bueckers, who again starred for the No. 3 Huskies in a 53-45 win against No.
The Huskies ultimately held on, led by Bueckers, as well as Edwards and guard , who both scored 12 points. “I think defensively we were just playing smarter than we did on the offensive end but I think that we took care of those possessions on the defensive end,” Edwards said. “We did a good job disrupting.” Auriemma said he could tell his team was fatigued down the stretch, which forced him to change his game plan.
