As the holiday season rings on, several Paige Bueckers fans received her first player edition sneakers as a gift. When Ava Oeffler, a fan, received the predominantly blue pair of Nike G.T. Hustle 3's for Christmas, her reaction went viral with it being posted on Overtime Kicks.

"Can I swear? No f*ck*ng way!," she was quoted as saying.

Her hilarious reaction sparked many comments from fans who radiate the same energy towards Bueckers' first-ever PE colorway with Nike.

"I'M CRYING PAIGE HAS TO SEE THIS," one fan exclaimed.
"At least she asked," another said with a laughing emoji.

With her first-ever pair of signature shoes on deck, Bueckers is seizing the opportunities of her rising stardom to give back to her fans.

This is all important given the fact that she is looking to take her talents to the WNBA next year and is uncorking her final year of college ball. Who knows, she may follow suit with New York Liberty star Sabrina Ionescu and Breanna Stewart in releasing their signature lines eventually.

For now, her focus rests on administering a reclaim of the national title UConn won back in 2016. The Huskies' next fixture will be on Sunday, Dec. 29, against the Providence Friars.

Paige Bueckers becomes first NIL athlete with a signature shoe release

Signing a deal with Nike back in 2023, Bueckers' release of a G.T. Hustle 3 colorway is said to have been the first of any NIL athlete to drop a sneaker in history. Designing the shoe with details and hues that evoke her journey, the shoe has since taken off and is widely available worldwide.

With this success, it can be said that there's more to come from Nike and Bueckers' partnership especially when she steps foot in the WNBA when she wraps up her storied collegiate career.
