UConn shares a nostalgic craft project of Paige Bueckers

Paige Bueckers, the projected top pick in the 2025 WNBA draft, got a heartwarming welcome on her return to college for her final year. UConn's social media handle shared her craft project from when she was five.

"Paige knew who she was from a very early age," the caption said.

They recreated her exact 'first day' art piece, with Bueckers holding the current one.

"This is Paige. Paige is 5 years old. Paige has blue eyes. Paige likes to basketball," her first day craft project reads.

The Saint Paul, Minnesota, will be playing her final collegiate basketball season before heading to the WNBA. Although she won every individual trophy, she's yet to win the NCAA national championship, which remains her primary aim for the upcoming season.

"I know I'm not at the top, at the peak of my performance. I'm not anywhere where I wanna be.
"So. I'm always motivated by that, always motivated by wanting to win. I haven't won a national championship. So. I'm trying to get there. I'm tryna work for it," Bueckers said on This is Winning Basketball.

She finished last season with a blast, averaging 21.9 points, 5.2 rebounds and 3.8 assists per game at UConn.
