Paige Bueckers has been enjoying her first fully healthy offseason this year and made sure to make the best of it. She has been a consistent supporter of women's basketball this summer as she attended her former teammates Aaliyah Edwards and Nika Muhl's games.

Bueckers was also in attendance at the WNBA All-Star Weekend, where she cheered for the participating players. She went viral for her exchange with Caitlin Clark and snapped a few pictures with Flau'jae Johnson.

On Sunday, the UConn guard posted these pictures to her Instagram with a caption:

"Racking up my flight mileage… World tour complete✅."

Indiana Fever star Aliyah Boston responded:

"Let me use some of your points for my next flight 🥺."

Apart from her 'tour' pictures, Paige Bueckers also added a few from her training sessions. She has been working hard as she prepares for her final college season with the Huskies.

Paige Bueckers is working hard for a championship

Paige Bueckers and the UConn Huskies came close to an NCAA championship last season but their trip was cut short by the Iowa Hawkeyes in the Final Four. With the upcoming season, the team is hoping for better results and Bueckers has been preparing hard.

During her appearance on the Nike x WNBA "This is Winning Basketball" live show at the All-Star Weekend, the senior guard said:

"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.
"It's super motivating when you go to UConn, you only think of one thing, that's winning national championships and you get to do it, so that's been motivating me a lot.
"And just for me coming back from injury being inspired people that injury doesn't have to be the end of your career, doesn't have to be labeled don't put the box you can be great come back even better."

The last two offseasons, Paige Bueckers was healing from her ACL injury. With her healthy return, hope for a championship has risen. UConn last won the NCAA title in 2016, which also marked the end of the iconic Breanna Stewart era.

The Huskies have added 2024's No. 1 recruit, Sarah Strong, to the 2024-25 roster along with Allie Ziebel and Morgan Cheli. For Bueckers, this will be her last shot at the title before she moves to the WNBA where she is a projected No. 1 pick.
