Days after revealing that she had 500 TikTok videos in her drafts, Azzi Fudd shared one of them with fans over the weekend. The UConn guard posted a video of her singing along to a song.

Fudd's latest video was from the 2024 WNBA draft in New York, which she attended to support former teammates Nika Muhl and Aaliyah Edwards. The guard simply captioned the video:

"#draft."

Fans in the comments were excited about Fudd sharing videos and asked for more. One fan was more interested in just the guard, as they commented:

"Please post more solo tiktoks i’m begging."
"FIRST SOLO TIKTOK WE PRAYED OMG AZZI 😭😭 ," another wrote.

The urgency to post the drafts came because of the proposed TikTok ban in the U.S., which would lead to the complete erasure of all the videos. With the platform back in operation, some fans asked Fudd to continue releasing more drafts.

"Even tho we back you can still post drafts🙏," one fan wrote.

Azzi Fudd makes a triumphant return to court

Right from high school, Azzi Fudd has been battling with leg injuries. In 2019, when she was a junior at St. John's College High School (Washington, D.C.), she tore her ACL and MCL during Team USA's final selection for the FIBA U18 3×3 World Cup.

After two surgeries, she was back in action and was the No. 1 recruit of the 2021 class. At UConn, Fudd's struggles with injuries continued, missing 11 games as a freshman due to a stress injury on her right foot. In her sophomore year, she played in only 15 games as she hurt her right knee twice.

She was healthy to return for the 2023-24 season, but after just two games, she tore her ACL again. Azzi Fudd was sidelined for the remainder of the year. She returned to the court on Nov. 20 against Fairleigh Dickinson.

Since then, the guard has slowly found her way back on the hardwood and is averaging 11.5 points, 1.9 rebounds and 1.3 assists. She shoots at 48.3% from the floor but is still not fully confident in her scoring due to the extended breaks. During a pregame chat with the media before Sunday's game against Seton Hall, Fudd said:

"I think, last game, I kind of got into a little rhythm with my pull-up again. And so that was nice. That's kind of the first game in a while that I've felt good about my pull-up.
"I think just like bit by bit, trying to chip away and trying to feel more comfortable with or feeling like my shot's actually going to go in every time."

Azzi Fudd and the Huskies return to action on Wednesday when they host Villanova.
