Amanda Belichick, the daughter of Bill Belichick, approved of Paige Bueckers' comments after she helped the UConn Huskies win the national championship.
Bueckers, who fueled UConn's run to the title, said friendship played an important role in the team's success.
"I saw on social media, they were saying UConn won based on the power of friendship. It's so accurate," Bueckers said, via SI. "Just how much we love each other, how much we're connected, how much we've been through as individuals, as a team, and how much it has bonded us and helped us become national champions. So I wouldn't trade it for anything."

Bill Belichick is making UNC like an NFL program
Bill Belichick is entering his first year as the head coach of the North Carolina Tar Heels.
Belichick signed a five-year deal with UNC, which was a surprise, and he said he would be treating the program like an NFL team.
"If I was in a college program, the college program would be a pipeline to the NFL for the players that had the ability to play in the NFL," Belichick said, via ESPN. "It would be a professional program: training, nutrition, scheme, coaching and techniques that would transfer to the NFL."
Belichick said it was a dream come true for him to coach in college.
"I've always wanted to coach in college football. It just never really worked out," Belichick said during his introductory press conference. "Had some good years in the NFL, so that was okay, but this is really kind of a dream come true."
The Tar Heels and Belichick will open their 2025 college football season on Sept. 1 against TCU.
