Steph Curry’s sister, Sydel Curry, revealed that she is the biggest Paige Bueckers fan during Monday’s episode of her "Straight to Cam" podcast with Cameron Brink. Curry explained how she loves Bueckers but was left ‘disappointed’ by one part of her outfit for the 2025 WNBA Draft.

“I was like a teensy bit disappointed, not disappointed, but like underwhelmed with her looks," Curry. said "I thought her hair was fire like glam was fire I think just last year like the white fit was just so good, it was hard to beat that.” [54:00]

“I loved her fits during the draft this year, but it was really hard to top the white suit.”

Halfway through, Cameron Brink pointed out that Sydel Curry actually predicted what Paige Bueckers would wear to the 2025 WNBA Draft.

“You called it Paige, you said Paige was going to wear a bell bottom, you called it,” Brink said.

Sydel replied:

“I did, I did, I know my girl Paige, I know her.”

Paige donned two different looks for the 2025 WNBA Draft. In both looks, she wore trousers that can be described as bell-bottoms.

Bueckers heads into the league as the top overall pick after making 123 appearances for the Connecticut Huskies, recording 19.8 points, 4.7 rebounds and 4.5 assists per game.
