Paige Bueckers hit a pair of head-turning, step-back 3-pointers on Saturday against the Phoenix Mercury, one in the first half and another in the second half that helped her Dallas Wings secure an 87-82 victory over the Phoenix Mercury.
In between, the two-time All-Star guard knocked down a triple while drawing a foul right before intermission, a sequence that sent the College Park Center crowd into a frenzy.
With the Wings playing their final regular-season game in the arena ahead of their 2027 move to American Airlines Center, Bueckers put on a show. She finished with 26 points on 10-of-19 shooting to go along with her 5 assists, 4 rebounds and 3 steals.
Despite a furious fight from the Mercury (15-27), the Wings (26-16) extended their six-game win streak. In the process, they secured their 26th victory of 2026, setting the franchise’s single-season wins record.
THAT’S NASTY PAIGE 😱
Bueckers steps back into the the shot from behind the arc for 14 first half points!
