Paige Bueckers scores 32 points in Dallas Wings victory over Seattle Storm

Paige Bueckers scored 32 points to lead the Dallas Wings to a 92-70 victory over the Seattle Storm. Bueckers achieved a historic feat by scoring at least 32 points without playing in the final period, becoming the first WNBA player to do so since the introduction of quarters in 2006.

Bueckers was highly efficient, shooting 12-of-16 from the field and going a perfect 6-of-6 from three-point range, matching the WNBA record for consecutive made threes. She recorded 18 points in the first quarter alone, matching a franchise record for points in a single quarter.

Jessica Shepard contributed a double-double with 11 points and 11 rebounds. The win brings the Dallas Wings to a 22-16 record, placing them within reach of a playoff berth. The Seattle Storm fell to 7-31, having already been eliminated from postseason contention.
