How Dallas Wings star Paige Bueckers has approached this WNBA season differently

DALLAS — When Paige Bueckers strolled into the Dallas Wings’ training camp after an offseason full of excursions, it was clear she’d also made time for the weight room ahead of her sophomore year in the WNBA.

The guard, historically slight, gained 15 pounds of muscle on a regimen that included three-hour lifting sessions five to six days a week and a new diet.

She no longer looked like the fresh-faced rookie from the year prior, but someone built to take on the physicality of a league that she’s already become a face of.

“Unfortunately, a lot of times throughout college I was always rehabbing something in the summer,” Bueckers told The Dallas Morning News. “This was my first long offseason where I really got to hone in.”
