UConn Huskies head coach Geno Auriemma is eager to see a bit more from Paige Bueckers' offensive game.
The UConn Huskies women's basketball team plays in a Big East showdown against the Villanova Wildcats on January 5.
In addition to this being an important conference clash, this game is especially compelling for Huskies star guard Paige Bueckers because it's her 100th career game at UConn.
"I'd like to see her be a little more free and experiment a little more," Auriemma said in the article. "She values this efficiency thing. I'd like to see her take more risks, but that's always the case with me and our best players. I don't want them to worry about being perfect." "She does everything with her whole heart into it, with all her effort and all her energy. She does it with a purpose and passion." -Perhaps Bueckers' 100th UConn game on Sunday will be when she decides to play as free as Auriemma would like to see.Grant Young covers Women’s Basketball, the New York Yankees, and the New York Mets for Sports Illustrated’s ‘On SI’ sites.
