Is Paige Bueckers Dating Azzi Fudd? Yes, Here's Everything You Need To Know

Azzi Fudd and Paige Bueckers are officially a couple, ending months of online speculation with a quiet confirmation that surprised few. In a Wagtalk interview, Bueckers referred to Fudd as her girlfriend, making public what fans had long believed.

The announcement came just days after Fudd turned heads at the 2025 ESPYs, and Bueckers, who missed the event due to a game with the Dallas Wings, reacted with a post full of heart and flame emojis. It was just one of many social media exchanges that had fuelled dating rumours for months.

A Soft Launch, Then Confirmation

Hints about the nature of Bueckers and Fudd's relationship began surfacing in spring 2025. Fudd was seen courtside supporting Bueckers at Wings games, and the two frequently posted pictures in matching outfits. A viral moment came when Fudd shared a mirror selfie revealing a phone case that read, 'Paige Bueckers' girlfriend', a quiet nod that went loud across fan circles.

At the ESPYs red carpet, Fudd stood out in a lilac gown. Bueckers, though absent, made her thoughts clear by reposting a photo with three '🥵' emojis. It wasn't the first time Fudd had stolen the spotlight, since she also drew attention during Bueckers' WNBA Draft night, dressed in a plunging stunner of a gown.

Their relationship status became official in the light-hearted Wagtalk segment, where Bueckers was quizzed on details about her girlfriend's life. The segment ended with the final clue: 'Paige Bueckers' girlfriend'. The answer, of course, was Azzi Fudd.

Rising Stars on and off the Court

Fudd and Bueckers both made their names as top recruits and collegiate stars at UConn. While Bueckers is now a rookie with the Dallas Wings, Fudd recently completed a decorated collegiate career capped by an NCAA Championship and a Most Outstanding Player award.

Fudd is not only preparing for the 2026 WNBA Draft, she's also expanding her reach into media. Her podcast, 'Fudd Around and Find Out', co-produced by Stephen Curry's Unanimous Media, debuted in July 2025. Fudd described the project as a platform for athletes and underrepresented voices, mixing sports, culture and business.

Curry's interest in Fudd goes beyond business. In 2023, he told ESPN: 'I kind of get jealous about it, because it looks prettier than mine', referring to Fudd's shooting form. When asked about the compliment during the ESPYs, Fudd said, 'To get a compliment from the greatest shooter ... that was heartwarming'.

What's Next for the Pair?

As Bueckers continues her WNBA rookie campaign, Fudd is finishing her MBA and looking ahead to the pros. Despite being in different cities, the two maintain a strong public connection. From Instagram reactions to game-day support, they've embraced the spotlight not just as individuals, but as a couple.

With the confirmation now public, fans can expect more appearances, posts and podcast mentions from the duo. And as Azzi Fudd steps closer to her professional debut, the attention around her, on and off the court, is only likely to grow.
