Remember the name: Paige Bueckers. 6th grade, think Diana Taurasi. Best 6th grade G I've ever seen. St. Louis Park.

- Full circle moment today. Watched Paige Bueckers, great even as a 6th grader, grow into one of the best. Hearing her call me “the originator” and mention our connection from a 2013 tweet was a reminder of what it’s like to witness her journey from the start.

00:00 - Let’s call it now! Paige Bueckers . Player of the Month & Rookie of the Month… Unanimous ROY
- Stop the nonsense from podcasters claiming Paige Bueckers isn’t popular just because she doesn’t shoot logo 3s. Paige’s game is on the right side of history, she’s wildly popular, and her story is still being written. Focus on facts, not baseless takes.
- When you know, you know. Paige Bueckers called me “the originator.” Just archiving this moment on my timeline.
