Bueckers returned to the court Wednesday night after missing four games due to concussion protocol and an illness.

Dallas Wings star Paige Bueckers went out of her way to help a teammate after extracurricular postgame activity against the Phoenix Mercury.

Bueckers, who returned after missing four games due to concussion protocol and an illness, made her first six shots of the game and finished 13 of 19. She became the fourth rookie in Dallas history to score 30-plus points in a single game, with Arike Ogunbowale the last to do it in 2019.
