UConn coach Geno Auriemma caused a minor stir during last year’s NCAA Tournament when he proclaimed that his star guard, Paige Bueckers, was the best player in the country.

UConn star Paige Bueckers had a career day in the Sweet 16 with a 40-point performance but she refused to take the credit & instead passed it to her teammates.

USC's hopes of making the Final Four will weigh heavily upon freshman defensive specialist Kennedy Smith being able to keep UConn star Paige Bueckers in check.
