STORRS — As amazing as it is to have Paige Bueckers practicing more with UConn women’s basketball as she progresses in her ACL recovery, Azzi Fudd admits that it’s also a little “weird.” The pair haven’t been on the court together for nearly a year and it’s taking some getting used to.
Take the other day. They were playing and one of Bueckers’ passes slipped right through Fudd’s fingertips.
“And she’s like, ‘Why’d you’d drop my pass? Why did you miss that shot?’ ” Fudd recalled. “I was like, ‘I forgot how good your passes were. I’m not used to that.’ ”
