UConn Huskies women's basketball head coach Geno Auriemma made his way to Texas Tuesday night to watch two of his former players take the court against one another. Paige Bueckers, the No. 1 pick in this year's WNBA draft by the Dallas Wings, were slated to take on the Golden State Valkyries on the final night of Commissioner's Cup play.
The Valkyries signed Kaitlyn Chen, Bueckers's teammate last year at UConn, to a contract Sunday after they drafted her in the third round with the No. 30 pick in April.
