Napheesa & Paige Bueckers to Represent USA on 3 x 3 Team.

[JordyG]

Paige is really, really, really good. And that may be an understatement.

Yes. Clearly you intentionally left out a really.

A nice little UConn themed infusion during this downtime.

I imagine Paige will be picking Pheesa's brain alot. Not about basketball
but about Geno .

I would guess nicknames and mannerisms will be on top of the list. So Napheesa became "PHEESA" . My guess is Bueckers will become "BUCKETS"

It'll be Paige. Now as for her teammates.....

Probably right.

We are SO lucky to have landed Paige. Yeah I know we are a little "short" on bigs, and we've yet to see any recruiting impact from having the best PG in high school committed, but man - her and Azzi hopefully on the same team - just wow.

and some bonus Pheesa at the end.

Should be revealing to see Bueckers playing with pros. She played with rising sophomores this summer and was IMO the best player. I think she'll fit right in. 3X3 seems to fit her game.
I am assuming that the games are streamed?

There is supposed to be a livestream. We'll see if it's free.

Personally I think 3X3 is more fun to play than to watch. Maybe the fast pace takes getting used to. I think it's a great international game. There are a lot of teams that run out of talent once past their starters but who can compete in 3X3.

I'll be up at 8:30 to watch. It'll probably be the best BB we'll see for a month.

Paige and Pheesa practicing together and hitting buckets in the background. I suppose some stories are being passed around.

The Olympic Channel? What the fresh hell...?

I wish organizers/promoters/committees would realize they’re doing the event a huge disservice by making it unnecessarily difficult to view.

Neither am I. And their website's livestream isn't showing anything either.

Does not appear to be a livestream.

Edit:

I take that back. It is streaming if you deactivate any ad-blockers. Don't know if the basketball game was shown.

I’ve been watching it and no basketball.
