Following a 26-point loss to the Las Vegas Aces on Sunday, coach Chris Koclanes said he wanted to see the chemistry the team has built this season to translate more onto the court.

The UConn Huskies star and her former teammate Paige Bueckers helped lead the team to the first national championship since 2016 before Bueckers departed to the WNBA where on draft night Fudd upstaged her with a unreal glam makeover.

The backcourt duo of rookie Paige Bueckers and veteran Arike Ogunbowale combined for 40 points as the Wings shot 46% from the floor and soared to a 27-point halftime lead. With the win, Dallas is one victory away from matching its total from 2024, when the team finished 9-31.
