University of Connecticut women's basketball fans who want to see former Huskies Paige Bueckers and Azzi Fudd reunite on the floor won't have to wait very long.

The WNBA just announced its national broadcast schedule for 2026 on Wednesday, and Bueckers, Fudd and the Dallas Wings will take on Caitlin Clark and the Indiana Fever on Saturday, May 9. That game will air at 1 p.m. ET.

Clark was the No. 1 pick in the 2024 WNBA Draft out of Iowa, while Bueckers (2025) and Fudd (2026), were both taken by Dallas. It's unclear if Fudd will start right away, but regardless, she and Bueckers will factor prominently into Dallas's plans this season.

One of the most decorated players in UConn history, Bueckers averaged 19.8 ppg for her career in Storrs. She helped UConn win the national title for the 12th time in 2024-25 as she averaged 19.9 ppg. A three-time Big East Player of the Year, she was also a Naismith Award Winner, a Wooden Award winner, a three-time All-American and a winner of the Wade Trophy.

In addition to being the No. 1 pick of Dallas, she captured the league's Rookie of the Year Award. 

Bueckers averaged 19.2 ppg with the Wings in her first season (36 games). She also averaged 5.4 assists per game. 

She was recently selected to the Team USA roster for the FIBA World Cup and is tracking toward a berth on her first Olympic team. The next Olympics are in 2028 (Los Angeles).

A five-year standout for the Huskies, Fudd played in 115 career games, starting 98 of them. She missed nearly all of her junior season with injury, but came back to huge success in her redshirt junior and senior years. As a redshirt junior, she led the Big East in three-point shooting percentage (43.6) while scoring 13.6 ppg and helping the Huskies win the national championship.

This year, with Bueckers having graduated, she led the Big East in three-point shooting again (44.7 percent) while elevating her game to 17.3 ppg. She led the Huskies to an undefeated regular season and a trip to the Final Four, where they were upended by South Carolina. Fudd was a first-team All-American. She was also a two-time All-Big East selection during her time in Storrs.

Fudd was the seventh No. 1 pick in the WNBA Draft out of UConn, joining Sue Bird (2002), Diana Taurasi (2004), Tina Charles (2010), Maya Moore (2011), Breanna Stewart (2016) and Bueckers (2025).
