Paige Bueckers Makes Her Opinion of Nika Muhl Very Clear Amid WNBA Playing Time Woes

UConn star guard Paige Bueckers is in Seattle visiting her former Huskies teammate Nika Muhl.

And Bueckers was in attendance during Friday’s WNBA game between Nuhl’s Seattle Storm squad and Angel Reese’s Chicago Sky team.

At one point in the game, Bueckers was interviewed by the broadcast and spoke out about the relationship she has with Muhl.

“I’m taking a west coast trip, I’m done with summer workouts,” Bueckers said. “And just decided to come visit my twin. So I’m excited to be here.

When asked what it’s like to see her “twin” playing in the WNBA, Bueckers said, “It’s crazy. Super surreal.”

“Just to watch her live our her dreams and just to know that a few months ago we were living together. So it’s definitely surreal and I’m super proud of her,” Bueckers continued about Muhl.

Unfortunately Bueckers didn’t get to see Muhl on the court, as the rookie didn’t receive any minutes during Friday’s game.

Perhaps Muhl will earn home playing time on Sunday when the Sky and Storm have a rematch against one another.
