With the offseason in full swing, Paige Bueckers has been living the best time of her life. A big sports fan, Bueckers had the Dallas Cowboys game on her plans for Thanksgiving on Thursday.
She was in attendance at AT&T Stadium to watch the Cowboys face the Kansas City Chiefs on Thanksgiving. Bueckers posted a snap from the game on her Instagram Story with a two-word caption.
"Happy Thanksgiving!!" she wrote.

It seems like Bueckers proved to be a lucky charm for the Cowboys. They defeated the Chiefs by 31-28.
This is not the first time Paige Bueckers has spent a big day watching the Dallas Cowboys. Last month, ahead of her 24th birthday, the Wings star was in attendance to cheer the Cowboys against the Washington Commanders.
Bueckers has been attending games of the Dallas-based teams after her rookie season. She attended one Dallas Mavericks preseason game and was sighted at the much-hyped Oklahoma-Texas football game.
Paige Bueckers claps back at critics for unfair Wings narrative
Paige Bueckers was outstanding in her rookie season. The Wings player not only won the Rookie of the Year award, but she also made the All-WNBA team. However, as much as Bueckers tasted individual success, it didn't have much impact on the Wings' 2025 season.
The Wings had the worst record in the league, winning only 10 of their 44 games. With Bueckers having a great season for herself, much of the fans' criticism went against her teammates, with several asking for trades to get Bueckers some help.
However, on Monday, in an interview on "What Drives Winning," Paige Bueckers clarified her stance on the narrative. She said she was part of the loss, just as much as she was part of the win, because she also needed to help her teammates be their best.
"I might have a good individual performance," Bueckers said. "We lose as a team. Other people didn't have their best shooting performance or whatever that may be. And you look at the comments in the Instagram. ... it'll ... say, 'Paige needs help Paige needs help.' "What we're building as a team, like I need to help my teammates on the floor be the best version of themselves."
"It's not 'Paige needs help,'" Bueckers said. "It's [that] we all need to together collectively [ask], 'how can we all help each other better?'"
The Wings, with a new coach, Jose Fernandez, leading them, will expect better results next season, and perhaps a bigger season from Paige Bueckers.
