Paige Bueckers is starting to get more comfortable with coming out of the closet.
Bueckers and Azzi Fudd, former UConn teammates, have sparked dating rumors with a series of playful interactions and social media posts.
Lately, it has been much more than just guesses on whether they are in a relationship.
Azzi Fudd traveled to watch for UConn Huskies teammate Bueckers and the Dallas Wings play in Phoenix. The day after, she posted an awesome selfie of the two in nearly identical fits.
Last month, Fudd posted a mirror selfie on her Instagram stories that had fans going nuts because it seemed to make her rumored relationship with Paige Bueckers official. Fudd took a photo while getting her hair done by hairstylist Haley Logan.
While posing with her hairstylist and tagging Logan, calling her “The absolute best,” Fudd cleverly showed off her cell phone case that reads, “Paige Bueckers’ girlfriend.”
Now, the two young ladies are taking things further.
After the 102-72 loss in Phoenix, Bueckers and Fudd emerged together holding hands for an extended period. This video has since gone viral on social media, and fans have taken screenshots of the hand-holding moment.
That’s not all that occurred. TikTok user @miriam.zarate posted a video of Bueckers signing a fan’s poster that read, “Azzi Fudd’s Girlfriend” after the game ended.
