Dallas Wings rookie Paige Bueckers entered the WNBA's concussion protocol and will miss a minimum of two games, the team announced Friday.
Bueckers will sit out Saturday's contest against the Chicago Sky and Tuesday's outing versus the Seattle Storm. She'll be re-evaluated following the Storm game.
The 2025 No. 1 pick is averaging 14.7 points, 6.7 assists, 4.7 rebounds, and 2.0 steals through six contests this season while shooting 43.7% from the field and 33.3% from three.
The Wings are 1-5 on the campaign, beating the Connecticut Sun earlier this week for their first victory. Dallas ranks last in the Western Conference.
