Fudd was one of the top prospects in this class regardless of where she landed, and the fit in Dallas just made the decision even easier.<\/p>\n<p><a target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/outkick-sports\/wnbas-wings-cant-shield-paige-bueckers-azzi-fudd-from-relationship-questions-forever\"><strong>THE WNBA&#8217;S WINGS CAN&#8217;T SHIELD PAIGE BUECKERS, AZZI FUDD FROM RELATIONSHIP QUESTIONS FOREVER<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n<p>But the bigger takeaway here is that Bueckers clearly wants to put a lid on this storyline, at least from a personal standpoint. She indicated she plans to address their relationship once, and that\u2019s it.<\/p>\n<p>Which, funny enough, is exactly how this could have been handled from the start.<\/p>\n<p>You know, instead of that <a target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/sports\/wnba-teams-public-relations-staff-shuts-reporters-question-players-relationship\">awkward PR intervention<\/a> at Fudd\u2019s introductory press conference \u2014 effectively blowing things way out of proportion \u2014 and days of unnecessary speculation and Internet chatter.<\/p>\n<p>But hey, better late than never.
