Paige Bueckers has lived up to every expectation that was put on her, and fans have been paying attention to everything.

The WNBA has been around for almost 30 years, but it took until 2024 before they really started to get major attention. Because of players like Caitlin Clark and Angel Reese, the league has received increased attention like never before.

Sometimes that attention doesn’t always work out in your favor.

Over the weekend, Bueckers’ team, the Dallas Wings, took on the Washington Mystics. It featured two dynamic players.

Dallas Wings phenom Paige Bueckers remains the favorite to win Rookie of the Year, but Washington Mystics guard Sonia Citron has entered the conversation.

The two frontrunners for WNBA Rookie of the Year went toe to toe Sunday night.

Bueckers offered 17 points, but the rookie duo of Citron and Kiki Iriafen combined for 42, leading Washington to a 91-78 victory over the Wings.

However, the WNBA is now being accused of rigging stats to favor Bueckers so she remains in the lead over Citron.

One fan noticed that a couple of Bueckers’ turnovers weren’t actually registered as turnovers in the box score. They even posted a video compilation to prove it.

“WNBA is cheating the stats for Paige Bueckers to keep her ahead of Sonia Citron for ROTY. If we can’t trust the box score, there’s nothing we can trust,” the fan noted.

If you head over to the box score, you will notice that Bueckers only has one turnover listed for the entire night.

Luka Doncic ‘destroys’ the Mavs on his return. Gets standing ovation and shows love to Mark Cuban

Luka Doncic hits 45 points in his first game in Dallas since being traded to the Los Angeles.

It’s rare for a home crowd to cheer the visiting team, but Luka Doncic’s return to Dallas was no ordinary night.

Just days before February’s trade deadline, the Mavericks shocked the NBA by sending their 26-year-old superstar to the Lakers—a move that outraged fans and sparked backlash toward GM Nico Harrison.

On Wednesday, Doncic played his first game back in Dallas since the trade. The arena was filled with fans in both his old Mavs and new Lakers jerseys, many chanting “Fire Nico” in protest.

Despite the emotion in the air, Doncic delivered a dominant performance, scoring a game-high 45 points to lead the Lakers to a 112-97 win. It was a powerful return for one of the league’s brightest stars—and a night Dallas won’t soon forget

The Mavericks pay tribute to Luka Dončić

While the Mavericks’ decision to trade Luka Doncic remains heavily criticized, they handled his return to Dallas with undeniable grace. The organization made sure his first game back as a Laker was met with respect and appreciation.

Every seat in the arena was draped with a T-shirt reading “Hvala za vse,” which translates from Slovenian to “thank you for everything.” It was a thoughtful nod to Doncic’s heritage and impact on the franchise.

Before tip-off, during the starting lineup announcements, the Mavericks played a tribute video showcasing some of Doncic’s most iconic moments in a Dallas jersey. The emotional gesture clearly resonated—moving Doncic to tears in front of the crowd that once called him their own.

Luka Doncic ‘DESTROYS’ his old team

Luka delivered a dazzling performance against his former team, putting up 45 points on 16-of-28 shooting, including 7-of-10 from beyond the arc. He also added 8 rebounds, 6 assists, and 4 steals in a game that showed exactly why he’s one of the best in the league.

From the opening tip, Doncic was locked in. By halftime, Doncic had racked up 31 points on 11-of-16 shooting in just 19 minutes—marking the 10th time in his career he’s scored 30 or more in a single half.

Though his scoring slowed in the second half, he continued to lead effectively, securing both a Lakers win and an unforgettable showing for the fans in Dallas.
