Dallas Wings guard Paige Bueckers can be safely categorized as a jack of all trades. From her electrifying presence on the court to her vast superstardom off the court, she has mastered the art of showbiz in more ways than one.<\/p>\n

Bueckers’ latest example saw her be the featured star in a new commercial promoting Secret Deodorant, the No. 1 female-centered deodorant on the market today. Bueckers’ mannerisms in the commercial were extremely relatable to both WNBA fans and fans of products people use daily.<\/p>\n

“Beating the buzzer? That’s easy,” Bueckers said to begin the commercial. Stress-sweating on live TV? That stinks.”<\/p>\n

A narrator then weaves her way in, explaining why this particular deodorant is the best option as opposed to the competitors, before Bueckers adds more fuel to her already basketball-centric monologue. It offers a “work hard, play hard” style approach.<\/p>\n

“Not using Secret Clinical?” Bueckers asked. “Now, that’s a rookie move.” <\/p>\n

As the tagline suggests, “Secret, fresh air under pressure” is the perfect monologue for Bueckers as she is the face of a Wings franchise currently undergoing a rebuild under new coach Jose Fernandez.<\/p>\n

Fernandez recently sat down with Dallas-based ABC station WFAA <\/a>to discuss his transition from college to the WNBA after spending 25 years as the coach at South Florida.<\/p>\n

Fernandez said he and Bueckers are already building a strong connection.<\/p>\n

“Paige is a relentless worker,” Fernandez said. “She wants to be the best. She\u2019s got one of the best mid-range games in the entire world. A three-level scorer \u2014 getting to the rim, mid-range game, and also shooting the three.”<\/p>\n

Having all of those attributes at her disposal makes her easily coachable, Fernandez said.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt was a good understanding on how she responds to coaching, how she wants to be coached, and certain things with her, with the basketball, what she really likes,\u201d Fernandez said.<\/p>\n

It appears Fernandez wants Bueckers to remain the centerpiece of the franchise, just as Bueckers established when she was selected No. 1 overall last spring.<\/p>\n

But, with the No. 1 overall selection again, Fernandez is unbothered by not revealing who he plans to target this year.<\/p>\n

\u201cThere\u2019s been some separation by some folks,\u201d Fernandez added. “I think whoever we take No. 1 is going to be a great fit in the locker room, a great fit in our culture, in our standards, and in the way that we want to play.”<\/p>\n
