The Wings have the first pick in next year&#8217;s WNBA draft, and there&#8217;s a big chance that they would select Bueckers&#8217; girlfriend to play alongside her.<\/p>\n<p>Speaking on her &#8220;Post Moves&#8221; podcast with Candace Parker, Boston predicted that the Wings would draft Fudd. She wasn&#8217;t surprised that Dallas got the first pick, but she sees the franchise appealing to their superstar guard and pairing her with a great shooter.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I could see them going with Azzi at number one,&#8221; Boston said. &#8220;Like, I can see it. So I mean, we&#8217;re not surprised because they did have the worst record for a little minute, but I could see them going with Azzi still number one.&#8221;                            <\/p>\n<p>                                        <img height=\"370\" width=\"660\" data-img=\"https:\/\/staticg.sportskeeda.com\/editor\/2025\/12\/853b4-17648119394554-1920.jpg\" data-img-low=\"https:\/\/staticg.sportskeeda.com\/editor\/2025\/12\/853b4-17648119394554-1920.jpg\" class=\"lazy-img\" alt=\"youtube-cover\"\/>                            <\/p>\n<p>Candace Parker agreed with Aliyah Boston&#8217;s prediction, but she also thought that <a href=\"https:\/\/www.sportskeeda.com\/college-basketball\/azzi-fudd\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer nofollow\" data-is-sponsored=\"false\">Azzi Fudd<\/a> would fit in with the Minnesota Lynx at No. 2 and the Seattle Storm at No. 3. Parker even suggested Olivia Miles as a potential No. 1 pick for the Dallas Wings.<\/p>\n<p>The three-time NBA champion explained that Miles is a pure playmaker and would fit in perfectly with Paige Bueckers, especially if the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.sportskeeda.com\/basketball\/dallas-wings\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer nofollow\" data-is-sponsored=\"false\">Dallas Wings<\/a> want her to be more of a shooting guard. Parker and Boston also discussed other prospects like Awa Fam from Spain, though they don&#8217;t know much about her game.<\/p>\n<p>As for the Fudd-Bueckers pairing, it&#8217;s going to be more logical if Arike Ogunbowale is not returning to Dallas. Fudd is the perfect replacement for Ogunbowale if she decides to sign with a different team in free agency.<\/p>\n<p>Paige Bueckers named to Forbes&#8217; 30 Under 30 List for Sports<br \/>\n<img class=\"lazy-img\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1280\" data-img=\"https:\/\/staticg.sportskeeda.com\/editor\/2025\/12\/27264378-1764812309.jpeg\"  alt=\"Paige Bueckers named to Forbes' 30 Under 30 List for Sports.
