Chicago – In your professional career, just six games, number 1 draft picge beukers are still learning and using for the routine of their new WNBA life. She has more media to do, and she has to be suited to new colleagues, new coaches and a new hometown. But at one place she has always been comfortable, in court.
After a slow start on Thursday night, the beukers scored 15 points and assisted 8 in the loss of 97–92 in the wings of wings. The end of the game was similar to a boxing match, with the trade of two teams and with large shots until a significant rebound of Chicago’s Kamila Cardso helped to seal the first win of the Sky season.

This is the kind of game that would like to learn wings. Both teams will face again in Texas on Saturday.
“Good thing is, we meet them to see them very quickly. So now we see how we can see and what adjustment we can do, and see how we can answer, right?” Wings coach Chris Koklanas said after the game. “We did a lot of good things. Thought that we have done enough things to win that game. It doesn’t look great, but still there are many positive moments that we can actually make.”

To increase your identity and find out for wings and especially for beukers is the initial goal. After a record of 9-31 in 2024, veteran WNBA veteran Kurt Miller was brought as GM of the team, and Koklan was hired as a head coach. When the team landed on the top pick in the draft of 2025, there was not much question to whom they would choose.

Bueckers led Uconn in the NCAA Championship on 6 April. He was drafted on 14 April and started a training camp a few weeks later. She is still learning from her peers, and they are learning her.
“Every time we practice, every time we play, and then with our language and vacancy on our aggressive intentions and floors, every occasion has to go out of there, it is simply getting more and more comfortable when she is in the same figures and the floor looks the same,” Cocans said. “Now, you know, they read and are even better and better, and she is able to do just what she does. She can be just more smooth and more confident, more comfortable, because we continue to play the game.”
A basketball season is linear, the most important game with the next game. Conventional, 44-game WNBA season is tireless, and the beekers are learning how to get better on the fly.
“I reflect and learn and grow it, but in reality I focus on moving my leg forward at a time. How do I do better every single day, try to be the best team partner, the best leader, and contribute to winning in any way, which can be seen at any night, it can be different,” said the beuker. “So just trying to keep my head down, keep working, and as a group, we are all trying to learn to be better. There are many areas to grow, but we are just hungry and we want to be better, and we want to win.”

She said that she is always looking to improve those areas.
“Every game asks to do something different, and I am proud to be ready for anything that is thrown at you,” said the beukers. “Just playing in possession and learning to grow from sports from sports and in which areas we can get better.”
Of course, what happens on the court as a professional basketball player, and the excellent colleges of beukers earned their fans in every WNBA city. Chicago was no different.

Dozens of fans of Vintrest Arena were wearing shirts and jerseys with her name on her. One placed a pink American flag on it with the similarity of beukers. He attracted the growing media crowd during the pregem, and after the game, hundreds of fans waited near Wings Bus to congratulate the team. This is a lot of pressure for someone, especially a 23 -year -olds less than two months removed from college. But remember where she came from, it is important for beukers.
“I think I have been blessed a lot, and I want to give back what has been given. It’s just better that it is better to share things with others, just take it by yourself.” “I was once a little girl in the stand once in the stand, just looking at all my idols, so I am trying to be a great role model and getting as many people as possible and help this world to be a better place that God has given to me, the stage basketball has given me.”
