Hello everyone! If you haven't seen our full game coverage of this game you have to check it out here- th-cam.com/video/QCmNujSdOV0/w-d-xo.html It is one of the best girls prep games you will ever see!!
This girl is different, a star in all aspects. Can't wait to see how she grows at UConn, although I wish she would have gone to Oregon bc I'm biased lol
Yea...she doesn't play like a girl. Thats why. Very easy to dominate and stand out. Her path in the future will have ZERO resistance so she will go all the way.
@trha2222 I meant that her feminine traits / genetics aren't taking over when it comes to doing everyday things. Meaning shes not running or handling the ball like a girl. I never said anything or compared her to boys. I won't
Really fun to watch. I don't usually watch high school basketball, or even college ball for that matter. But really fun to watch someone who has great moves and competitiveness regardless of what age/ level.
Val Whiting lmao that statement is more of a detriment towards the WNBA than to the person who made the comment. The WNBA is just full of sorry half assed players who can hardly lay up half the time
For everyone saying she’s not humble........ I have no words. It is EXTREMELY hard to find any bit of cockiness in her. Paige is the most humble person I have ever seen step on that court. She literally said that she loves seeing her teammates succeed. She always talks about being humble and staying true to herself. I have seen her make AMAZING plays, yet she doesn’t rub it in anyone’s face. I can not believe that people can find any bit of cockiness in her.
This girl is the most humble girls basketball player I’ve ever seen, most woman players get a big head like a lot of WNBA players and a couple players on the other team but you don’t see any change in expression on her face even after that huge block, best girls player I’ve ever seen hope she does big things!
Consure the video I saw, there were no drives to the left or pull ups. And no, great players can drive hard to the hole w both hands. I did. I’ve watch a few other videos and it’s mostly right. I’m surprised no one has caught in to that
Michael Houk she probably will be better than me one day. I hope that for her. I hope she exceeds the pro and college career I had. But the fact remains, she uses her right hand a lot and I’d love to see her go left.
I was saying the same thing, the defenders were just letting her go right the whole game and slept on her pull ups from three. Then again, shes a smart player for taking advantage of what the defense gave her...which was everything in this case.
These comments got me so dead people talking about how she’s not humble but if this was the NBA and a guy did some move and cheered after he scored everyone would be hyping him up. Then there’s Those comments that are just straight hating like “can’t wait until she gets locked down in college”. And the whole left hand thing I’ve seen her go left handed multiple time forced or not, y’all out her acting like you live with her of watch ever single one of her interviews or videos. Because most of the stuff you guys are accusing her of where explained in her slam, ball is life and many other videos.
Always relatively to the female game (not comparing to mens game) Paige is a bit more athletic than Luka (again, if you compare her to other women players not Luka obviously) so the comparison is a bit off. If anything Sabrina Ionescu would be a better female comp to Luka
peyton m ya especially over the non reactive defense. Theres a big gap in girls competition on the team. Some of the girls on the team cant even make layups.
I knew a girl a grade ahead of me in high school that averaged 2k points+ and had no coverage. And now girls average the same out below and they’re considered goats in women’s basketball. The chick I went to hs with broke ankles, shot buckets in your face and rebounded and I’m 5’9 and she was about 5’7 or 5’6 and she did everything 🤦🏽♂️🤦🏽♂️
Well if I ever scouting this girl, I'd definitely tell the defender to sit on her right hand and FORCE HER LEFT. I don't think I saw here left one time!
H I a few things. 1. She uses screens and perimeter spacing to get into her spots. Much like Kyrie Irving always goes right. 2. She has a nasty in and out crossover to make you go left while her body is still going right. 3. They naturally position on left hip Bc they are all right handed as well. Simple mechanics
Adam Wittman and i aint takin that away from her trust me ik, she really good but they would probably have a better chance of stoppin her if the forced her left, but idk thats just my opinion🤷🏽♀️thats all i’m sayin
Adam Wittman 6:53 coulda used a left handed in and out but she goes to the side with another defender. She clearly favors her right. Agree with you about the defenders’ positioning tho. their fault for not forcing left
Grayson Grove nobody is so good they don’t need to work on something. Guarantee she works on it which will only bring her game to the next level. I’m sure Geno would say the same thing, oh it’s ok Paige you don’t need to work on that😂
Hello everyone! If you haven't seen our full game coverage of this game you have to check it out here- th-cam.com/video/QCmNujSdOV0/w-d-xo.html
It is one of the best girls prep games you will ever see!!
@mexacleg about the same as yours
She has all the fundamentals of a NBA point Guard. Her game is NBA not WNBA
Don't normally think twice about announcers, but these are guys are damn good -- especially for high school.
They really are on point. I found myself not skipping ahead as much lol
Agree
Seriously. This sounds like a pro broadcast. High schoolers these days are lucky!
@@samig9032 they are pro level for sure
wabdih idk what else these announcers do but I do know they call all Gopher hockey games so they’re pro
Paige Bueckers = Certified Bucket
paige bueckets
She literally passes the ball because she doesnt wanna get all the poiints lmfao. She could easily just control the game by herself
It’s a team sport. If she never passed she would be booted
@@TheGreatHotDogConsumer its a joke smh
@@TheGreatHotDogConsumer Casual please leave
Andrew Gabriel nah, I’m good
If she’s getting assists she’s controlling the game
This girl is different, a star in all aspects. Can't wait to see how she grows at UConn, although I wish she would have gone to Oregon bc I'm biased lol
Oregon got Te-Hina Paopao though! She’s definitely legit, is a McDonald’s All American and leads the #1 team in the nation.
U of M
Yea...she doesn't play like a girl. Thats why. Very easy to dominate and stand out. Her path in the future will have ZERO resistance so she will go all the way.
yeah you and the 3 other people who watch woomans basketball
@trha2222 I meant that her feminine traits / genetics aren't taking over when it comes to doing everyday things. Meaning shes not running or handling the ball like a girl. I never said anything or compared her to boys. I won't
I’m willing to bet she’s going to be the highest paid WNBA player.
for sure
they have a cap, so its more than one
Enters caitlin clark
Both teams were amazing! Congrats to Hopkins! Paige is such a role model and inspiration❤️
4:50 dont leave her hanging like dat
hezi off-foot layup at 9:30 guddamn
Gundam
The crowd lifting her up from the ground at 9:29 underrated
Team was not scoring, so she had to take matters into her own hands
Really fun to watch. I don't usually watch high school basketball, or even college ball for that matter. But really fun to watch someone who has great moves and competitiveness regardless of what age/ level.
better handles than most players in the wnba
She dribbled wit her left like twice only saw clips but still u really reachin wit that statement
alerxsss clearly you never saw a WNBA game
@@ValWhiting1 haven't seen one in a while but are they still dribbling chest high when driving in the paint lol?
Greg Daniels I was just about to say that she never goes left
Val Whiting lmao that statement is more of a detriment towards the WNBA than to the person who made the comment. The WNBA is just full of sorry half assed players who can hardly lay up half the time
Who is responsible for the horrible camera cut mid play at 3:26?
i swear
ya who are those guys
Gotta have that feature of KAT and DeAngelo Russell dawg😂😂😂
Gotta show that KAT is in the building
Paige is super talented
She will go far
Total swagger
4:49 F
Lmaooo
She's really good, hesitation dribbling is such a tool to have in her utility belt.
Legend has it that girl is till waiting for that high five
3:35 chills
3:24 wish they would have gotten kat and dlo's reaction to this block
Her and van lith are my favorite womens ball players and they ain't even pro yet. They both tough💪🏽
I think it's really cool that the pros where there watching Paige!! What a 😎 Awesome thing to see

Can't wait to see her on the USA Women's National team playing for gold.🥇🏆
This girl is the most humble girls basketball player I’ve ever seen, most woman players get a big head like a lot of WNBA players and a couple players on the other team but you don’t see any change in expression on her face even after that huge block, best girls player I’ve ever seen hope she does big things!
New fan here. She is on another skill level compared to her peers. Definitely watching her from now on.
her new name is paige buckets
lol i love it when the rims are setup with mics up
Diana Taurasi, is my all time favorite UCONN and WNBA player. I can see Paige making my list of all time greats!
9:59 PAIGE WAS NOT PLAYINGGGGG!!!
Love it when the crowd gone wild after she blocked a shot
UConn got a good one. We'll see how she progresses.
*great
Seems pretty good to me. Won national player of the year as a freshman lol.
4:48 number 34 got left hanging hard. THAT'S TUF
High school basketball in the midwest is on it's own level
That number 30 for Hopkins, seen her in a couple of Paige Bueckers videos, she's really consistent and strong too.
Title looking like overtime. 👆 🔑
CCX turning into ballislife
dut dut 2.0 😭😭😭
Day 5 of no NBA and I’ve resorted to this...
NBA is boring 3 point shot or dunk. No ball movement. Just stand around and watch the stars launch 3s all night.
John Cooper shut up
@@fingerbanger3567 just my opinion
John Cooper boy stop
John Cooper you sound dumb as hell😭
Haven’t seen her go left yet
Val Whiting when she goes left she’s pulls up usually how most right handlers play
Consure the video I saw, there were no drives to the left or pull ups. And no, great players can drive hard to the hole w both hands. I did. I’ve watch a few other videos and it’s mostly right. I’m surprised no one has caught in to that
Val Whiting shut up she’s better than u
Michael Houk she probably will be better than me one day. I hope that for her. I hope she exceeds the pro and college career I had.
But the fact remains, she uses her right hand a lot and I’d love to see her go left.

She moves more like a guy then most of them girls which is why she is so good. She’s ahead of all of them cause of that
What's that suppose to mean? She's moving like a baller, period. Get that prejudiced stuff out of here
I don’t think she moves like a guy, she’s just more quick and confident
@@lyrawind9144

This chick means serious business, very impressive!
That footwork!
2:08 She got plenty Groupies 😂😂😂 BallisLife PB Defense FEROCIOUS!!! 😳
Paige is incredible but their center #34 is also a beast
A complete, smart basketball player. She is going places.
Paige Buckets is her name, right?
Her defence. 🥵
Cool to see TWolves at a high school game.

Wow amazing talent...hope she remembers to stay humble
4:50 bruh her teammate 😂😂
They didn't do much to contain her. Help defense was late getting over. Having a sophomore guard her didn't help either.
she has handles like nba players, sick
What a great player. I hope she can go to the left of the basket as easily as the right, otherwise college teams will force her to go left.
i love how Minnesotan the announcers sound hahaha
Someday i wanna be a super duper good at basketball like paige and other basketball player
Half-time highlights, 6:26 the "foul" on the 3 point shot. Defender looked to be a good 3 feet away. Bit of a gift.
9:22 hesi is clean
Nice game by the Hopkins team...also good the other team kept you sharp for 3 quarters and 1/2...:)
I'm sure I won't be the first to say this, but she's like a female Luka.
Always relatively to the female game (not comparing to mens game) Paige is a bit more athletic than Luka (again, if you compare her to other women players not Luka obviously) so the comparison is a bit off.
If anything Sabrina Ionescu would be a better female comp to Luka
@Deacon Durham hes a troll
@Deacon Durham Euro players hater
Wonderlandian there is no apples to apples comparisons that can be made amongst lions and ants....... stop
Johannes Bridges female Zion
She is going to be great at UCONN!
#34 4:50 I know the feeling ://
Sweaty Hand 😂
Are they using smaller basketballs?
Paige has Great Court Presence!!!!!! In the College play she will be guarded closer though!!!!!!!! She needs to learn the Fade Away Jumper!!!!
Ain't nobody talking about the sophomore (#10) from Wayzata? As far as I'm concerned she's a talented young ball player.
Yeah she going to the league
@1:21 yes paige is a great player but c'mon the commentator made this sound like some sick play. it's just a normal pass lmao
fr even thought she’s rlly good they hype her up too much for normal things
peyton m ya especially over the non reactive defense. Theres a big gap in girls competition on the team. Some of the girls on the team cant even make layups.
Is it just me or was this a high scoring game for high school?
11 for 11 free throws I'm pretty sure
WNBA MVP right there
You know she’s good when KAT and DLO are there
What state is this in??
Minnesota
Reminds me of the GOAT herself - Diana Taurasi - no fear AT ALL!
She is playing total Basketball.

4:50 number 34. I felt that.
best female player I have ever seen
How has she played 5 years on varsity?
Well if I ever scouting this girl, I'd definitely tell the defender to sit on her right hand and FORCE HER LEFT. I don't think I saw here left one time!
4:50 she left her banging
This girl is a star
Alyssa .. Paige couldn't of made a better choice
than UCONN. Geno is the master of making
players the absolute best they can be.
GO HUSKIES!
And her talent ceiling hasn't even been reach yet. She's going to be scary good.
thumbnail makes it look like an obscene gesture
The little and younger left handet Van Lith is also very good and more powerful...
11:13 smooth
4:50 In such a case, self-high touch.
She’s a great player don’t get me wrong but they really gassing the most ordinary plays. Just go to 1:22 and you’ll see what I mean
Number 10 is an absolute looker.
This is what the wnba needs
Force her left...🤷🏽♀️
agree! she is a bucket but she always go right everytime she has the ball. I dunno if the opponents didnt realize it
H I a few things. 1. She uses screens and perimeter spacing to get into her spots. Much like Kyrie Irving always goes right. 2. She has a nasty in and out crossover to make you go left while her body is still going right. 3. They naturally position on left hip Bc they are all right handed as well. Simple mechanics

Adam Wittman 6:53 coulda used a left handed in and out but she goes to the side with another defender. She clearly favors her right. Agree with you about the defenders’ positioning tho. their fault for not forcing left
She will definitely be forced left, next year!!!
Cool seeing KAT there.
AT 4:26 I feel like the guy in the white tank top with the Slim Shady hair is mouthing "She's so good" lol
she don’t misss😳
number 10 in Wayzata looks so adorable
yo chill
She just moves different. Kyrie is a weirdo but he's a good idol basketball skill wise for her.
She's clearly the best player on the court. But thats some bad defense from Wayzata, they didnt force her left not once lol
She is nice with the ball. Can she go left? Never seen her take it to the basket left handed
Same here...better work on that.
She doesn’t need to
Grayson Grove nobody is so good they don’t need to work on something. Guarantee she works on it which will only bring her game to the next level. I’m sure Geno would say the same thing, oh it’s ok Paige you don’t need to work on that😂

She is amazing player
No one can stop her
3:29 are we gonna ignore the noise she just made
Wyatt Bennett It was ferocious. She’s a beast!
Lay ups are so exciting
