Dallas Wings rookie Paige Bueckers wore a custom Dapper Dan tunnel fit for her Minnesota homecoming. Here's 5 photos of her iconic look.

The home opener for the Lynx on Wednesday night at Target Center was briefly overshadowed by a homecoming for Minnesota native Paige Bueckers. She garnered a loud cheer during player introductions for the Dallas Wings before the Lynx ran out of the tunnel.

The Lynx then pushed their lead to double digits late in the second quarter and nearly entered the locker room with a 10-point advantage after Natisha Hiedeman’s wild half-court shot at the buzzer went in. Her shot was deemed just barely too late, however, and the Lynx’s lead remained seven.

Paige Bueckers admired the Minnesota Lynx as a kid while cheering on each of the four WNBA championships that played a part in her ascension to becoming the first overall pick in the draft last month.

It would be extremely fitting if Bueckers can win her first WNBA game back in Connecticut, where she became a huge basketball star with UConn. Bueckers has already had a homecoming in her home state of Minnesota when the Wings faced the Lynx last week. Now, she will have her reunion at her second home in Connecticut this week.
