SPOKANE, Wash. — Paige Bueckers exited the game with just more than three minutes to play against Oklahoma to a raucous ovation that made the arena in Spokane — nearly 2,700 miles from Connecticut’s home court in Storrs — sound like it was right in Bueckers’ backyard. She had played just seven minutes in the fourth quarter, outscoring the entire Oklahoma team 19-13 in that quarter, tallying nearly half of her career-best 40 points on the night in that span.

SPOKANE, Wash. — Paige Bueckers was asked earlier this week what her advice would be to younger players competing in their first NCAA Tournaments as the pressure mounts this time of year. Bueckers, UConn’s star guard, kept it simple. “Do what got you here,” she said, “and just level it up a notch.” No one does that quite like Paige Buckets, who took her own advice (and then some) Saturday afternoon in Spokane, Wash., where she dropped a career-high 40 points as No. 2 UConn cruised past No. 3 Okl
