The past couple of games have been particularly challenging as the Wings have been without their No. 1 overall pick, Paige Bueckers, who has been in concussion protocol.
However, while Dallas struggles on the court, Bueckers continues to steal headlines off the court, quickly becoming a marketing focal point for the WNBA.
On Wednesday, Bueckers posted a short video to her official Instagram account, showcasing herself shooting around in full Coach attire, with the accompanying caption, “Just be real — and let everyone else think what they want @Coach #CourageToBeReal #CoachxWNBA #CoachPartner.”
Within minutes, Bueckers’ post attracted thousands of likes and comments from fans.

Earlier this year, the league named Coach its official handbag partner, integrating the brand into various player experiences and draft-day fashion elements.
In fact, during the 2025 WNBA draft, several rookies, including Bueckers, were styled by Coach on the draft’s orange carpet.

Through six career games in Dallas, Bueckers has averaged 14.7 points, 6.7 assists, 4.7 rebounds and 2.0 steals per game.
Bueckers’ post is particularly timely as well, given that she is expected to clear concussion protocol this week and could return to the lineup as early as Friday against Los Angeles.
