“Heartbreak Unleashed!” 😢 Why UConn’s Paige Bueckers Brought to TEARS by ESPN’s Holly Rowe Halftime Request Revealed—The Emotional Moment That’s Sending the Entire Internet Into a Frenzy!
Paige Bueckers isn’t just a fan favorite; she’s a media darling, too, but she doesn’t always want to speak to reporters.
The Uconn Huskies women’s basketball team was in action on Sunday and made history by ending the South Carolina Gamecocks’ 71-game home win streak.
Bueckers and the No. 7 UConn Huskies jumped out to an early lead, taking a 45-23 lead into halftime.
She usually embraces the spotlight, but she was clearly not interested in speaking to ESPN.
Paige Bueckers was caught doing the unexpected. She bolted from an interview and left the reporter awkwardly holding the microphone as she waited for her to come back.
Her reaction showed just how much she was uninterested in doing that interview with ESPN reporter Holly Rowe at the half.
X user @sportsfan6718 posted a fan’s video that was captioned, “Paige did NOT want that interview.”
Here Is How Social Media Reacted:
“lol, she just wanted to get some rest,” one fan said.
“I just know she was running hoping that the interviewer wouldn’t catch her running past 😭😭,” a second fan stated.
“Trust if she kept running Holly was running behind her to get that interview 😂,” a third fan added.
“😭 she put her hands on her head, she just wanted to rest up lol,” a fourth fan stated.
One final fan stated: “Why does she look like her whole life is over 😭😭😭.”
