Paige Bueckers shut down the value of "momentum" following the Wings' big win against the Storm on Tuesday night. clutchpoints.com/wnba/dallas-wi…
“I’m not sure we started the game with urgency, but we responded with urgency,” Chris Koclanes said. “I’m asking for urgency in each moment, each possession.” Koclanes previously said the motto for the Wings’ second half is “urgency.”
“I liked that we competed for 40 minutes… I thought we did a good job of protecting the paint,” Chris Koclanes said of the Wings’ defense tonight.
Chris Koclanes said the Wings responded well following a slow start tonight.
“Truly I’m not a huge fan of momentum… Disregarding momentum, we just want to get better every single game,” Paige Bueckers said of the win.
Paige Bueckers said the Storm limited her touches in the first half. Said in the second half things opened up because her teammates made shots, which led to more good looks. Credited her teammates.
“Having that support from them is always special,” Arike Ogunbowale said of her teammates supporting her tonight.
Paige Bueckers said limiting points off turnovers was a focus for the Wings after a slow start.
“The way that I play basketball is the way I try to live my life,” Paige Bueckers said. “She’s a true leader, she always has everybody’s best interest at heart,” Arike Ogunbowale said of Bueckers.
Paige Bueckers said “everybody contributed” tonight. Called it a “team win.”
Wings improve to 7-17 with the win against the Storm. Arike Ogunbowale led Dallas with 20 PTS while Paige Bueckers added 14 PTS and 6 AST #WingsUp
Chris Koclanes will be joined by Arike Ogunbowale and Paige Bueckers for postgame media.
Good to see Arike Ogunbowale playing well. Now the question is if she can find some consistency in the second half. If so, she could finish the season strong. Either way, she really needed a performance like tonight.
DiJonai Carrington, averaging 11.8 PPG, 5.2 RPG, 2.1 AST and 1.4 STL, has been limited to 14 games played in her first season with the Wings. A defensive star with respectable offensive prowess, her return projects to be crucial for a 6-17 Dallas team.
DiJonai Carrington (rib) is AVAILABLE and will make her return for the Wings against the Storm tonight.
Myisha Hines-Allen (leg), Ty Harris (knee) and Maddy Siegrist (knee) are all OUT tonight.

In 2024-25, Mavericks forward PJ Washington recorded the highest true shooting percentage (55.6%) of his career since 2021-22. His PER (player efficiency rating) of 14.0 was the best of his NBA career. Beyond the stats, he also passes the eye test. He plays hard, contributes on…
