Paige Bueckers’ LA NFL outing produced some playful tampering from Rickea Jackson

UConn Huskies superstar guard Paige Bueckers appears to have been on a world tour since her college basketball season ended in April.

Bueckers has been seen at numerous sporting and pop culture events this summer and seems to appear in a new and unexpected place every week.

The most recent example of this was when Bueckers randomly showed up at the Kansas City Chiefs vs. NFL game on Sunday. Los Angeles Chargers in Los Angeles โ€“ despite having class at UConn the next day.

Bueckers posted a series of photos from her LA NFL outing to Instagram on Monday with the caption “Better days๐Ÿค” (which was written on her jersey).

This prompted a response from Rickea Jackson, one of the top players in the WNBA’s loaded 2024 rookie class.

Jackson plays for the Los Angeles Sparks. And her comments made it clear that she is trying to keep her city at the top of Bueckers’ minds.

Jackson responded to Bueckers’ post with “LALALALALALALA,” while her Sparks teammate Azura Stevens added, “ayeeeee la ๐Ÿ˜Ž.”

While the order of the 2025 WNBA Draft has not yet been determined, the Sparks have the best chance to land the top pick as they had the worst record in the league this season.

And Jackson’s hilarious social media activity didn’t end there.

โ€œTraitor,โ€ Jackson replied to X.

The tampering accusation is a joke, of course, because nothing Jackson says or does can affect which pick the Sparks will have in the Draft.

But if they secure that top spot, expect Bueckers to be in Los Angeles much more often in 2025.
