"The 5-foot-11 guard led UConn to its 12th national championship last season and was named Most Outstanding Player of the Final Four. Since then, she wowed at New York Fashion Week, launched a podcast, took a Caribbean cruise and hobnobbed with Curry on the other side of the globe. She spent the summer much as she has spent every other summer, working to perfect a game that has peaked mostly in quiet gyms in front of well-trained eyes."
"She wants all the minutes she can get during her final season in college after knee and foot injuries cut short her first three years. She wants to help UConn become the first repeat champion since the Huskies won four in a row from 2013 to 2016. "Obviously," she says. She wants to get more vocal on the court and more versatile with the ball."
Azzi Fudd returned to UConn for her final collegiate season after deciding the WNBA can wait. She spent the summer both enjoying activities like New York Fashion Week, a Caribbean cruise and time with Stephen Curry, and working to sharpen her basketball skills in quiet gym settings. Fudd grew up playing card games at her grandparents' lake house and used downtime to learn games like Spades while traveling. Knee and foot injuries limited her first three college seasons. She is seeking maximum minutes, increased vocal leadership, greater versatility with the ball, and to help UConn repeat as national champions.
