“This UConn star had an intense Spring in 2025, playing on her first national championship team and being picked first in the WNBA Draft,” the hint for the question in the category “Sporty Stuff” read.
The hint was even accompanied by a picture of Bueckers, but the contestant that responded incorrectly named Clark.
