Geno Auriemma is keeping his cards close to his chest when it comes to Paige Bueckers’ status for Thursday’s matchup against No. 19 Arkansas.
The freshman twisted her ankle in the final minutes of UConn’s win over Tennessee last Thursday and though she eventually returned to that game, she sat out the Huskies’ win over Georgetown on Saturday.
According to Auriemma, Bueckers “feels better” and did “some light shooting drills and stuff” on Monday but did not practice on Tuesday. He declined to definitively say whether or not she’ll suit up against the Razorbacks.
