The W season is officially underway.
With training camp having just started, Wings fans have already been preparing for what looks to be one of the most exciting seasons they’ve had in some time, especially with the backcourt of Paige Bueckers and Arike Ogunbowale.
The duo has a new nickname by Wings fans: Parike. With excitement surrounding likely their new backcourt featuring the No.1 draft pick and their leading point in Ogunbowale, journalist Dorothy J. Gentry got their thoughts on the new nickname:
“It’s pretty cool, obviously Arike’s established herself,” says Bueckers. “To be on the same team as her and share the floor with her, it’s a great blessing.”
Added Arike: “I’m so glad that Dallas was able to get her. She’s an amazing player and she’s already really mature, so she’s gonna come in and make a big impact.”
As camp continues, fans will look to see just how their backcourt—which includes a dynamic scorer in PB and one of the most clutch shotmakers in Arike—builds chemistry and, alongside the entire team, helps re-define Wings basketball in this new era.
Expectations are high, but with new additions and a new head coach in Chris Koclanes leading the helm, the future is looking bright.
