Dallas Wings forward Alanna Smith was shown love by Paige Bueckers, Sophie Cunningham and other members of the WNBA faternity on Monday. The $3.7 million forward received reactions from WNBA stars in her IG recap, with many leaving heartfelt comments.

Smith shared a recap on IG before heading to Berlin for the FIBA World Cup.

“A tiny recap before World Cup kicks off… be back soon 🕺🏼🪽,” Smith captioned the post.

Sharing a nine-slide post, Smith showcased different aspects of her season, including moments both on and off the court. The images quickly caught people’s attention, with many of her teammates, including Paige Bueckers, reacting to it.

“Miss you already, you little gremlin,” Bueckers wrote.

“Double tap 1k times 🥰🥰🥰,” Alysha Clark added.

“Good luck 🤭🦘, ” Arike Ogunbowale remarked.

“Go be great 😍🤩,” Jessica Shepard commented.

However, her teammates weren’t the only WNBA players reacting to the post, as Fever star Sophie Cunningham also showed love to Smith in the comments.

“Cutie😍,” Cunningham expressed.

Smith received ample love from her peers on her post as she heads to Germany as part of Australia’s squad at the FIBA World Cup. The forward, who previously won bronze with the Opals at the 2024 Olympics, will hope to help her team go further this time around as they look to take Team USA’s crown.

Smith and Co. have been drawn in Group C alongside Belgium, Turkey, and Puerto Rico and will face the latter in their first group game on Friday.

Sophie Cunningham once praised Paige Bueckers and the younger generation for “changing” the WNBA

Sophie Cunningham once praised Paige Bueckers and her generation of players, including Angel Reese and Cameron Brink, in February. The Fever guard offered praise while discussing their impact on the WNBA.

During an appearance on the “Like a Farmer Podcast,” Cunningham discussed the difference Bueckers and the rest of the group have made in the WNBA, while highlighting how their social media followings have helped bring more fans to the league.

“Angel Reese, Cameron Brink, Paige Bueckers, like they’re just in that generation that social media was a huge thing and they brought the collegiate fans into the W,” Cunningham said.

“And so it’s like a huge, it’s a great time to be a part of it. And so instead of being jealous, I think people should just be thankful and, you know, go make your money now.”

Despite being a fierce competitor on court, Cunningham remains one of the most outspoken WNBA players and does not shy away from showing love to individuals.
