Paige Bueckers cemented herself as the 2025 WNBA Rookie of the Year on Wednesday night with a historic 44-point performance, but her Dallas Wings were stunned at the buzzer by Kelsey Plum, who lifted the Los Angeles Sparks to an 81-80 victory that kept their playoff hopes alive.

Plum took matters into her own hands and attacked the basket without fear, delivering a floater to win the game 81-80 as time expired. The WNBA shared a slow-motion video of the play in an alternate angle, further highlighting how clutch the shot was.

Kelsey Plum has fessed up to making a bad joke when she took a swipe at Caitlin Clark and the rest of her All-Star team last month. WNBA players made a huge statement before the contest, wearing T-shirts bearing the words “Pay us what you owe us.”

WNBA star Kelsey Plum clarified that her controversial comments about Caitlin Clark's All-Star team were a joke during the WNBA-CBA negotiations.

So since we know her averages, it’s no surprise that Plum tied the WNBA record for most 20 and five games in a single season with her 18th of 2025 on Sunday.
