After a breakout freshman season at UConn, Huskies point guard Paige Bueckers has landed her first name, image and likeness endorsement deal: a multiyear partnership with footwear and apparel marketplace platform StockX.
The reigning 2021 John Wooden Award winner -- the first freshman woman to win the annual award since it began in 1976 -- will become "the centerpiece" of StockX's upcoming focus on women's sports and basketball, according to a company spokesperson.
"My partnership with StockX is about equity and authenticity," Bueckers said. "It's about product I love and about shining a light on all the creatives that drive culture. I'm here to celebrate them and, together with StockX, invest in making sure women and women athletes are prioritized, elevated and recognized for their style and their leadership."
Launched in 2016, StockX features more than 125,000 items across its marketplace from over 500 brands. The company saw sales of items total $1.8 billion in 2020, up dramatically from $1 billion in 2019.
