Ozzy Fud made her pro debut with the Dallas Wings in preseason against the Indiana Fever, dropping her first bucket quick over Caitlin Clark. But, Fowl trouble-hit hard with three calls in just eight minutes, limiting her to four points on two for seven shooting in 16 minutes total. Still, Dallas crews to a 95-80 win. Paige Beckers, another Yukon star and last-use rookie of the year, lit it up with 20 points on eight. For 12 from the field and 4-4, six from deep, plus three assists in 20 minutes, setting the tone for the squad. Wings coach Prae's Fud's balance and aggression, saying those Fowls won't face her long term, especially after some tough rim shots, and now they gear up for the next one Sunday. Meanwhile, Sarah Williams flashed in her first game for the Portland Fire, scoring nine points on perfect three-for-three shooting in three-for-four. Free throws in 10 minutes during an 81-91 loss to Seattle,
