VILLANOVA, Pa. — Paige Bueckers scored 15 points before leaving the game with an injury to help No. 7 UConn rout Villanova 83-52. Bueckers added nine assists for the Huskies before getting hurt with 1:17 left in the third quarter after a collision near midcourt. Bueckers was going for a loose ball when Villanova's Jasmine Bascoe dove and went into the All-Americans' left knee, bending it back awkwardly. Bueckers sat on the court for a minute before limping off. She went to the locker room before returning to the bench a few minutes later. She didn't go back into the game.
