The Apple TV docuseries The Dynasty: UConn Huskies condensed four decades of Geno Auriemma’s program into just three episodes. The series captures plenty of unforgettable moments and gives viewers an inside look at one of the greatest dynasties in sports. Still, many, including a former Milwaukee Bucks All-Star, believed the documentary highlighted Paige Bueckers but missed the opportunity to tell the story of many other layers.

Michael Redd’s biggest criticism was centered on Paige Bueckers, whose fifth and final season became the central storyline of the documentary’s final episode.

“Real talk,” Redd tweeted, “Watched The Dynasty. It was alright. Glad we’re getting more coverage of women’s hoops, but we can still be honest when one kinda misses.

“Stewie and Maya, two of the greatest to ever do it, and they’re in this thing for what, a few minutes? Come on. The doc’s called The Dynasty. Those two are half the reason there even is one. GOATs.

“And that last episode is really just a Paige story with the team kinda scattered around her. Her story’s worth telling, for sure. She’s awesome. But I remember that so much went on with that group.

“Kaitlyn Chen comes over from an Ivy and fits in seamlessly. Azzi fights all the way back from the injury to win MOP. Sarah Strong walks in a freshman already looking WNBA ready. Barely any of that was covered in a meaningful way. Good flashes and moments, but C+ for me. Not that anybody asked, ha.”

Azzi Fudd’s comeback became a major part of UConn’s 2025 championship story. After missing most of the 2023-24 season with a right-knee ACL and medial meniscus injury, Fudd returned the following year and averaged 13.6 points in 34 games.

She was even better in the NCAA Tournament, averaging 17.5 points. In the championship game against South Carolina, Fudd scored 24 points, grabbed five rebounds and added three steals, earning Final Four Most Outstanding Player honors as UConn won its 12th national title. Kaitlyn Chen was another important piece.

After a decorated Princeton career that included 2023 Ivy League Player of the Year honors and three Ivy Tournament MOP awards, she transferred to UConn for her final season. Chen started all 40 games, averaged 6.9 points, and recorded 135 assists. Then came Sarah Strong’s remarkable freshman season.

The forward started all 40 games, averaging 16.4 points and 8.9 rebounds while shooting 58.6% from the field. She led UConn in rebounds, blocks and steals and earned Big East and WBCA National Freshman of the Year honors. Strong saved another spectacular performance for the title game, posting 24 points and 15 rebounds with five assists against South Carolina.

Not just them, in fact, Breanna Stewart and Maya Moore, two players who helped define the Huskies’ modern dynasty, received surprisingly little attention in comparison to Paige Bueckers.
