Following the victory, Bueckers was named the tournament's Most Outstanding Player Honors, and she made history when she accepted the trophy as confetti dropped from the ceiling.

UConn Huskies Paige Bueckers, Sarah Strong, and Azzi Fudd speak after the team's Big East Conference Tournament win, each complimenting one another's play the last few games. Bueckers also comments on becoming the first Huskie to ever win the Big East Tournament Most Outstanding Player award three times and her love for playing at UConn.

As expected, Bueckers added another Big East Player of the Year trophy to her collection. She has now won the award in back-to-back seasons and three times overall, which is tied for the most in league history. Bueckers averaged 18.6 points, 4.5 rebounds, five assists and 2.1 steals on 53.4% shooting from the field.
