College is all about basketball for Flau’jae Johnson and Paige Bueckers, each a top athlete in women’s hoops. But where Bueckers always surprises fans with dream NIL partnerships, Johnson dazzles off the court and on stage with a mic in her hand. Despite their national basketball recognition, there might be one thing people might sometimes forget – they’re still girls in college! And Johnson referred to one area where the Huskies star could have given her advice.
Back in August, ‘Paige Buckets’ appeared on the LSU guard’s YouTube channel, Best of Both Worlds, where Johnson hilariously asked who had better rizz of the two of them. When it was agreed that the answer was Bueckers, Johnson asked for some tips. In the latest episode on her YouTube, the Lady Tigers star gave an update, “Paige actually didn’t give me any tips. I didn’t ask for the tips off-camera.”
“I kinda had this one in the bag, I already kinda knew so I use my own tips. Ya’ll think I don’t have no rizz but I got rizz. Now if ya’ll want, I can sell my e-book, link in the bio and I’ll show you how to get a proposal, a ‘will you be my girlfriend’ proposal,” the rapper continues. It’s at odds with what she said in August but then again, some would take it as entertainment value!

Then she jokes again about selling a book for tips on rizz if anyone needs it as her guest and stepdad Ameen Brooks also cracks up with her, “Ya’ll be going for anything, ya’ll don’t even be letting nobody ask ya’ll to be there girlfriend, ya’ll just getting in these situationships and all this. Uh-huh, you gotta put in some pain. So if you wanna know how to get cuffed, Imma sell my ebook and my rizz tips. Paige did not help.”
This basketball duo had been appearing together for several pre-season events, including coaching high school basketball teams. Bueckers won that match-up and the trash talk between the two has resumed with the college season, but it all seems to be in good fun.

Although Bueckers had laughingly declared, “I got top rizz in the world,” in August and Johnson agreed, the Huskies superstar had also complimented her rival, “But it’s natural, it’s natural you got it naturally.” Perhaps it should be noted that the UConn player, usually keeping her life private, is not believed to be dating anyone currently, but Johnson is!
Flau’jae Johnson’s surprising update
“I’m a flirt, right? Recently, I’ve been in the dating pool guys but I realized that I can’t flirt for real. I can’t,” Fla’jae Johnson had admitted to Paige Bueckers on her show in August. But fast forward to November, and the Tigers player had a surprising update to give fans on Instagram.

Taking to her stories, she first posted a black and white selfie with the caption, “Y’all won’t believe what just happened.” The next slide was indeed surprising as it showed a room full of roses arranged in heart shapes, bouquets, candles, and balloons – a proper romantic setting. But the highlight was the big words in LED lights that read, “BE MY GF.”
And guess what, one of her stories showed a Polaroid of the whole setting with a person on the right side of the photo, although their face is hidden in the dark. “Ofc,” read the caption of the story. So ladies and gentlemen, even if Johnson did not ask or receive tips from Paige Bueckers, her rizz seems to have been enough in the end!
