PHOENIX, AZ - A police officer aimed a taser at Dallas Wings guard Paige Bueckers during a wild altercation at a Miami nightclub in September 2026. Bueckers, a two-time All-Star, joined her teammate Arike Ogunbowale and several other WNBA stars at E11EVEN to celebrate Ogunbowale's championship victory. An altercation inside the venue led to the group being escorted out.
The incident began when Ogunbowale allegedly punched a nightclub staff member. When Ogunbowale was led away, police approached the group to detain Ogunbowale. Bodycam footage shows Bueckers and others pleading with the officer to let Ogunbowale go. Despite the group's efforts, the officer pointed his taser at Bueckers and demanded she let Ogunbowale go.
The group continued to reprimand the officer, with Unrivaled host Maria Clifton exclaiming, "Stop it. Do not put handcuffs on her. She's a champion." Ogunbowale was later released on a $1000 bond and had a misdemeanor battery charge against her dismissed in May.
