Lexie Hull earns massive respect from fans after carrying Caitlin Clark-less Fever: "If AB played with her fire she would avg 25-30"  

Lexie Hull dominated the Indiana Fever's online fan spaces after leading the team to their first win in Caitlin Clark's absence against the Mystics on Tuesday. Hull, who is having a breakout season, put up 14 points, six rebounds and four assists, shooting 6 of 9, including two 3s, in Indiana's 85-76 win.

She had 12 points in the third quarter, which turned the game in the Fever's favor as they took a 16-point lead. Hull was a team-high +/- +19. Indiana's offense may not have stayed afloat without her. The others have been inconsistent in Clark's absence, while Hull has averaged 12.5 ppg on 63.5% 3-point shooting as a starter.

Entering Tuesday's showdown amid a 3-game skid, she led the league in 3-point percentage (57.0%) and offensive fouls drawn (12). Hull's tenacity on both ends has impressed the Fever fans, who hailed her contribution to the team's much-needed win against the Mystics.

One fan hailed the fourth-year 3-and-D wing while taunting Aliyah Boston, saying:

Lexie Hull on Fever's first win without Caitlin Clark

Lexie Hull was impressed with the Indiana Fever's performance, especially their teamwork, in Tuesday's win. She credited their playmaking and quick reads, especially in the explosive third quarter that put Indiana in the driver's seat.

"Trying to make those right reads and make them quick…our team just plays really well together," Hull said via Moreau Sports Media Prod Co.

The Fever recorded 19 assists on 30 made shots.

"A lot of our points were off of assists, just really happy with the outcome of the game…it was fun," Hull added.

Meanwhile, Indiana remained efficient defensively, limiting Washington to 12 team assists. The Fever also won the 3-point battle by a wide margin, outshooting their counterparts 11-1. It was the difference between the teams, as the Mystics lost despite shooting 54.1%. Washington also made it a close game down the stretch, trimming Indiana's lead to three points.

However, clutch plays from Kelsey Mitchell and Lexie Hull saw the Fever come through and improve to 3-4 on the season. It's a promising sign for the team, especially with Caitlin Clark nearing the end of her two-week injury hiatus.
