Lexie Hull makes startling admission after Caitlin Clark’s Fever replacement struggles
Lexie Hull revealed the Indiana Fever skipped a full film session after their worst loss of the WNBA season as Stephanie White manages her roster without injured Rookie of the Year Caitlin Clark
Lexie Hull kept it honest and said that the Indiana Fever didn’t watch the film after their most significant loss of the year despite being just five games into the WNBA season.
With Caitlin Clark sidelined for the first time this season due to a left quad strain, Indiana dropped an 83-77 road game to the Washington Mystics. Although it was just a six-point loss on paper, the game was their most significant margin of defeat and their second loss in a row.
When asked about the team’s takeaway from a routine film session after the loss, Hull told the media, “We have a lot of areas to grow, but we didn’t watch the film from yesterday. We’re just turning the page. There will be a quick turnaround tomorrow, so we’ll focus on getting back to what we’re good at: playing our brand of basketball on offense and defense. We’re excited to turn the page.”
Instead of a complete breakdown session, head coach Stephanie White clarified to the press that her players would watch back the film individually and in small groups. The Fever play the Connecticut Sun, where White used to coach, two days later in a home game at Gainbridge Fieldhouse.
White said, “We have to grow. We gotta be better. We gotta make sure we’re not making the same mistakes. Sometimes that’s defensive coverage, sometimes that’s lapses in being great screeners.
“Sometimes that’s giving shooters passes, it’s all about the little things.”

However, her 0.67 assist-to-turnover ratio remains one of the worst on the team, and her 87.3 offensive rating is the lowest on the Fever.
Caitlin Clark was sidelined due to injury
The Mystics took full advantage and threw different looks at the veteran backup point guard, including Brittney Sykes, who scored 21 points, and Rookie of the Year candidate Sonia Citron. Shakira Austin and Aaliyah Edwards added punch off the bench with a combined 17 points, more than any Fever player outside of Bonner.Aliyah Boston continued being relentless on the glass and led Indiana in rebounding for the fourth game in five contests. After the loss, she was shown getting extra 1-on-1 practice in preparation for the Sun game. Dewanna Bonner added a season-high 21 points and scored double figures for the first time this season, but without Clark’s trademark vision, pace, and threat from the 3-point line, the team fell flat
The Fever fell to a 2-3 losing record after a one-point heartbreaker against Atlanta, in which Clark scored 27 points.
The next was a 90-88 loss to the defending champion Liberty, in which Clark added 18 points and 10 assists.
