After setting a new record, Caitlin Clark calls out Lexie Hull in her first post.
After the Fever defeated the Seattle Storm 92-75 on Sunday, Caitlin Clark has nothing but love for her teammate Lexie Hull. By breaking the record for the most rookie assists in a single season, Clark cemented her place in WNBA history.
Clark attained an astounding 225 assists. The assist that set a record was delivered in style, with teammate guard Lexie Hull, who was enjoying a memorable night, receiving a precise fast-break lay-in.
Hull put on a performance that would define his career, scoring 22 points and making six three-pointers in just seven attempts. Her shooting performance was just amazing, and she played a crucial role in the Fever’s convincing victory.
Social media user Caitlin Clark expressed her admiration for Hull’s performance by writing, “This is now a Lexie Hull fan account.”
Hull’s family was there to support her from the courtside, adding to the great atmosphere of the evening. Hull said in the postgame interview, “It feels great to win in front of everyone.” It’s incredible to win in front of my sister, who traveled from Austin, and my grandmother, who traveled all the way from Spokane. Also, it was really awesome to have them courtside. Exceptionally positive vibe tonight.
With this victory, the Fever improved to 13-15, holding the seventh-best record in the WNBA. They are two games ahead in the win column of the Chicago Sky, who have the eight-best record in the WNBA.
The Fever have been on a roll since the extended break, besting playoff contenders like the Seattle Storm and Phoenix Mercury. The Fever’s recent performances, including Hull’s career night and Clark’s record-setting play, have energized the team as they drive towards a playoff berth.
Clark spoke about their playoff push, putting the moment into perspective in post-game comments.
“Confidence is everything,” Clark said. “Confidence is good for the group, and it’s also contagious. So the more we’ve had of that, the better we’ve been. But like Christie said, obviously, playoffs is our goal. That’s my goal for this team, but it has to be one game at a time. You can’t get too ahead of yourself. That’s how good every single team in this league is.”
