Lexie Hull was one of just four Indiana Fever players to make it through the 2025 season fully healthy.
Injuries ravaged the Fever last season, taking out superstar guard Caitlin Clark, who missed 31 games with multiple injuries, Sophie Cunningham, who missed 14 games after suffering a season-ending torn MCL, Sydney Colson, who missed 14 games after suffering a season-ending ACL injury, and Aari McDonald (foot injury), among others.
Beyond her durability, Hull is a valuable member of the Fever because of her role as a depth player and her hustle on the court.

Hull has improved every year she’s been with the Fever, and she logged career highs in scoring (7.2 points per game), rebounding (4.3 per game), assists (1.8 per game), and steals (1.2 per game), which made her a hot commodity on the free-agent market.
But after weighing several options, Hull elected to stay put and will sign a multi-year contract extension with the Fever. She announced the news on her TikTok page in a video with Clark in which the song “She’s Back” by Diamond Dondada played.
Clark and Hull have been close friends ever since Indiana drafted Clark No. 1 overall in 2024. In addition to keeping Hull, the Fever are also signing free-agent forward Monique Billings.
If Clark returns to her pre-injury form, the Fever should be a championship favorite next season. The team made it to the semifinal round of the playoffs last season despite being ravaged by injuries.
With a healthy Clark, Cunningham, and Colson, plus Hull, three-time All-Star and All-WNBA forward Aliyah Boston, three-time All-Star and All-WNBA guard Kelsey Mitchell, McDonald, forward Natasha Howard, and Billings, the Fever just may be the team no one wants to play.
