It seems Lexie Hull isn’t just winning on the court but also acing the game of life! The Indiana Fever star, fresh off a season that saw her team make the playoffs for the first time in eight years, traded basketballs for buttered rolls this Thanksgiving. Sharing a cozy Instagram story with boyfriend Will Matthiessen, Hull radiated joy, gratitude, and the kind of smile that says, “I blocked your shot and then ate pie.”
“Thankful,” Hull captioned her post, keeping it simple yet effective—like her spot-up threes. Fans immediately flooded the comments with love, emojis, and the occasional “Come to my team, please!” plea. Clearly, Hull knows how to make people swoon, both on and off the hardwood.
Indiana Fever: From Snooze to Smooth
Hull has been instrumental in the Fever’s transformation from “Indiana Sleepers” to “Indiana Creepers-up-the-Standings.” Her numbers? Modest but impactful—5.5 points, 2.5 rebounds, and 1.1 assists per game during the regular season. But in the playoffs, she decided to level up, averaging 6.5 points, 4.5 rebounds, 2 assists, and a jaw-dropping 2.5 steals. It’s as if she looked at the stat sheet and said, “More, please!”
The Fever may have bowed out in the first round to the Connecticut Sun, but their 20-20 record speaks volumes about a team that’s no longer content with mediocrity. And let’s not forget Rookie of the Year Caitlin Clark, Hull’s running mate in the backcourt, who was dishing dimes like Oprah hands out cars.

Speaking of Clark, Hull has formed a bond with the young phenom that’s tighter than a game-winning buzzer-beater. On the Shes4Sports podcast, Hull gushed about their off-court camaraderie, saying, “Connections really play a part in team success.” Translation: You can’t win rings if you’re not vibing during karaoke night.
Hull also admired Clark’s ability to handle the weight of expectations, calling her maturity “awesome” (a word that’s doing some heavy lifting here). The two have clicked on the court as well, making life miserable for opponents and creating highlight reels for the Fever faithful.
What’s Next for Lexie Hull?
With 205k Instagram followers and counting, Hull is proving she’s not just a baller but also a budding influencer. Whether she’s posting game-day pics, life updates, or the occasional romantic snapshot, her star is rising faster than a halftime dunk contest.
As the Fever gear up for another season, fans can only hope Hull’s Thanksgiving glow carries into 2025. And if it doesn’t? Well, there’s always next year’s pie.
