Caitlin Clark: Lexie Hull disappointed in Caitlin Clark’s ex-teammate’s attire choice

Lexie Hull's Indiana Fever couldn’t get past the Golden State Valkyries on Sunday, falling 75-63 at Chase Center. After the game, Hull caught up with Jada Gyamfi, Caitlin Clark’s former Iowa teammate.

The two posed for a photo that Gyamfi later shared on her Instagram Story with the caption:

“We 🤍 10! @lexiehull.”

Hull reposted the story and responded with a playful jab about Gyamfi’s outfit. Pointing out that Gyamfi was wearing a Valkyries jersey, Hull wrote:

“disappointed in the outfit choice but 🫶🏻”

Gyamfi sported the Valkyries’ No. 20 jersey in support of her former Hawkeye teammate, Kate Martin. Earlier this summer, while attending the Fever’s preseason contest against Brazil at Carver-Hawkeye Arena, Gyamfi donned Fever gear with Caitlin Clark’s number.

Hull finished with eight points and six rebounds. In contrast, Martin came off the bench to put up 10 points and two rebounds.

Stephanie White gives an update on Caitlin Clark's injury

It's been over six weeks since Caitlin Clark suffered a right groin injury against the Connecticut Sun. The Indiana Fever are 9-9 without their star sophomore. The team has slid to eighth in the standings, with only four regular-season games left to secure a playoff spot.

Despite the urgency, the Fever is taking a cautious approach with Clark’s return. Indiana coach Stephanie White made it clear she wants to see more of Clark in practice before putting her back in the lineup.

"I want to see her continue to work to not just build endurance, but to be able to handle contact, 94 feet, as it's going to be in-game," White said. "And to be able to do that and sustain from an endurance standpoint. And that's going to take multiple practices to make sure that there's no regression. And as most of us know, as we get fatigued, we look different. And see how she plays through fatigue."

The Fever’s remaining schedule is not easy, with matchups against the Phoenix Mercury, Chicago Sky, Washington Mystics, and Minnesota Lynx. With the ninth-place Sparks only two games behind, Indiana will likely need at least two wins to clinch a postseason berth.
