"Brought Tears To My Eyes": Indiana Fever Star's Mom Can't Hide Her Feelings

"Brought Tears To My Eyes": Indiana Fever Star's Mom Can't Hide Her Feelings originally appeared on Athlon Sports.

The Indiana Fever will face the Chicago Sky in one of the biggest WNBA rivalry games of the season, but both teams will be missing key players.

Caitlin Clark and Angel Reese are both out of the lineup Saturday, dealing with injuries during their second season in the WNBA.

While Clark has been sidelined, the Fever have had to rely on players like Lexie Hull in the backcourt.

Hull found success early in the season but has struggled over the past several games, posting just two combined points in the Fever's last three contests, shooting 1-for-17 from the field.

While Hull is struggling, one Fever fan took to social media, sharing her support for the Indiana guard.

"I want everybody to know that y’all gonna have to call the SWAT to get me off Lexie Hull’s bandwagon," said the fan. "I’m not leaving. She’s just going through a rough patch, it’s okay, I’m not worried. You’ll always have a fan in me Lex."

After the fan shared the post on social media, Lexie Hull's mom, Jaime Hull, mentioned that she was brought to tears by the message.

"This post brought tears to my eyes," Jaime Hull said. "Nobody will ever understand how hard Lexie is on herself. As her mom I wish I could fix it. I can’t. This is something she has to do on her own. Thanks to every single one of you that support her! Supporters>Haters."

Throughout her fourth season in the WNBA, Lexie Hull has posted 6.5 points, 4.2 rebounds and 1.6 assists per game for the Indiana Fever.

In the Fever's most recent matchup, a loss to the Phoenix Mercury, Hull scored two points while adding six rebounds in 27 minutes. The two games prior to their matchup against Phoenix, Hull was scoreless.

Hull will have an opportunity to bounce back and find her rhythm when the Fever face the Sky on Saturday at 8 p.m. ET.
