Indiana Fever guard Lexie Hull reached agreement with Unrivaled to play in the player-owned league’s inaugural season.

She’s the first Fever player to join Unrivaled, which features 30 players on six teams for games of 3-on-3 during the WNBA offseason. The league was co-founded by Napheesa Collier and Breanna Stewart with games to be played down in Miami beginning in mid-January.

Recently, they agreed to a multi-year media rights deal with TNT to broadcast at least 45 games during the upcoming season. The league is scheduled to tip off on January 17th.

Playing 3-on-3 suits her game and she has experience doing so with USA Basketball. Players tag in and out often, and you’re constantly seeking out mismatches.

“You end up learning each other’s games very, very quickly,” Hull said before the season. “You're playing every position, guarding every type of player, so you really have to trust and rely on each other.”
