Fever guard Lexie Hull will replace superstar Caitlin Clark in the 3-Point Contest at the 2025 WNBA All-Star Weekend.
Hull is an excellent pick to replace Clark. She may not be a volume shooter in 2025, but Hull is incredibly efficient from behind the three-point line. She has a 46.8% shooting percentage from downtown and was the most efficient three-point shooter in the W for most of the season.
Hull will go up against Sabrina Ionescu , Kelsey Plum , Allisha Gray , and Sonia Citron in the 3-Point Contest.
Clark announced on Thursday that she will not participate at the 2025 WNBA All-Star Weekend because of a right groin injury. She suffered the injury in the final minutes of Indiana's win against Connecticut at TD Garden in Boston on Tuesday night.
