She played 14 minutes off the bench, but was held scoreless on 0/5 shooting (including 0/3 from long range) with 2 rebounds, 1 assist and 1 steal. I think her shooting streakiness will be her Achilles' heel. She shot well from three point range, but from inside the arc, she didn't convert as many baskets as she could have. And in the pro game, with more experienced, taller and stronger defenders, it will be tougher to draw fouls too.
Alanna had a better game for Indiana. She logged 17 minutes as a reserve, scoring 10 points (4/8 shooting and 2/4 from 3-point range) with 2 rebounds, 2 blocks, 1 assist and 1 steal.
Even with all the new additions, the Fever are 0-2 to start the season. Three of their starters are rookies (South Carolina's Henderson, Baylor's NaLyssa Smith and Queen Egbo) with two more rookies off the bench (Hull and Louisville's Engstler), so hopefully they will adapt to the pro game and put up better results.
On the Sparks' side, Nneka had 13 points and 8 rebounds while Chiney chipped in 6 points and 9 rebounds off the bench.
In 4 games, (two pre-season, two regular season games), Hull is 1/21 on field goal attempts. I repeat 1/21 on her field goal attempts.
That is rough. Agreed with previous sentiments that her inaccuracy has always been her undoing.
