Indiana Fever forward Aliyah Boston recently shared insights into the evolving on-court chemistry between herself and Caitlin Clark, highlighting how the duo’s dynamic developed during their first season together. While much of the attention surrounding the Fever in 2024 was focused on Clark’s breakout performances, Boston’s contributions were equally vital to the team’s success. As the Fever prepare for the 2025 season, Boston is excited about continuing to build on their growing partnership and setting their sights on greater achievements.
In an interview with iHeart Radio’s “In Case You Missed It with Khristina Williams” on January 21st, Boston expressed her excitement about the future with Clark by her side. “I feel like there’s no ceiling when it comes to us and the Fever franchise,” Boston said, referring to the potential of their collaboration. She went on to reflect on their progress, noting how their chemistry began to click in the second half of the 2024 season. “We really figured it out together,” she explained, emphasizing the growth of their understanding and playmaking connection on the court.
Boston also praised Clark’s ability to make decisions with the ball in her hands. She highlighted Clark’s court vision, noting that when Clark is directing the offense, she consistently makes the right play, whether it’s passing to Boston or setting up the next shot. “She sees the floor so well, and she knows whether that’s passing it to me or passing it up the floor,” Boston said. With their communication and skills continuing to improve, the pair’s potential is limitless, according to Boston.
As the 2025 season approaches, Boston is focused on refining her own game and staying consistent. The 2024 season saw Boston post impressive numbers, including 14 points, 3.2 assists, and 8.9 rebounds per game, making her one of the Fever’s key players. Heading into her third year in the WNBA, Boston is determined to work on expanding her skillset. “I’m working on my game, working on expanding my game, continuing to work on my consistency,” she said, underscoring her desire to be efficient, especially around the basket. However, Boston also recognized the need to shift her mindset, aiming to focus on her personal growth and not just external expectations. “I need to make sure that I’m doing this for myself,” she admitted, expressing her determination to work hard without the added pressure of outside validation.
The Fever’s ambitions are clear: they are ready to contend for a championship in 2025. After an impressive turnaround last season—recovering from a 1-8 start to reach the playoffs for the first time since 2016—Indiana has set its sights even higher. Although they were swept by the Connecticut Sun in the first round of the playoffs, the Fever are determined to return stronger. Head coach Stephanie White, a Fever legend, has returned to lead the team, and with the core group of Boston, Clark, Lexie Hull, Kelsey Mitchell, and NaLyssa Smith, the Fever are building a squad with championship potential. As the season progresses, the Fever will look to build on their momentum, incorporating new talent and focusing on improving their overall game to achieve their ultimate goal of bringing home the championship.
As the 2025 season approaches, all eyes will be on how Boston and Clark continue to develop their partnership on the court, and how the Fever, as a whole, work together to bring their championship aspirations to life. The stage is set for an exciting year ahead for the Indiana Fever, and fans are eager to see what this dynamic team can accomplish.
