liyah Boston has full confidence in her team’s abilities ahead of a hyped 2024 WNBA season.
The Indiana Fever are preparing for one of their most exciting WNBA seasons in franchise history. Indiana selected former Iowa women’s basketball Caitlin Clark first overall in the 2024 WNBA Draft. Clark is teaming up with former 2023 No. 1 pick Aliyah Boston. Boston displayed her confidence in Clark amid the ex-Iowa star’s massive fan buzz.Some teams are reportedly considering larger venues when the Fever play them, and Boston gave the perfect response when informed of this. She smiled and said “As they should!” per ESPN’s Michelle Steele.
Boston’s confidence in her team’s abilities is fitting when considering the group they have assembled. Boston looks to return strong after a promising rookie year. She averaged 14.5 points, 8.4 rebounds, 1.3 steals, and 1.3 blocks per game during the 2023 WNBA season. As a result, she won the Rookie of the Year award.
In addition, Boston shot an impressive 40 percent on three-pointers. The former South Carolina center will be an excellent complement to Caitlin Clark. Speaking of which, Clark did not hold back when showing her excitement to play with Boston after the 2024 WNBA Draft.
“There’s so much you can say about her. Rookie of the Year. In my eyes, one of the best players in the league. And like I said, as a point guard, my biggest job is: I’m just feeding Aliyah the ball every single game. That’s what I’m gonna do. I’m gonna go in there and be like ‘Hey, go make a layup.’ She’s gonna make my life easy. But she’s incredible,” Clark said, per Tyler Tachman.
Caitlin Clark and Aliyah Boston should help take the Fever offense to the next level. Clark looks to be one of the team’s new leaders after a stellar collegiate tenure.
Will Caitlin Clark live up to the hype as the 2024 WNBA season approaches?
Caitlin Clark has not played a single WNBA game yet, and she is already projected to be one of the best rising players in the league. Those who watched Clark play in college understand why analysts are so excited about her arrival.
The star guard held career averages of 28.4 points, 8.2 assists, 7.1 rebounds, and 1.3 steals. She shot 37.7% on three-pointers, a respectable percentage, but one that does not completely tell the story of her sharpshooting ability.
Clark hit deep threes with ease, often being compared to greats like Sabrina Ionescu and Steph Curry. Her scoring ability is not the only thing that gave her a respectable name at Iowa.
Clark broke too many records to count during her four years with the Hawkeyes. Most notably, she eclipsed Kelsey Plum and Pete Maravich’s records to become the NCAA’s all-time leading scorer. In addition, she passed Diana Taurasi for most the-pointers in the NCAA Tournament after she went 9 for 20 against LSU in the Elite 8.
Unfortunately, Clark never won a national title, but she did lead Iowa to three straight Big 10 championships and was a March Madness champion runner-up during her last two years.
The 2024 WNBA Draft was loaded, and Caitlin Clark wants to cement herself as a legend with the Fever. If Clark continues to work hard, she, along with Aliyah Boston will have no problems finding success.
Can the former Iowa women’s basketball star live up to the hype and competition that waits for her in the WNBA?
