Aliyah Boston passes Caitlin Clark to reveal the history of Indiana originally on Athlon Sports.
Aliyah Boston and Indiana fever, still without Caitlin Clark (groin), dragged up to 21 points against Connecticut Sun on Sunday evening. But, thanks to a six-point outing of 38 points from the WNBA All-Star Kelsey Mitchell, the fever was able to cring through the sun, the old team of Stephanie White, in extension by a final score of 99-93.
While Mitchell paved the way for Indiana, Boston was also a star, entering his name into the franchise records.
Aliyah Boston makes the story of fever
In 36 minutes of action against Connecticut, Boston filled the statistics sheet, totaling 14 points on 7 shots out of 13, 13 rebounds, five assists, two interceptions and two blocks. This also marked the 15th double-double of the former Caroline Southern Carolina striker of the season.
In doing so, Boston is now alone, holding the fever record for most double-doubles in a single season. Clark initially held the record after obtaining 14 double doubles during his recruit year in 2024.
Boston also collected 13 double doubles last season, the third row attacker from the list of franchises with the former Nalyssa Smith (2023) striker, now with the Las Vegas Aces.
With only nine games to play, Clark, who has five double doubles this season, will not be able to break the record before at least next year.

Improving Boston in the WNBA
While Clark has become the clear cornerstone of the young Indiana team, Boston also made a name for himself. The overall choice n ° 1 in 2023 began his WNBA career in Strong, which makes the star team with averages of 14.5 points, 8.4 rebounds and 2.2 assists.
In 2024, when Clark joined the team, Boston saw his score making a slight dive at 14.0 points per game, but his rebounds and aid improved at 8.9 and 3.2, respectively.
This year, Boston probably has its best season to date. Managing her third appearance in stars and first departure, she has an average of career amounts of 15.2 points and 3.6 assists, while entering 8.3 plates per competition.
The next for Boston and the fever is a set of two games against the Lynx of Minnesota, from Friday in Indiana and to conclude Sunday in Minneapolis.
