Aliyah Boston · Settled somewhere between having a sky-high ceiling and scratching the surface of their potential, the Indiana Fever, by mid-July, had both elevated in the standings and introduced three new, first-time All-Stars. On July 6, 2024, the opportunity arrived to cross another key milestone from their unofficial checklist: a victory over a WNBA elite. A proven presence in high-stakes environments collegiately, Aliyah Boston tests her excellence against the No. 1-ranked New York Liberty, first by receiving a top-of-the-key pass with all-world defender Jonquel Jones shadowing her movements. Intuitive in her handle, Boston blends a crafty switch-hand dribble and a powerful spin, step-through combination to set her free for a scoop finish, bringing the crowd to its feet. A consistent, reliable outlet throughout, Boston supercharged Indiana’s offense with 18 points (on 8-of-12 shooting), eight boards, two assists, one steal, and two blocks, perfectly complementing her teammate, who offered league history’s first-ever rookie triple-double. The end result encouraged a signature victory, with the Fever outscoring New York by 12 in the fourth quarter for a come-from-behind triumph. · State of Mint · State of Mint
