The Indiana Fever are still fighting for their playoff lives with the regular season about to come to an end. With just three games remaining before the postseason arrives, the Fever hold a 21-20 record. That has them at No. 8 in the WNBA standings and just one game ahead of the Los Angeles Sparks.
Aliyah Boston has had another good season, but she hasn’t had her running mate alongside her. Caitlin Clark, the face of the Indiana franchise, has only been able to play in 13 games this season due to injury.
While there is still hope for Clark to return to the court this year, she’s running out of time to do so.

In her absence, the Fever have struggled to win consistently. Boston has done as much as she can, but quite often it simply hasn’t been enough.

That being said, Indiana still has a chance to get into the postseason and start fresh.
As the regular season winds down, Boston made an appearance on her “Post Moves” podcast. She revealed one rule change that she would like to see the WNBA implement. Boston wants to see teams continue being able to challenge calls as long as they win those challenges.
“I think that there shouldn’t be a limit on your challenges if you continue to win them,” Boston said. “After two [challenges], you should still be able to challenge if you won both of them. Because one, you’re great at reviews, and two, if there’s another call that could be close to the end of the game, and you need to challenge it, but you can’t because you already won twice. I feel like you should be able to keep your challenge if you keep winning.”
All season long, there have been calls from players, coaches, fans, and the media about missed calls. Allowing head coaches to continue challenging if they’re winning their challenges could help the league avoid those situations.
Boston and her Fever squad have been at the center of questionable calls all season long.

Throughout the course of the 2025 WNBA season, Boston has played in 41 games. She has averaged a career-high 15.2 points per game to go along with 8.2 rebounds, 3.7 assists, 1.2 steals, and a block, while shooting 53.8 percent from the floor.
Will the WNBA be open to the rule change that Boston would like to see? No one knows, but it could make sense for the league to consider the option.
