Caitlin Clark has been one of the WNBA’s finest players since entering the league, with a national profile that began during her time with the Iowa Hawkeyes. Indiana Fever teammate Aliyah Boston is more than qualified to make a comparison of Clark’s star power with someone else.
After being selected first overall in the 2024 draft, the 24-year-old led the team to its first playoff appearance since 2016 in her rookie season. She averaged 19.2 points, 8.4 assists and 5.7 rebounds in 40 games.

In 2025, she suffered multiple injuries and finished the season averaging 16.5 points and 8.8 assists per game in 13 appearances. Fans love to watch her play. Sometimes her 3-point shooting is compared to Stephen Curry‘s.
So, Boston just shut down any attempts at player comparisons when WNBA legend Candace Parker pressed her on the latest episode of their “Post Moves” podcast.

Parker tried getting Boston to compare Clark to other players in the NBA, but the 2023 Rookie of the Year wasn’t putting her hand in the dynamic trap. Instead, she praised Clark’s smooth game before firmly refusing to draw parallels to anyone else out of the women’s league.

“It’s hard. I feel like it’s hard to compare,” Boston said on the 25th episode of the podcast, which dropped this week. “Like she just like her game is just really smooth. Like it really is. I think I don’t even want to compare anybody. She’s just C, OK? She’s her.”
Parker pushed back, calling it the “PC answer” and noting they were 25 episodes deep into the show. But she couldn’t convince Boston to compare Clark to any NBA players.
“But that’s the answer I have,” Boston said. “I don’t have an answer for that.”

The Virgin Islands native has consistently shown loyalty to Clark as her teammate for two seasons. She has called Clark “our yapper” for being the loudest Fever player, explained how defenses shrink when Clark’s off the floor and joked about her college Final Four loss to Clark’s Iowa squad.
The 6-foot-5 forward averaged 15 points and 8.2 rebounds in 2025 while earning All-WNBA Second Team and All-Defensive Second Team honors. She finished the season with 17 double-doubles, and when Clark was out, she carried much of the team’s workload alongside guard Kelsey Mitchell.
