The transition from college rivals to professional athletes has forged a deep-rooted friendship between Caitlin Clark and Aliyah Boston. Since Clark was drafted No. 1 overall by the Indiana Fever in 2024, the two have moved past their high-stakes NCAA battles to become the face of the franchise’s future, often referring to one another as best friends and pillars of the organization.
The latest evidence of this unbreakable bond appeared on social media, where the duo’s off-court chemistry took center stage. Clark recently shared a post on Instagram that captured her with a prada bag, prompting a hype-filled reaction from her teammate. Boston, never one to miss a chance to support Clark, jumped into the comments to voice her approval with a simple but emphatic: “True swagggggg🤩.”
While Clark’s 2025 season was hampered by injuries—limiting her to just 13 games where she still managed to average 16.5 points and 8.8 assists—Boston stepped up as the team’s undisputed leader.
The 6-foot-5 center put together a historic 2025 campaign. According to ESPN, she averaged 15.0 points, 8.2 rebounds, and a league-best 3.7 assists per game for a center, earning her first All-WNBA Second Team honors in the process.
After dealing with a nagging right groin strain and a bone bruise that shut her down last September, Clark has officially returned to form. She recently dominated the FIBA World Cup Qualifiers, earning tournament MVP honors.
Meanwhile, Boston is also nearing full strength after a minor lower-body injury sidelined her during the late stages of the Unrivaled season. As the Fever prepare for their May 9 season opener, it’s clear that the chemistry between Clark and Boston is more than just a tactical advantage—it’s the heartbeat of the franchise.
