Caitlin Clark and Aliyah Boston seen on-court together for the first time ahead of WNBA preseason

Rookie Caitlin Clark and 2023 WNBA Rookie of the Year Aliyah Boston were recently seen on-court together preparing for the 2023 WNBA preseason.

With training camp set to start on Apr. 28, and the preseason set to tip-off on May 3, anticipation is building around the league. Given the hype surrounding Caitlin Clark, fans have been eager to see her play with Aliyah Boston.

The WNBA, of course, has already anticipated the excitement around the dynamic duo, scheduling 36 of the team’s 40 games for TV, marking a record high. Ahead of the start of the WNBA preseason, Caitlin Clark and Aliyah Boston were seen on-court in a video released by the Indiana Fever.

Here’s the video:

As fans were quick to point out, once the duo perfects the pick-and-roll, they would be a force to be reckoned with. Considering Boston’s ability to take over games in the paint, she and Clark seem poised to take the league by storm.

The Fever finished 10th last season with a 13-27 record and missed the playoffs. Considering that, and the new-look Fever with Clark this season, fans are eager to see how things pan out this time.
