Caitlin Clark trolls Fever teammate Aliyah Boston
Indiana Fever star Aliyah Boston and her teammate Lexie Hull both played for the Unrivaled Basketball League. Unrivaled is a 3-on-3 league with full-court gameplay created by WNBA stars Napheesa Collier and Breanna Stewart. The idea of the league was to keep women's basketball fresh while giving them another platform to showcase their talents.
The inaugural season of Unrivaled concluded with Rose BC defeating Vinyl BC in their championship game. Interestingly enough, Fever players Boston and Hull were adversaries in this matchup. Boston represented Vinyl, while Hull suited up for Rose.
The Indiana Fever congratulated Lexie Hull for her huge Unrivaled championship victory on social media. While many congratulated Hull in the comment section, fellow Fever teammate Caitlin Clark went the opposite route and decided to troll Aliyah Boston instead.
"@aliyah.boston you didn't deserve this. I'm sorry," Clark sarcasitcally wrote.
With Unrivaled's first season already done, all WNBA players who participated in the league will now turn their attention to the upcoming 2025 season.
Opening night is set for May 16, Friday. The 2025 season will mark the league's first-ever 44-game campaign. This is a significant milestone for women's basketball as they elevate themselves in proving that they are just as durable as the men in the NBA.
