Caitlin Clark showered love on Fever co-star Aliyah Boston for her latest milestone on Saturday. Boston became the first player in her high school alma mater, Worcester Academy's history, to have a jersey retired.
Born in Saint Thomas, Boston attended Worcester Academy in Massachusetts, where she earned McDonald's All-American honors and was the state's three-time Gatorade Player of the Year. Boston also won three Team USA gold medals during her time there.
Boston earned one of the biggest honors in her high school alma mater after finding massive success in her college career and early into her two-year WNBA career. Clark took note of the achievement after Boston had shared the news on Instagram.

Aliyah Boston hypes Caitlin Clark for Time Magazine's Athlete of the Year win
The Indiana Fever star duo of Caitlin Clark and Aliyah Boston has had a busy offseason, with both earning major accolades. Before Boston got her jersey retired at Worcester Academy, Clark bagged the Time Magazine's Athlete of the Year award, becoming the first WNBA player to win it.
Several basketball players congratulated stars, including Boston, who dropped a five-word message, saying:
"We love to see it"
Clark and Boston enjoyed a successful debut season together in the WNBA. They led the Indiana Fever to a playoff berth after eight years. Clark averaged 19.2 points, 5.7 rebounds and 8.4 assists, while Boston tallied 14.0 ppg, 8.9 rpg and 3.2 apg. Clark replicated her co-star's 2023 success and became the second consecutive Rookie of the Year from the Fever.
Caitlin Clark and Aliyah Boston's chemistry already developed significantly last year, and that could improve further as they begin their second season together in six months under new coach Stephanie White.
The Fever came to life with a 3-10 start, going 17-10 to finish with a 20-20 record. A brief stretch saw them become one of the best offensive teams in the league behind Clark and Boston's dominance. With a new coach and the experience of that massive stretch, Indiana could turn heads from the get-go behind their star tandem.
