Ahead of the start of WNBA free agency, the Indiana Fever made an eye-popping announcement regarding their venues. Following this news, one member of the team is already using it to try and lure in high-level talent.

On Thursday, the Fever announced plans for a new state-of-the-art training facility for the franchise. The $78 million project is set to break ground this summer and will be completed before the 2027 season.

In light of this news, Fever forward Aliyah Boston was asked her thoughts on the team's upgrade coming down the line. She replied with a short message, imploring all WNBA free agents to make their way to Indiana.

"At all free agents, you know where it’s at,” Boston said.

Boston, a former No. 1 pick, is fresh off her second season with the Fever. The 22-year-old was named an All-Star after posting averages of 14.0 points, 8.9 rebounds, 3.2 assists and 1.2 blocks per game.

This offseason, Boston is among the many women competing in the first season of the new women's league Unrivaled. She is part of "Vinyl Basketball Club," playing alongside the likes of Arike Ogunbowale, Rhyne Howard and Dearica Hamby.

Boston and Vinyl will be in action on Unrivaled's opening night Friday, playing against Angel Reese and "Rose Basketball Club."


Who are the top WNBA free agents this offseason?

Aliyah Boston sent a clear message to free agents across the WNBA, and for good reason. Along with their new training facility in the works, the Indiana Fever has a lot to offer any player looking for a change of scenery.

Looking across the WNBA, there are a handful of interesting names on the free-agent market. One player every team in the league will be keeping an eye on is Breanna Stewart. Fresh off leading the New York Liberty to a championship, the two-time MVP is an unrestricted free agent. Last season, Stewart averaged 20.4 ppg, 8.5 rpg and 3.5 apg.

Aside from Stewart, another high-level talent hitting free agency this offseason is Kelsey Plum. The three-time All-Star is coming off a season with the Las Vegas Aces where she averaged 17.8 ppg, 2.6 rpg and 4.2 apg.

Boston's comments aside, the Fever are a team with some big decisions to make in free agency. They have two key players hitting the open market in Erica Wheeler and Kelsey Mitchell. Along with bringing in new talent, the front office also has to attempt to retain their free agents.

Over the past year, the Fever have become one of the more attractive destinations in the league. They have a future superstar in Caitlin Clark and just hired a very knowledgeable coach in Stephanie White.
