Aliyah Boston was unable to finish Friday’s game due to what the Indiana Fever called a lower leg injury. She totaled 9 points and four rebounds in 21 minutes. Boston previously injured her lower leg while playing in Unrivaled during the offseason. It’s unclear if this is a reaggravation of the same injury or a separate injury.
Two days after being held without a made field goal for the first time in her career, Boston quickly rebounded from her quiet outing against the Los Angeles Sparks and made her presence felt early against the Washington Mystics.
The three-time All-Star finished with just 4 points on Wednesday in Los Angeles, missing all three of her shot attempts while fouling out, but she eclipsed that total in the first quarter Friday night. Boston made her first shot attempt in the paint off a pass from Caitlin Clark, and followed that up with a wing 3-pointer on the Fever’s next possession.
