The Indiana Fever have been playing without Caitlin Clark for quite some time.
Indiana has gone 5-2 in its last seven games, so it wound up having success despite the loss of Clark, but the Fever are certainly missing their anchor.

While the Fever await the return of one of the biggest stars in the WNBA, all eyes are on Indiana forward Aliyah Boston.
Boston has taken over some of Clark’s duties on the offensive and defensive ends of the floor, proving to be one of the most versatile forwards in the league.
In a recent interview on WNBA legend Sue Bird’s podcast “Bird’s Eye View with Sue Bird,” Clark revealed her thoughts on Boston’s game.
“She has such a good feel for the game,” Clark said. “Such a great facilitator for our team. She’s the best all-round post player in the league. I don’t think it’s up for question.”

Aliyah Boston has been with the Indiana Fever for the past two seasons. Boston has been named a three-time All-Star since entering the WNBA, seemingly stamping herself as one of the most promising players in the league.
Throughout her third season with the Fever, Boston has posted 15.1 points, 8.4 rebounds and 3.7 assists per game. Boston is in line to average the most points and assists per game in her WNBA career.
She may not have the same impact as Caitlin Clark on the offensive end, but Boston’s impact on the Fever is unmatched.
