Indiana Fever star guard Caitlin Clark is looking forward to her sophomore season after a video was posted by the organization’s social media team on Monday. The video showcases All-Star forward Aliyah Boston training at Worcester Academy, showing that star players don’t take breaks even in the offseason.
Boston is also gearing up for the inaugural season of Unrivaled, a women’s 3×3 basketball league founded by Napheesa Collier and Breanna Stewart. She recently announced her participation in the competition along with other top players.
Boston is utilizing her free time to prepare her body for competitive basketball once again.
Clark expressed her excitement in the comments section with just four words – “GOT ME FIRED UP,” she commented.
In her second WNBA season, Boston secured another All-Star selection. Across 40 games, the forward averaged 14.0 points, 8.9 rebounds, and 3.2 assists.

Caitlin Clark received respect from her All-Star teammate
Clark’s debut season brought immense excitement as everyone waited to see how she would perform in the professional league. Even her fellow rookies and established players were eager to challenge her. Her teammates rallied around her, allowing her to shine and become a star.
In November, one of her teammates, Kelsey Mitchell, penned an article in The Players’ Tribune, acknowledging Clark’s impact.
“We obviously had a new spotlight on us, with Caitlin being drafted, who I’m proud to call a teammate. That was exciting in its own way, with the fans it brought to the arena, and the opportunity it gave our squad,” Mitchell wrote.
“And I have so much respect for Caitlin, especially, and how she handled it as a youngin’. I hope we did a good job of being there for you, too, C ❤️. I gave her her flowers early in the game because the eyes she brought shined a light on all of us, too.”
In her debut season, Clark earned her first All-Star selection, averaging 19.2 ppg, 5.7 rpg, and 8.4 apg in 40 games. She wrapped up her historic season by clinching the Rookie of the Year Award, signaling greater things to come for herself and the Fever.
