Aliyah Boston Gets Blunt on Playing With and Without Caitlin Clark originally appeared on Athlon Sports. The Indiana Fever are off to a 14-12 start during the 2025 WNBA season. They are clinging to the sixth spot in the league standings, which places them firmly in the playoff picture with 18 games still left to play.

Clark's expected to miss her fifth consecutive game Wednesday when the Fever take on the Phoenix Mercury before starting a four-game road trip. Boston, who has three straight double-doubles in Clark's absence, recently told WNBA legend Candace Parker the Fever have been forced to be more direct at the offensive end.

As Clark casually held an adult beverage on camera, Boston, seated beside her, took one quick glance at the stream setup and made her move. The clip lit up social media almost immediately. What looked like a subtle, instinctive gesture quickly became one of the most shared videos of the weekend.
