Caitlin Clark, Aliyah Boston make WNBA history in latest Fever win
Article excerpt
Caitlin Clark and Aliyah Boston turned in dominant performances Thursday night as the Indiana Fever won their latest game, combining to achieve a historic WNBA milestone. The young superstar pairing continues to redefine what's possible for the franchise, which has undergone a dramatic transformation since Clark's arrival. Their latest outing adds another chapter to a season that has already generated unprecedented interest in women's basketball. The Fever's rise from struggling franchise to contender has been fueled by the complementary talents of Clark's dynamic playmaking and Boston's steady, physical presence in the paint.
Caitlin Clark and Aliyah Boston have set their fair share of individual WNBA records already. On Thursday night, the Indiana Fever's dynamic duo set a record together.
The Fever came out on top of a wild overtime game against the Chicago Sky, winning 114-106. The game featured both teams blowing leads and some clutch moments from star players. When Indiana needed them most, Clark and Boston delivered the goods to help the Fever get over the finish line.
Clark had 32 points, seven rebounds, and ten assists, playing 40 minutes in the process. Boston powered her way to a career-high 34 points and added 12 rebounds, seven of them coming on the offensive glass. In doing so, Clark and Boston became the first set of teammates in WNBA history to each have a 30-point double-double in the same game.

Fever fans have been waiting for a game like this all season, where both of their young superstars are rolling at the same time. Boston had been dealing with an early-season injury, which hampered her effectiveness. And Clark was still recovering from multiple injuries, which limited her to 13 games in 2025.
If this latest game is any indication, Clark and Boston are finding their rhythm. And it's coming at the perfect time. Indiana is now 7-5 on the season, needing to start stacking some wins. It'll be a lot easier to do that when Clark and Boston play like this.
The Fever and their young duo will take the court next on Saturday night, when they travel to Connecticut to take on the Sun. Tip-off is set for 5 p.m. CST on Peacock.
