Aliyah Boston seems really pumped for the upcoming WNBA season with her team, the Indiana Fever. Boston recently posted a video on her Instagram account, showing her training and working hard in the Indiana Fever training facility.
The player has had an eventful WNBA off-season after being a part of the Vinyl basketball club in the inaugural season of the Unrivaled League. It looks like Boston will be making use of the remaining offseason to retrain her focus for the WNBA.
“We are so backkkkk,” Aliyah Boston captioned the video showing herself training on the court at Indiana Fever’s facility.
