Fever’s Aliyah Boston leaves game against Mystics with lower leg injury
Aliyah Boston was unable to finish Friday’s game due to what the Indiana Fever described as a lower leg injury. She totaled 9 points and four rebounds in 21 minutes in the Fever’s home game against the Washington Mystics. Boston previously injured her lower leg while playing in Unrivaled during the offseason.
It’s unclear if this is an aggravation of that injury or a separate injury. Two days after being held without a made field goal for the first time in her career, Boston quickly rebounded from her quiet outing against the Los Angeles Sparks and made her presence felt early against the Mystics. The three-time All-Star finished with just 4 points on Wednesday in Los Angeles, missing all three of her shots while fouling out, but she eclipsed that total in the first quarter Friday night.
Boston took her first shot in the paint off a pass from Caitlin Clark, and she followed that up with a wing 3-pointer on the Fever’s next possession. This article originally appeared in The Athletic . Indiana Fever, WNBA 2026 The Athletic Media Company
