Aliyah Boston’s Powerful Moment With Caitlin Clark During WNBA Debut Loved by Fans

Aliyah Boston was seen coaching up Caitlin Clark as they made their way to the locker room at halftime of their game vs. the Connecticut Sun. /

Caitlin Clark's WNBA debut didn't go exactly as she hoped as the former Iowa star finished with 20 points and 10 turnovers in the Indiana Fever's 92-71 loss to the Connecticut Sun on Tuesday night.

Clark did make four three-pointers on the night and seemed to get more into a groove late in the game after some early foul trouble landed her on the bench for a bit during the first half.

ESPN's cameras caught a powerful moment as Clark made her way to locker room at halftime. Teammate Aliyah Boston, the No. 1 overall in the 2023 WNBA draft, was seen coaching Clark up as they walked off the court and into the tunnel.

This was pretty great:

Boston and Clark should form quite a duo in the WNBA. Fans loved seeing that moment between the two:

Great leadership. She will eventually adjust and settle in https://t.co/uOkWG8BVJ2

I think this will be how the Fever begin to create a winning culture. Can’t shy away from the process. They had the #1 pick for reason. I love it! https://t.co/GuLh8i9xmV
