Aliyah Boston Reaches 800 Career Rebounds Milestone
Aliyah Boston added another remarkable achievement to her growing WNBA résumé on Tuesday night. A display that made her the ninth-fastest player in league history to reach 800 career rebounds. The historic moment came in the second quarter of a close contest against the Seattle Storm. At the point where the Indiana Fever trailed slightly after a high-scoring first quarter (27-24).
The milestone arrives just two days after Boston’s dominant 26-point, 10-rebound double-double against the Las Vegas Aces, which was her sixth of the 2025 season. At just 23 years old, the Fever’s star forward continues to cement her place among the league’s elite.
Since being selected No. 1 overall in the 2023 WNBA Draft, Boston has done nothing but deliver. She was named Rookie of the Year and has earned back-to-back All-Star selections. However, she has also led the league in field goal percentage during her debut season.
Before taking her talents to Indiana, she was a collegiate powerhouse at South Carolina. She captured an NCAA championship, the Naismith, Wooden, Wade, and Defensive Player of the Year awards. She was also named NCAA Tournament MOP in 2022.
Boston entered Tuesday night’s matchup averaging 14.7 points, 8.2 rebounds, 3.8 assists, and 1.5 blocks per game. With stats like those, her third consecutive All-Star nod seems all but guaranteed.
Looking Ahead for the Fever
The Fever came into the matchup off two tough losses on the West Coast against the Golden State Valkyries and the Las Vegas Aces. Despite the setbacks, Boston’s consistency and leadership offer a solid foundation for a young Fever team looking to turn things around.
The next stretch presents a golden opportunity for Indiana to bounce back, with games against the struggling Los Angeles Sparks (4-11) and Dallas Wings (4-12) on the schedule. If Boston keeps up her current pace, don’t be surprised to see more milestones falling soon.
