The Indiana Fever vs. the rest of the league has been a scene in the WNBA since 2024. The Fever fanbase put the franchise in the spotlight, and a key reason for it was the addition of Caitlin Clark. But it also sparked another rumor about the locker room drama within the Fever organization. But Aliyah Boston cleared the ‘misconception’.
Earlier in the season, Boston revealed how Caitlin Clark’s presence transforms the Indiana Fever’s game plan, and now mentioned how the team chemistry is fine.
Aliyah Boston Denies Any Rift In Indiana Fever Locker Room
When the Fever selected Caitlin Clark as the first overall pick in 2024, many wished to see them thrive from the first game. But when it didn’t happen, there were rumors about a rift within the locker room. The first waves of rumors began in September 2024, when Sheryl Swoopes sparked the controversy during her appearance on the Gil’s Arena podcast.

Fast-forward to 2025. The core of the team remained constant while management added more star power during the offseason, which should have escalated the locker room issues. But as the 2023 rookie noted, the situation is completely different.
“I hate when people get into this, talking about what they think our locker room is like. I’m like, first of all, you’re not in here. So you have no idea. And also, we’re professionals. So if we want you to see something, you’ll happily see it. If you don’t, I guarantee you, you would never know there’s a single problem. Why? Because that’s none of your business,” Boston said in the podcast.

Aliyah Boston Revealed Her First Interaction With Caitlin Clark
Even though the star mentioned that there was no rift within the locker room, AB mentioned how she felt when CC joined the Indiana Fever. Both players played against each other during their collegiate years, with Clark playing for the Iowa Hawkeyes and Boston playing for South Carolina.
“It’s always weird when you’re used to competing against someone. That year, we were doing something and I was like, ‘Caitlin, I just want to say, I’m really upset that you did what you did in that Final Four game,'” Boston said.
Boston is referring to the 2023 Final Four when Clark scored 41 points and provided eight assists to beat the Gamerocks in semifinal. Now both players are now key figures in the Fever locker room, with Boston even gushing over fans’ special poster for the duo. Their partnership has been major success mantra for the side.
