Aliyah Boston Warns Indiana Fever Ahead Of Game 5
The emphatic win by the Indiana Fever once again proved their resilience and ability to overcome the harsh conditions. While spectators in the arena cheered for the win at home, the 2023 rookie stayed grounded and had a message for her teammates ahead of game 5.
ESPN’s Holly Rowe asked the Fever forward for her takeaways from Game 4 and how they will prepare for Game 5 after the win in the on-court interview.
“This and more. I mean, just looking at the end of the game, we can’t really have that, especially against a team that has experience in winning championships. So for us, just going back, looking at the film, seeing what we can clean up,” Boston said.
"This opportunity for us to play in front of our home crowd, our fans were great. Everyone showed out."
