The Indiana Fever standout Caitlin Clark had a vision. Long before she even played her first WNBA game, she predicted that teaming up with Aliyah Boston on the Indiana Fever would be a dream scenario. Now, just weeks ahead of the 2025 WNBA Draft, that statement is resurfacing—thanks to a viral video shared by the WNBA on X on March 23.
And as it turns out, Clark wasn’t just talking—she was foreshadowing greatness.
Caitlin Clark Made Bold Prediction That’s Aged Perfectly
At the time of 2024 WNBA Draft, Clark didn’t just express excitement about joining the Fever—she specifically highlighted what she would bring to the team – her extraordinary passing skills above anything else.
“I think the biggest thing is definitely my passing, I think that at times it is overlooked in my game. I think the scoring and the longshot is what everybody is in love with… but obviously going to an organization that has, in my eyes, one of the best post players in the entire world—my point guard eyes just light up at that. Obviously, Aliyah has been one of my teammates before, so I am excited, I can’t wait. ”

Clark didn’t just say it—she backed it up with record-breaking performances. In her rookie season, she set the WNBA single-season assist record with 321 assists, surpassing Alyssa Thomas’ previous mark of 316 against Las Vegas Aces on Friday, September 13, 2024.
She also broke the record for most assists in a single game (19), previously set by Courtney Vandersloot (18), proving that her elite passing wasn’t just talk.
And her chemistry with Boston? It’s been steadily growing.
Before they even became Fever teammates, Clark and Boston had already shared the court. The two played together for Team USA in the 2019 FIBA U19 Women’s Basketball World Cup, where they won gold. One of the most memorable moments? Clark feeding Boston a clutch assist in a nail-biting 74-70 overtime win against Australia.
Boston, a dominant force in the paint, was the No. 1 pick in the 2023 WNBA Draft, while Clark went first overall a year later. Together, they helped the Fever return to the playoffs for the first time in eight years, proving Clark’s prediction was spot on.
Clark and Boston’s Partnership Took Time to Develop
Even with Clark’s passing skills and Boston’s dominance inside, the duo had to work through early-season struggles. The Fever had a brutal start to the 2024 campaign, playing 11 games in just 20 days. The relentless schedule, combined with their unfamiliarity on the court together, led to a rocky 2–8 start in their first 10 games.
Clark acknowledged the growing pains but remained confident in their potential:
“Me and Aliyah are just trying to learn on the fly, get to know each other on the fly. I think you’ve already seen a lot of improvement, especially out of the pick-and-roll. It’s hard; I think I saw something where I’ve been blitzed on ball screens more than any other team has been blitzed combined, so everyone is trying to learn out of that.”

Despite the challenges, Clark and Boston delivered on their promise—leading Indiana back to the playoffs for the first time since 2016.
With another draft class about to enter the league, Clark’s resurfaced statement is a reminder that some players don’t just predict success—they make it happen. She believed her passing ability would be a game-changer, and she rewrote the WNBA record books to prove it.
