Aliyah Boston Tops WNBA Salaries, Beats A'ja Wilson

0:00On April 19th, AJ Wilson just inked the biggest deal in WNBA history with the Las Vegas aces earlier this week. But hold up, Alia Boston, another former South Carolina gamecock, topped it right away with a super max contract from the Indiana fever. This puts her ahead as the least highest paid player heading into her fourth season. Boston's been a rock for the fever since they drafted her in 2023. As past season, she averaged 15 points, 8.2 rebounds, 3.7 assists, and 1.2 steals per game. She shot over 53% from the floor and hit career highs across the board. Fans in the team are hyped about locking her in long-term. The fever called her a cornerstone who's just getting started after she landed top 10 in MVP voting, all WNBA honors, and all defensive team nods. Boston hit back on social media, with a simple tweet, God is great, let's go. Now Boston and Wilson stand as the two highest paid stars in WNBA history.
