2024 Fantasy Outlook
The 2023 No. 1 overall pick was the first unanimous Rookie of the Year since 2002. Boston started all 40 games last year, averaging 14.5 points, 8.4 rebounds, 2.2 assists, 1.3 steals and 1.3 blocks in 31.2 minutes. She formed a strong frontcourt duo with NaLyssa Smith in 2023, and that should continue in 2024, though the expected impending arrival of Caitlin Clark is going to shake things up. Clark’s style of play should instantly make Indiana’s offense better and create easier looks for Boston and Smith, but there’s a concern about a drop in usage for the frontcourt duo given Clark’s ball-dominant style. However, fantasy managers don’t need to worry about that too much, as Boston was able to finish as a top-10 fantasy player as a rookie despite attempting only 10.1 shots per game. She shot 57.8 percent from the field and 40.0 percent from deep (0.3 attempts per game), so an increase in efficiency will be difficult, but the Fever’s offense, which finished in the middle of the league in 2023, is trending toward being a dominant unit in 2024. While Boston’s overall scoring numbers may stagnate or take a hit, she does enough in other categories, especially defensively, to be a top-tier fantasy option in 2024. Read Past Outlooks

Boston was the No. 1 overall pick in the 2023 WNBA Draft and impressed during her first professional season, leading her to become the first unanimous Rookie of the Year since 2002. She started in all 40 games this year and was a consistent threat to post double-doubles, averaging 14.5 points, 8.4 rebounds, 2.2 assists, 1.3 steals and 1.3 blocks in 31.2 minutes per game. She should continue to form a potent frontcourt tandem with NaLyssa Smith in 2024.

2023 Fantasy Outlook
The clear-cut No. 1 prospect in the 2023 WNBA Draft, it was no shock to anyone that Boston's name was the first off the board. Boston upgrades the interior presence for Indiana, notching 2.0 blocks per game or more in each of her four seasons at South Carolina and sporting rebounding numbers among the best in the country as well. In addition to her defensive prowess, Boston has the skill to score both around the rim and in the midrange. There's little doubt the Fever will afford the rookie plenty of playing time alongside NaLyssa Smith in the frontcourt, likely at the expense of some of Queen Egbo's minutes, among others.
