Positive affirmations can go a long way, even for the league’s best players.
Take Caitlin Clark and Aliyah Boston for example. They each earned All-Star nods this season as Indiana is on pace to make the playoffs for the first time since 2016.
All throughout, the two No. 1 picks have kept up a pregame routine predicated on a supportive statement. It’s the same phrase each night, making for a consistent start to each game.
The two Fever All-Stars have built a strong bond over the course of their first season together, and this is just another aspect of their relationship.
Here’s a closer look at what Clark and Boston tell each other before each contest.

Clark and Boston tell each other they are “amazing” before each game.
A microphone picked up the moment while the two were sitting on the bench pregame.
“You’re going to be amazing because you are amazing,” Clark told Boston.
“Because you ARE amazing.”
