LOS ANGELES — Aliyah Boston, who was questionable with a right lower leg injury, will not play on Wednesday night against the Los Angeles Sparks, Indiana Fever coach Stephanie White said at shootaround.
Caitlin Clark, who was probable with a back injury, will play. The game against Los Angeles is the first of a travel back-to-back, and the two will "flip flop," White said, for Thursday's game against Phoenix — Boston will be available, Clark will be out.
Boston popped up on the injury report Tuesday afternoon following the Fever's practice. She has been managing a right lower leg injury since February, when she first got injured in Unrivaled. She missed the Unrivaled playoffs, the FIBA World Cup qualifiers in March, and the Fever's first two preseason games as she recovered. She also missed Indiana's regular-season game against Seattle on May 17.

Clark has been working through back issues all season, as well. She missed the Fever's game against Portland on May 20 and has mostly been listed as probable (back) since then. She has missed the Fever's last two games and left their game June 24 against Phoenix in the third quarter after two hard fouls in the second; she got up rubbing her back after a landing **** e foul that wasn't upgraded, and Alyssa Thomas put a fist to her throat in a skirmish that was not called at all on the floor.
