Aliyah Boston Undergoes Right-Knee Meniscus Surgery

The Indiana Fever said the procedure is complete but declined to give a recovery timetable, leaving her availability for the 2027 season unclear.

Overview

  • The Fever announced that Boston had arthroscopic surgery to repair a lateral meniscus in her right knee, with the team saying the procedure took place after the club’s season ended.
  • Team statements and reporting identify Dr. Corey Kendall at OrthoIndy as the surgeon and say Boston will begin rehabilitation with the Fever’s medical and performance staff.
  • Boston delivered a career-best 2026 season, averaging 16.1 points and 8.0 rebounds and earning her fourth straight All-Star selection.
  • Sources say Boston played through a nagging right-knee issue during the Fever’s three-game playoff series loss to the Las Vegas Aces before undergoing the repair.
  • The Fever gave no timeline for her return, which leaves questions about frontcourt depth and Boston’s availability for early 2027 competitions such as Unrivaled.
