Indiana Fever Make Aliyah Boston Request on Friday
Indiana Fever Make Aliyah Boston Request on Friday originally appeared on Athlon Sports.
Caitlin Clark has been the epicenter of the Indiana Fever's success this season. The 23-year-old is in the midst of another strong campaign, which has her heading into the WNBA All-Star weekend as the top vote-getter from the fans.

However, there's no denying that Clark has gotten a lot of help from her teammates this season. Third-year forward Aliyah Boston has also been balling out for Indiana, and she, too, has been pivotal to this team in their first 12 games of the campaign.
Boston is currently averaging 13.8 points on 59.8% shooting, 8.1 rebounds, 3.9 assists and 1.7 blocks in 29.1 minutes per game. The Fever are hoping that this is enough to send the 6-foot-5 forward-center to her third straight All-Star Game.
The team took to social media on Friday to urge supporters to vote for Boston for the upcoming All-Star Game in Indianapolis on July 19.
"Aliyah Boston, everyone 😄 your vote counts DOUBLE today, send AB to #WNBAAllStar2025" the Fever posted on Instagram.

The good news for Indiana supporters is that Boston appears to be well on her way to the big game. The Fever also revealed on Friday that the former Rookie of the Year is currently third in the first round of fan returns with 446,961 votes.
It is also worth noting that, unsurprisingly, it's Clark who sits atop the list with 515,993 votes. Kelsey Mitchell (277,438) and Lexie Hull (217,438) are the two other Fever players who are in the Top 10.

Despite Boston's current standing, however, Fever fans can't afford to relax and let off. This is exactly why Indiana is requesting that supporters continue to vote for Boston and make sure that the former South Carolina star gets the recognition she deserves this season.

PSG vs Inter Miami Live Stream – A Guide About Paris Saint-Germain's Next Club World Cup Match
Paris Saint-Germain is in the Round of 16 of the FIFA Club World Cup and will go up against Lionel Messi and Inter Miami in the knockout stage. Paris Saint-Germain topped Group B in the FIFA Club World Cup and will now play Inter Miami in the Mercedes-Benz Stadium in Atlanta, Georgia. The Round of 16 matchup is highly anticipated as Lionel Messi leads the Major League Soccer side against his former club. Advertisement Watch PSG vs Inter Miami for FREE with DAZN on any device! Paris Saint-Germain defeated Atlético Madrid and Seattle Sounders in the group stage to set up this intriguing matchup with Inter Miami. PSG are not invincible, however, as they also lost 1-0 to Botafogo in the group stage. Inter Miami finished second in their group but did manage to defeat Porto and draw against Palmeiras. A win for Inter Miami would easily be one of the biggest in club history and for PSG, an embarrassment coming off their UEFA Champions League title run. How to Watch PSG vs Inter MiamiAll eyes will be on this matchup between PSG and Inter Miami. PSG's manager, Luis Enrique, has named a high-quality starting lineup with Gianluigi Donnarumma in goal, Achraf Hakimi and Nuno Mendes at full-back, Willian Pacho and Marquinhos at center-back, Fabian Ruiz, João Neves, and Vitinha in midfield, and up front, Khvicha Kvaratskhelia, Désiré Doué, and Bradley Barcola. Ousmane Dembélé, the frontrunner for the Ballon d'Or, starts on the bench. Advertisement For those who couldn't make it to Atlanta for the match, the best way to watch PSG at the Club World Cup is DAZN. The quality of the coverage has been world-class, and you won't want to miss a second of the action. Once you're streaming with DAZN, you'll be able to not only watch PSG vs. Inter Miami, but all of the knockout stage matches of the Club World Cup. How Motivated Will Messi Be Against PSG? Messi played two seasons at PSG, and despite winning domestic trophies, Les Parisiens failed to get past the Round of 16 of the Champions League with arguably the best player of all time. Since leaving PSG, Messi has stated that he wasn't happy in the French capital, which could explain the lackluster results in the Champions League. There was also a situation where Messi skipped a training session and was forced to post an apology video. There could be some resentment from Messi and PSG heading into this matchup, which only adds to the excitement leading up to kickoff.

LeBron James formally opts in for a 23rd season, will make $52.6M in 2025-26, AP source says

(AP Photo/Mark J. Terrill, File) LeBron James is exercising his $52.6 million option with the Los Angeles Lakers for 2025-26, further confirming that he will become the first player in NBA history to play a 23rd season, a person with knowledge of the decision said Sunday. The person spoke to The Associated Press on condition of anonymity because neither James nor the team announced the decision publicly. Advertisement ESPN and The Athletic were among those to first report the decision. James, who recently returned to on-court workouts after taking several weeks to recover after spraining a knee ligament in the Lakers' final game of this past season's playoffs, told the AP earlier this month that he expected to be ready for training camp. That was an obvious sign he planned on returning for a 23rd year, one in which he'll break a tie with Vince Carter for longest NBA career by a player. 'I have a lot of time to take care of my injury, my knee, the rest of my body and make sure I'm as close to 100% as possible when training camp begins in late September,' James said in that interview. If any doubt existed even after that about James, the NBA's oldest current player, coming back for at least one more season, it's gone now. He had until Sunday afternoon to make his decision on the option, one that pushes his career on-court earnings to about $580 million. Advertisement This coming season will be his first full year with Luka Doncic as a teammate. Doncic was traded to the Lakers from Dallas in February, but the team — which entered the postseason as the No. 3 seed in a loaded Western Conference — still fell in Round 1 to Minnesota. James turns 41 in December. He's been an All-NBA pick in 21 of his 22 seasons in the league, including a second-round nod this past season. No other player has more than 15 All-NBA selections. He averaged 24.4 points, 7.8 rebounds and 8.2 assists this past season. The NBA's all-time scoring leader has appeared in 1,562 regular-season games, 49 behind Robert Parish's mark of 1,611 — the most in league history. If healthy, James would obviously figure to break that mark this coming season. ___ AP NBA:

Real Madrid vs Juventus: Prediction, kick-off time, TV, live stream, team news, h2h results, odds
Two European titans will get their Club World Cup knockout campaigns underway on Tuesday as Real Madrid face Juventus in the round of 16. Los Blancos have so far been largely uninhibited as they moved through the summer competition, only dropping points in a draw with Al Hilal as they topped their group. Advertisement They produced a statement win over RB Salzburg in their third group stage outing, cruising to a 3-0 triumph in a dominant performance. Things have not been so straightforward for the Bianconeri. It had all seemed to be going to plan as they opened the competition with a 5-0 win over Al Ain and a 4-1 defeat of Wydad AC, but they were humbled by Man City in their group stage closer, shipping five. They will now face comfortably their toughest test of the season as they look to bounce back from that crushing defeat and square up to one of the tournament favourites. Date, kick-off time and venue Real Madrid vs Juventus is scheduled for an 8pm BST kick-off on Tuesday, July 1, 2025. Advertisement The match will take place at Hard Rock Stadium in Miami, Florida. Where to watch Real Madrid vs Juventus Live stream: Viewers can watch the action live online via the DAZN website, which is free with a registration. Coverage will begin from 7pm BST ahead of an 8pm kickoff. DAZN is the global broadcaster of the new-look Club World Cup and will show all 63 matches of the competition. No subscription is required to watch the game, with the entire tournament available to their 'Freemium' members, which means you only need to sign up for a free DAZN account. Live blog: Follow all the action right here with Standard Sport's live blog! Real Madrid vs Juventus team news According to reports in the Italian press, Kylian Mbappe is due to start after recovering from a nasty bout of gastroenteritis, for which he was hospitalised ahead of Los Blancos' tournament opener. Advertisement Gonzalo Garcia proved a capable understudy, but seems set to return to the bench. One would expect few changes to the Real Madrid lineup, which has been largely unchanged throughout the group stage, though Arda Guler's involvement could be in question after he was hooked early against Salzburg. There will be more upheaval in the Juventus camp, though, after Igor Tudor came under fire for his selection in the City defeat. His star forwards, Kenan Yildiz and Francisco Conceicao, were both left on the bench, with Kephren Thuram and Andrea Cambiaso left out. They should all be set to return on Tuesday, though, as Tudor will surely come out with all guns blazing. Real Madrid vs Juventus prediction Heading into this tie, Juventus will be looking to get their own back. Last week's loss to Man City was many things, but chiefly it was profoundly demoralising. There is no rest for the weary, though, with Real Madrid right around the corner. Advertisement Juventus could not cope with City's tight, tricky passing and free-flowing attacks in that tie, and, unfortunately, that is exactly what Real Madrid are good at. Due to face Vinicius Jr, Jude Bellingham, Luka Modric, and Kylian Mbappe, the task will not be much easier. The Bianconeri have their work cut out for them. If nothing else, they must look to avoid embarrassment. Real Madrid to win, 2-1 Head to head (h2h) history and results This will be the first meeting between Real Madrid and Juventus since 2017-18, when Los Blancos knocked the Bianconeri out in the Champions League quarter finals despite losing the second leg 3-1. Real Madrid wins: 11 Juventus wins: 8 Draws: 2 Real Madrid vs Juventus match odds Real Madrid to win: 4/7 Juventus to win: 7/2 Draw: 23/10 Odds via Betfair (subject to change).
