Las Vegas Aces guard Kelsey Plum and Indiana Fever center Aliyah Boston are two of the more prolific stars in the WNBA. But aside from their genius on the hardwood, they are also smart and articulate ladies. Both have been part of the broadcast booth as game analysts, with Plum doing it with the Pac-12 Network in 2020 and Boston joining this year’s coverage of the NCAA Women’s Tournament. Now, they will also lend their voice to a more unique platform. According to a report from Variety’s Selena Kuznikov, Plum and Boston were signed by audio company Audity, along with renowned Olympic skier Mikaela Shiffrin, for an experiential project called “Coach.” “‘Coach’ is currently in development in collaboration with the athletes and will serve as an experiential brand that offers listeners access to a selection of customized coaching audio content,” wrote Kuznikov. The report added that the “audio experience” will offer “personal insights and motivation from elite athletes.”
There are many young fans of Plum, 30, and Boston, 22, and it would be beneficial to impart their knowledge and winning mentality to them in order to help them develop into stronger athletes.
Boston won a national championship with South Carolina in 2022, and Plum recently won a gold medal with Team USA at the Olympics in Paris.
Plum, who also has two rings with the Aces, stated in the report, “I’m excited to interact with people in such a personal way and help them unleash their inner champion.”
While they make their last push before the playoffs, Plum and Boston will continue to lead their respective teams. With an 18-11 record as of this writing, the Aces are in fourth place, and the Fever are in seventh place with a 14-16 card.
