The 21-year-old recently weighed in on student-athletes now securing NIL deals. She believes it helps give more exposure to the sport as a whole.
“Everything that’s happening is to grow the game,” Boston said. “I just think no matter how it goes, I just think it’s all just to grow the game.”
Before joining the WNBA, she was ranked 12 in college women’s basketball NIL rankings. Boston had a valuation of $116K, according to On3, which she could secure through brand deals with Dick’s Sporting Goods, Buick and more.
