Aliyah Boston and Candace Parker Rank 2026's Wildest Moments

Aliyah Boston and Candace Parker sat down on Episode 54 of Post Moves to rank Boston’s five most viral moments of the 2026 WNBA season.

Parker expected pushback before they even started.

“In honor of the season ending, we are going to rank your best memes of the season,” Parker said.

“So the AB memes have also been our favorite, I’ll be honest.

And so let’s rank these top five moments.

And everyone, listen, we would love your help ranking them if you think I’m wrong, which I know people are going to think that because it’s the internet.”

The list ran from a thumbs-down at a referee to a stare-down with a Las Vegas Aces player.

Boston still disagrees with the call that started it all.

“Oh, I felt that one,” Boston said.

“It was not a good call, I felt like.”

But she also revealed something about that moment that changes how you see it.

“Yeah, but my girl Catherine, she was smiling,” Boston continued.

“So like, you know, that’s why I probably didn’t get in trouble for it.”

Her complaints about officials weren’t limited to that clip.

After a 90-88 loss at Chase Center on May 28, a game she played in foul trouble, Boston gave the Valkyries a “shoutout” for “selling it.”

Boston had her own pick for No. 1, and it wasn’t the referee.

“Oh, this one will always probably be number one because Liz overly played,” Boston explained.

“I did not even hit her like that.

For her neck to get thrown all the way back, though, she played.”

The Aces player in the stare-down clip is Elizabeth Kitley, who Boston believes exaggerated the contact.

Las Vegas ended Indiana’s season in three games.

The Fever’s lone win, 99-89, came Sept. 29 at Gainbridge Fieldhouse, two nights after a 102-85 loss in Las Vegas.

The Aces took Game 3 by 11 on Oct. 1.

Boston averaged 19.7 points in the series.

Boston made her fourth All-Star team in 2026.

“I just really love because I know you, people know you, but these memes are a microcosm of you,” Parker explained.

“And it gives me so much joy.”

“I can’t help it,” Boston said.

“I can’t help it.

Like, I can’t help it.

Sometimes it just comes out.”

On June 4 against Atlanta, Boston went 3-of-4 from 3-point range and scored 19 points.

She had averaged 0.2 made 3s per game for her career before this year.

The corner 3 led Parker into trash talk.

“I love when you talk [trash],” Parker said.

“But I try not to,” Boston said.

The full ranking went as follows: No. 1, the referee thumbs-down.

No. 2, the corner three-pointer.

No. 3, the stare-down with the Aces player.

No. 4, Boston’s “You guys like my cup?” clip.

No. 5, a bench celebration with Caitlin Clark.

But the viral moment ranking was not the only revelation on Post Moves that day.

Boston also opened up about something far more serious.

She revealed she underwent surgery last month to address a lateral meniscus tear in her right knee.

At just 24, Boston called this her first procedure of any kind.

That unfamiliarity turned even basic tasks into a challenge.

“I’m a do-it-myself person,” she said.

“So I was yelled at a lot because they were, like, ‘You can’t.’”

She also described a particularly frustrating part of the process.

“Keeping a leg out of the shower so the stitches don’t get wet,” she said.

“What do you want me to do?

I enjoy my showers.”

The four-time WNBA All-Star dealt with the meniscus issue throughout the 2026 WNBA season.

Despite that, she managed to suit up for all but four of the Fever’s 44 regular-season games.

She posted 16.1 points and eight rebounds per game before representing Team USA in its gold-medal World Cup run.

But that workload caught up with her in the postseason.

Boston recently confirmed she would sit out the 2027 Unrivaled season to prioritize a full recovery.
