Today is March 2, 2026, and the buzz in Medley is all about the latest developments in the Unrivaled Postseason. The Phantom BC, top-seed team, is facing a significant setback as they will be without their star player, Aliyah Boston. Boston has been sidelined due to an injury in her right lower extremities and will miss the remainder of the postseason. This is a tough blow for Phantom, especially considering her stellar performance throughout the season.
Aliyah Boston was a powerhouse on the court, averaging 18.9 points, 9.7 rebounds, and 2.1 blocks per game. Not only did she earn the title of Defensive Player of the Year in the 3-on-3 league, but she also helped lead Phantom to the top seed in the playoffs. In addition to her impressive accolades, she was named the WNBA Rookie of the Year in 2023, solidifying her status as a rising star in women’s basketball. Phantom has a bye for their semifinal game against the No. 6 seed Vinyl, which is set to take place on Monday in New York.
Changes in the Lineup
Unfortunately, Phantom will also be without Dana Evans, who has played only one game this season due to her own issues. In their absence, Aziaha James and Makayla Timpson will step up to fill the void. This shift in lineup will require the team to adapt quickly as they prepare for the big semifinal match-up.
Adding to the excitement, Aliyah Boston has been selected for the U.S. Women’s National Team, which is gearing up for the FIBA World Championship Qualifiers later this month in Puerto Rico. The American team will hold a training camp in Miami next weekend, bringing together some of the best talents in women’s basketball.
What’s Next for Phantom BC?
As Phantom BC navigates these challenges, fans are left wondering how the team will perform without their key players. The coaching staff will need to rally the squad and instill confidence in the new lineup as they head into the semifinals. With the right adjustments and teamwork, Phantom could still make a strong showing in the playoffs despite these setbacks.
