WNBA Fans had mixed reactions after a ringside clip of Kelsey Plum talking about Aliyah Boston started spreading across social media.
@ShowCaseShabazz shared the video with the caption, “LMAOOOO son.” In the clip, Plum was asked how she felt playing with Boston. Laughing, she answered, “I’ve been complaining about moving screens, but here we are.”

WNBA Fans didn’t take long to jump in.
Some treated it as harmless humor. Others said the line felt awkward, especially given how often Boston has been discussed for her physical play style.
@dtha_goat backed Plum’s comment, writing, “Love AB, but KP ain’t lie one bit [face with tears of joy emoji] and to the people mad at KP, get your panties out ya ass lol.”
The reply was widely shared among WNBA Fans who felt the clip was being taken too seriously.
Another user leaned into the joke.
@fork_king added, “AB hilarious she knows we can see her right.” That line also traveled fast, with WNBA Fans quoting it while reposting the clip.
As replies grew, WNBA Fans split into two clear groups. One side laughed it off as player-to-player humor. The other side said it came off strange and unnecessary, especially in a public interview setting.
Several WNBA Fans pointed out that Plum and Boston are both known for being candid, and moments like this tend to land differently depending on who’s watching. Some saw chemistry. Others saw a soundbite that invited jokes.
What most WNBA Fans agreed on was how quickly the clip took on a life of its own. A few seconds of laughter turned into dozens of quote posts, screenshots, and side arguments.
For many WNBA Fans, the moment wasn’t just about what Plum said. It was about how easily one line can turn into a full debate.
And judging by how fast the clip spread, WNBA Fans don’t expect the conversation to cool off anytime soon.

The post quickly picked up attention from WNBA Fans, many of whom used it to change the tone of the conversation.
@WNBAlouvre replied, “And the not moving screens were amazing.” The comment was seen by WNBA Fans as a playful callback to Kelsey Plum’s earlier quote, tying the performance directly into the viral interview moment.
Another reply focused more on the bigger picture.
@FeverBandwagon wrote, “And that’s the future of the Fever. [exhaling face emoji].” That message gained traction among WNBA Fans who wanted to highlight what Boston represents going forward.
Across the replies, WNBA Fans leaned more supportive. Many pointed out that whatever jokes were floating around earlier, Boston’s impact was still front and center.
Several WNBA Fans said the stat line made the earlier debate feel small. Others joked that performances like this are the fastest way to quiet any noise.
The post became a place where WNBA Fans shared highlights, reactions, and praise instead of arguments. Some even reposted the ringside clip again, this time pairing it with Boston’s numbers.
For WNBA Fans, the contrast was clear. One moment produced laughs and side comments. The next brought focus back to results.
And as more Unrivaled games roll on, WNBA Fans continue to show how quickly narratives can shift, sometimes in the span of just a few posts.
