In the meantime, Boston is enjoying the WNBA off-season, but she isn't slowing down.

"I am super excited," said Boston. "I thank God I went to school, and that was my major. I'm really excited for it. It's something that I've wanted to do, to continue to be able to stay with the sport even when I'm not exactly playing. To be able to talk about it, there's nothing better than that."
