But before the ball even tipped off, Boston had already stolen the spotlight.
Rapper Plies, a longtime supporter of women’s basketball and a diehard South Carolina Gamecocks fan, surprised Boston with a diamond necklace right on the court. Boston, a former Gamecock herself, was visibly shocked and touched as Plies helped her put on the sparkling gift.
