When you’re dating WNBA superstar Aliyah Boston, the bar is already sky-high. But Tre-Vaughn Minott isn’t here to play second fiddle. Nope, he’s got his own plans, and they involve dunking on the court and the music charts.
Minott, the 6’9” Portland State Vikings center and part-time musical maven, recently turned Instagram into his personal highlight reel with a hoops-inspired post that screamed, “I’m just warming up!” The dump wasn’t just about basketball—it came with a bold proclamation of his latest musical venture under the name “TELLAVISIoN.”
In the post, Minott shared snapshots of his dual life: one moment, he’s sweating it out during practice, earbuds firmly planted, basketball in hand. The next, he’s channeling his inner rockstar, decked out in an all-black ensemble, serving looks that could melt a shot clock. He capped it off with some high-flying dunks because, well, why not?
But the real slam dunk here? His caption:
“I’m Just Warming Up…2025, Tell The VISIoN👁️ NylOn & Mi dOg out NOW on ALL platforms!”
Talk about confidence. Most people start the year with resolutions to “hit the gym” or “drink more water.” Minott? He’s hitting beats and buckets.
The Minott Show: Must-See TV
Even his teammates are getting in on the hype. After a thunderous dunk against the Denver Pioneers in December, the Vikings’ official Instagram dubbed him “Must See TV 📺.” And while the Vikings narrowly lost that game 68-67, Minott showed up big, tallying eight points, eight rebounds, and four blocks.
Sure, his season averages of 6.0 points and 5.4 rebounds might not scream “MVP,” but let’s cut the guy some slack—he’s clearly multitasking. One minute he’s swatting shots in the paint, the next he’s dropping tracks on Apple Music.
Aliyah Boston: From 3×3 Courts to Courtside Cheers
Meanwhile, Aliyah Boston is busy being, well, Aliyah Boston. The 2023 WNBA Rookie of the Year is preparing to dazzle in the inaugural season of Napheesa Collier and Breanna Stewart’s 3×3 basketball league, Unrivaled. Boston will team up with fellow WNBA stars like Arike Ogunbowale and Dearica Hamby to represent Vinyl Basketball Club.
You have to wonder: when these two catch up, is it all hoops talk, or do they swap playlists too? Minott’s genre-bending beats meet Boston’s championship mindset—sounds like a power couple ready to take over the world.
The Real MVP: Swagger
While some might dismiss Minott’s music as a side hustle, his energy says otherwise. From his swagger on the court to his self-proclaimed title as TELLAVISIoN, this is a guy who believes in his vision—pun absolutely intended.
As for his music? It’s out now on all platforms. Whether it tops the charts or not, one thing’s clear: Tre-Vaughn Minott isn’t just warming up. He’s on a full-court press to carve his own legacy, both on and off the hardwood.
