Given a box and whisker plot, how do I highlight a particular data point along that graph? Ideally I would like the user to select the name of the data point then it stands out from the rest. Perhaps it becomes a bigger dot or maybe a larger icon.

Hi @Vyk ,
Your demand is a good idea, while it is not supported to highlight individual data points in a box and whisker plot as you request in Power BI currently. You can post your new idea here https://ideas.powerbi.com/forums/265200-power-bi-ideas , to improve the Power BI.
It is a place for customers provide feedback about Microsoft Office products . What’s more, if a feedback is high voted there by other customers, it will be promising that Microsoft Product Team will take it into consideration when designing the next version in the future.
To work around the issue, I will suggest you investigate the Tooltips feature. See: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/power-bi/desktop-custom-tooltips . You can put one or more measure onto Tooltips. For example one measure like below, when you hover the data point you will see the information displayed. It's a pretty good experience.
=IF(HASONEVALUE(table[column]),VALUES(table[column]))
