Leg 1: Caitlin Clark OVER 3.5 Made Threes (-178)

• The WNBA is a step up from the collegiate ranks, but we’re not expecting Caitlin Clark to stray away from what’s made her an icon. 
• In her final year at Iowa, Clark averaged 5.2 made three-pointers per game. 
• With the spotlight on Clark during her debut, we expect her to shoot early and often. The Sun are a good team, so Clark must find her scoring touch from beyond the arc to keep this close. 
• We’re riding with Clark to tally at least four made threes in her WNBA debut, even with some sizeable juice on the number at -178. 

Leg 2: Caitlin Clark to Score 20+ Points (-182) 

• Although the Fever boasts multiple players who averaged over 12 points per game last season, Clark will be a focal point for this offense and their top option. 
• Clark suited up for two preseason games for the Fever, tallying 21 and 12 points. 
• Clark averaged 31.6 points per game during her final year at Iowa. 
• Even if the jump to the WNBA doesn’t allow her to light up the league right off the hop, we’re still of the belief that Clark is a strong enough shooter with volume to surpass the 20-point plateau in her regular season debut.

Leg 3: Caitlin Clark to Record 6+ Assists (-325) 

• Clark is known for being a sharpshooter, but that doesn’t mean we shouldn’t consider her playmaking skills in this opening game parlay. 
• With Clark controlling the offense and the ball in her hands consistently, we expect her assist numbers to pop in her rookie season.
• In Year 4 at Iowa, Clark averaged 8.9 assists per game. 
• Sportsbooks are expecting Clark to move the ball around in her debut, leading to a juiced-up price of -325 for her to record six or more assists. 
• Although that number isn’t significant as a standalone option, we’re very content using it as a final leg to close out our three-leg parlay for Clark’s WNBA debut.
