How Will Iowa’s Caitlin Clark Break the Division One Scoring Record Tonight? Player Milestone Bet

Caitlin Clark has dazzled and captivated the basketball world this season, routinely selling out venues regardless of where the Iowa Hawkeyes are playing. Headed into tonight's game against the Michigan Wolverines, Clark is 8 points away from breaking Kelsey Plum's Division One scoring record.
While the conversation should start and center around how amazing an accomplishment this is, the question remains: How will she score her 3,528th point that sets the new record?
Per DraftKings Sportsbook, you can wager on how she'll break the record.
Method to break scoring record | odds |
---|---|
Three point field goal | -125 |
Two point field goal | +180 |
Free throw attempt | +450 |
I cannot express enough that I feel the free throw opportunity is perhaps the best value bet you may find anywhere today. Clark is oft thought of for her shooting range, and understandably, but her command of the basketball and a defense's attention while driving stands out.
No player has attempted more free throws in the Big Ten this season. Clark is 4th in the country in free attempts as well.
Michigan's defense has one of the lower foul rates in the Big Ten, but I feel they could be ripe for a game where they get baited into fouls. The Wolverines play with a lot of strength and physicality on defense, working to prevent and deter interior touches. That could wind up a double-edged sword facing Clark, a significant three level threat.
For her career, Clark averages 7.2 free throws per game against Michigan, slightly above her average free throw rate in Big Ten play.
A +450 bet is incredibly worthwhile and under the radar.
You can watch the game live tonight streaming on Peacock at 8 pm EST.
