LAS VEGAS (AP) — Caitlin Clark’s much-anticipated WNBA debut produced record betting, far larger than the amount of money wagered on last year’s clinching game for the league championship.
Betting was six times higher at Caesars Sportsbook on the Indiana Fever’s 92-71 loss to the Connecticut Sun on Tuesday night than Game 4 of the Las Vegas Aces’ victory over the New York Liberty last season.
Clark’s first regular-season game for the Fever also was the most-bet game at Caesars over any WNBA game last season.
Wagering on that game helped propel betting on the league overall, with the number of tickets up 516% at Caesars over last year’s opening night and the amount of money up 84%.
“With the huge influx of talent in this year’s WNBA draft adding to an already loaded wealth of veteran players, this year’s WNBA handle will eclipse anything we have seen before,” said Craig Mucklow, Caesars vice president of trading. “We expect records to be broken on a weekly basis and even more so when the NBA Finals are over and the women’s game gets additional prime-time TV spots.”
