After three weeks the Euroleague fantasy challenge is getting harder and harder. We came to the point in which you have to think about the value of the players and also the prospect of their performance. So our chosen new additions this week are Vorontsevich, Randle and Shakur.
As we get deeper into the season the underpriced players are getting less and less. Among the point guards only Marcus Williams and Leo Westermann will raise their value even if they don’t reach their average score. In the perimeter the situation is better. Nemanja Bjelica, Daniel Hackett, Alex Abrines, DeShaun Thomas and Nobel Boungou-Colo are little underpriced. Jaycee Carroll and Edgaras Ulanovas are highly recommended because they are heavily underpriced. In the front line Sasha Kaun, Damian Kulig, Donatas Zavackas, Andrey Vorontsevich, Brian Randle, Furkan Aldemir and Simas Galdikas are among the best option that will give you for sure at least credtis.
It’s time still to sell all the players who must have a big score to keep their price. For example Adrien Moerman will probably play well against Alba. But he must have ranking more than 19,2 to raise his value. So, it’s better to get rid of him and buy him later during the season, if his price drops. Our second player who will move is Luke Harangody because he’s injured. The decision for the third player is really tough. The candidates are Djedovic, Collins and Draper. The first two are the leaders of their teams and play against each other. So, we chose Draper, who doesn’t shoot a lot and Efes doesn’t rely its game on him.
Thanks to the 11,4 unspent credits from last week, we have a total of 166,7 credits available. Our first choice is Vorontsevich, a player whom we would have liked to add some weeks earlier. The second one is Randle who is steady and plays a lot because Maccabi has many absences. The chosen point guard is Mustafa Shakur because he shoots a lot and does also many things in the court.
Enjoy fantasy!
