Into the bottom end of the two-game week, namely Round 9 of the Turkish Airlines EuroLeague Regular Season, we present wise options to boost EuroLeague Fantasy points.
Our tip regarding Moustapha Fall was based on Nikola Milutinov being forced to the sidelines. Olympiacos ruling out the Serbian center made it a safe bet, especially considering the potential burden on the Fantasy team. The French center delivered. And we are keeping him around with Milutinov stuck on the injury list.
More tips at the top of the double-game week featured Konstantinos Mitoglou and Marius Grigonis of Panathinaikos. The Greek big shined against Zalgiris. The Lithuanian guard was not equally productive but remains a solid option with a low price and guaranteed playing time. He lasted 35 minutes in OAKA on Wednesday.
Seeking to capitalize on another injury of Olympiacos with Nigel Williams-Goss set to miss one month, the process is straightforward and involves Thomas Walkup. Already on the receiving end of heavy minutes, he is likely to get even more playing time. Furthermore, he carries a friendly price of 10.5 units. Recent struggles lowered his Fantasy value, but he seems to be back on track. Those are the reasons to trust him.
Another move is replacing Crvena Zvezda Meridianbet head coach Giannis Sfairopoulos with Partizan Mozzart Bet head coach Zeljko Obradovic. The Greek tactician produced plenty of points behind the triumph against Fenerbahce Beko, but it is time to switch to the opposite side of the Belgrade rivalry. Partizan going into the home game versus ALBA Berlin as the favorite, we indeed expect a win. Tagged at 6.8 units, Obradovic can produce an enjoyable 25-point score.
