This season is the toughest in recent years in fantasy. Seeking players who are underrated and will provide your team with easy credits is difficult, but Eurohoops is here to help.
Before the third game day of the EuroLeague, the cases of players who have had a much better start than their initial value and who must be on the roster of every team are few. The double competing commitments within a week will surely force many coaches to have a bigger rotation and many players to have ups and downs.
In the table below you can see which players can give you credits without necessarily having the perfect game.

On the contrary, the ones who are included in this table are expected to lose value since they are rather overrated.

Let’s take a look at the Eurohoops Team and how the next game day is going to shape up.
Maik Zirbes was rather overpriced and wasn’t worth the risk anymore. No other player had to leave for obvious reasons (that is to say, in order for us to win credits), so let’s look at competitive criteria.
Nikos Pappas is not a bargain anymore, Bamberg’s defense is going to be adjusted on him and we can definitely find better opportunities at his price. Also, something similar goes for Blazic as well, as he didn’t take advantage of the momentum of his good performance in the first game.
With 133,3 credits available we have two paths we can follow, one is conservative and one involves greater risk. The first includes the trio of Simonovic (he’s underrated and Zvezda are relying heavily on him), Oleson (he can get more playing time and attempts thanks to Navarro’s absence), and either Parakhouski (his value and performance are expected to rise) or Birch (Milan cannot deal with athletic big men and he might have a good game).
However, it’s preferable to “bet” on thecapitalization of Justin Doellman’s absence. Sasha Vezenkov did splendidly against Fenerbahce and Betis, he’s undervalued, and with a price of just 31,3 credits he can make the difference. In the backcourt, the acquisition of Simonovic is a given and the last one is going to be that of Cedi Osman, as he’s in form and against CSKA he can have a performance similar to the one he had against Olympiacos.
Enjoy fantasy!
