Moving to Round 5 of the 2024-25 Turkish Airlines EuroLeague Regular Season, our Fantasy tips range between top and lower tiers, seeking more points.
Our readers can be proud if they followed our tips last week. At least, we are.
Juancho Hernangomez and Shaquielle McKissic topped the list of Fantasy options and also delivered.
The 29-year-old forward of Panathinaikos Aktor put up 20 points with a EuroLeague career-high 16 points and a season-high performance index rating, PIR. He was our expensive play.
The 34-year-old guard of Olympiacos logged 18 points adding to a series of solid showings. He was the cheaper option.
This week, we focused on Lorenzo Brown of Panathinaikos. He can be a difference-maker on any given night. We do not think he will be limited to four minutes as in Madrid. Coming off a good game against AEK Betsson in Greece’s Stoiximan GBL Regular Season, we picked him up with 13.2 units. Far from a simple addition, we are betting on momentum.
From there to Dovydas Giedraitis of Zalgiris. The 24-year-old Lithuanian guard is averaging 30 minutes per game, tallying 20 and 23 PIR over the last two appearances with the team coached by Andrea Trinchieri. The best part is that he is tagged at only 7.3 units! Get him on your Fantasy team.
In addition, we retain in-form Mathias Lessort of Panathinaikos as our captain alongside T.J. Shorts II of Paris and Sylvain Francisco of Zalgiris.
