Considering our options before Round 16 of the 2024-25 Turkish Airlines EuroLeague Regular Season, we found valuable players in Filip Petrusev, Tamir Blatt, and David McCormack.
Round 16 opens the next double-game week and also creates affordable opportunities for EuroLeague Fantasy players.
With our tips usually producing Fantasy points in the bunches, we fell short of such a tally with Juancho Hernangomez in Round 15. The Spanish forward of Panathinaikos Aktor struggled against Anadolu Efes, similar to his teammates. However, Carsen Edwards was a solid pick.
Looking for a boost from Petrusev, Blatt, and McCormack, they are available at a low price in the Fantasy market. They are all potential long-term options.
Petrusev, 24, was removed from our squad last week because he was ineligible for Crvena Zvezda Meridianbet versus Olympiacos. At 10.8 units, he is back. Well, his price is relatively high as we initially picked him up at 7.9 units, but with 19.1 PIR per game, including two showings stretching over 34, we can’t overlook the Serbian big.
Blatt, 27, leads Europe’s premier club continental competition in blocks with 8.8 per game alongside 16.1 PIR per contest. The Israeli guard of Maccabi Playtika Tel Aviv is on a roll this year. He is currently tagged at 9.2 units, higher than his initial price, and is worth a squad spot in Fantasy teams after recovering from a recent injury.
McCormack, 25, went from EA7 Emporio Armani Milan to ALBA Berlin during the 2024-25 journey. Revamped since the move between EuroLeague clubs, he went over 20 PIR in three straight games. Costing only 8.8 units is the best part! It is impossible to find a center with such showings at that range.
