DraftKings EuroLeague Basketball Picks October 25
By Mike Marteny
DraftKings EuroLeague Forwards:
Will Clyburn is finally starting to put up the kind of numbers that we expect from him, but Voigtmann is nowhere close or consistent for that matter. Clyburn is a suitable alternative if you play on fading Milutinov because of the tough matchup against Baskonia. However, Milutinov’s low mark in the first three rounds was 28.5 DraftKings points. There’s always a chance that Clyburn doesn’t hit that mark.
DraftKings finally wised up and raised the price on Tornike Shengalia to the point that we have to think about whether to use him or not. He’s not automatic with a five figure tag. In fact, I much prefer Luis Scola in a better matchup for $200 less.
Jan Vesely was better off the bench in round 3, so there’s a good chance that Fenerbahce will run him the same way today. Vesely still played 25 minutes just like he did when he started in round 2, so I don’t see any harm in using him. The favorable price tag definitely helps.

The gutted Milan guard corps has opened up more scoring opportunities and Vladimir Micov has capitalized on those. Milan is still battling injuries across the board, so I expect another strong showing from Micov.
The Berlin frontcourt has seemingly been in flux all season so far, but they all perform pretty well. Landry Nnoko is the safer pick. Luke Sikma has the most upside. Niels Giffey is there just to siphon value off of the others.
Tonye Jekiri remains one of my favorite per dollar plays on the entire slate. Villeurbanne has one of their easier matchups so far this year and Jekiri has at least 20 DraftKings points in every game. He’s a sure play for that and the price still hasn’t gone up enough to compensate despite being $2,000 higher than last round.
The value for Kaleb Tarczewski lies almost exclusively in rebounds, but with Jeff Green out this round, there’s a chance that the Arizona product sees some more offensive chances. He’s an intriguing play for the price.
The price on the rest of the Baskonia bigs is up, but not on Youssoupha Fall. Part of that reason is that Fall hasn’t had a block since his five block outburst in round 1. Fall has been plagued by foul trouble and diminished minutes, but Baskonia has proven they will leave him in there if he produces. That makes him a decent GPP play.
Amine Noua had a huge game for Villeurbanne last round, but their rotations have been all over the place. Noua played only 17 combined minutes in the first two rounds combined before playing 28 last round. One would think that his performance would get him more run, but there is still risk involved with the Villeurbanne rotations.
