ISTANBUL, TURKEY – OCTOBER 17: Tornike Shengelia, #23 of Kirolbet Baskonia Vitoria Gasteiz in action during the 2019/2020 Turkish Airlines EuroLeague Regular Season Round 3 match between Fenerbahce Beko Istanbul and Kirolbet Baskonia Vitoria Gasteiz at Ulker Sports Arena on October 17, 2019 in Istanbul, Turkey.

DraftKings EuroLeague Forwards:

Tornike Shengelia is matchup proof. Olympiacos is really tough on forwards on paper, but Shengalia lit them up for 43.75 DraftKings points last round. Bryant Dunston has the better matchup this round, but I find it hard to stay off of Shengelia.

Rokas Giedraitis has been a pleasant surprise for Berlin and is a newcomer to five figure salaries. The numbers have been there even when the shot isn’t, so Giedraitis is one of the safer options out there. I think if he had a lot of upside though, we would have seen it by now. If you’re looking for a 30 spot, look elsewhere.

I really don’t like the matchup or the price hike for Tonye Jekiri, but with the way he played last round, I certainly understand it. Baskonia is notoriously tough up front so I would temper expectations, but I can still see Jekiri going over 20 and flirting with 30.

The prices on the Khimki frontcourt are finally to the point where none of them are automatic plays. Devin Booker is still my favorite because he has been the most consistent. Janis Timma probably has the best upside, but Booker is $1,100 cheaper.

I really like the matchup for James Gist here and think he may go low owned because he burned all of us in round three. If you are taking a risk at this price though, I much prefer Youssoupha Fall. He racked up 16 rebounds and two blocks last round. I much prefer playing someone who doesn’t rely on straight scoring to have a great fantasy game.

Arturas Gudaitis was money in his 2019-20 EuroLeague debut last round. He racked up 28.25 DraftKings points in 21 minutes despite not starting the game. Milan needs all of the healthy bodies they can get. I really like Gudaitis at this price. Enjoy the discount while you can!

I don’t know where Belgrade dug up Borisa Simanic, but he flourished in limited minutes in his EuroLeague debut. Simanic put up 12.5 DraftKings points in 14 minutes last round. I like him as a GPP dart here since he should be a part of the regular rotation for Belgrade after that performance
