DraftKings EuroLeague Basketball Picks October 31

Halloween brings just two games for our DraftKings EuroLeague tournaments. That means less value, a shorter injury report, and a very loaded slate on Friday with seven games. That’s the most ever for a DraftKings EuroLeague slate! First, let’s navigate this one starting with the injuries first.

More from DraftKings

Out: Stefan Jovic, G, Khimki; Derrick Brown, F, Belgrade; Egor Vialtsev, F, Khimki; Evgeny Valiev, F, Khimki.

Questionable: Mouhammad Faye, F, Belgrade; Nikos Pappas, G, Athens; Chris Kramer, G, Khimki; Bugrahan Tuncer, G, Efes; Nemanja Nenadic, F, Belgrade.

Khimki and Belgrade are a little battered heading into this one, but that’s pretty much how it has been so far this year.

I finished just out of the money yesterday thanks to a poor outing and 100% exposure to Joffrey. Mirotic and Mateusz Ponitka were great though. So were Hilliard and Maodo Lo.

The rotations can be frustrating sometimes as more players see the court than in your average NBA game. The games themselves are also shorter, playing four ten minute quarters as opposed to 12 minutes in the NBA. The court is smaller, the lane is bigger, and the three point line is closer, but the action is still what you would expect from world class basketball!

For DraftKings EuroLeague, we can’t expect 5x value like in the NBA. Most winning lineups are around 180-200 DraftKings points, which is around 3.5 – 4x value.
