DraftKings EuroLeague Forwards:

Only Athens has held Bojan Dubljevic under 20 DraftKings points since Round 3. This is a great matchup for the Valencia front and Dubljevic in particular. If you don’t spend all of your money on guards, Dubljevic is a strong play up front.

I keep avoiding Rokas Giedraitis because of bad matchups, but he still keeps putting up big minutes which turns into big numbers. This is one of the tougher matchups he can get with Olympiacos, but who’s to say he wont turn in another strong outing?

Luke Sikma has 76.5 DraftKings points over the last two rounds. That’s better than anyone else at forward on today’s slate. He and Giedraitis are dominating for Berlin lately. You should be able to get one or both at low ownership if you’re willing to take the risk in a bad matchup.

Luis Scola continues a run of big production in little minutes. He is one of the more efficient scorers in the EuroLeague and has been a big spark for Milan up front. Scola is fairly priced for the production, but the fact that he still plays under 25 minutes in most games add an element of risk here.

The entire Khimki front was a big disappointment in Round 9 for us value hunters with Timma out. Booker turned in a horrible outing. Gill was solid for the price and so was Jerebko, but they didn’t offer any more value. Jeremy Evans was the only real value play, but at his price it’s still tough to pay that much for someone who barely plays half the game. It may be best to just avoid this whole situation.

Say hello to Jock Landale. Zalgiris needed someone to step up in the frontcourt. Landale has 56.25 DraftKings points over the last two games. Forward is where we really want value with all of the great guards to choose from. Landale provides that.

Derrick Brown is about the only Belgrade guy that did more with the minutes gained with Gist sitting out. Due to the lack of production by pretty much everyone, I wouldn’t be a bit shocked if Belgrade brings Gist back after just one game. If they do, I’ll use Gist. If not, even Brown didn’t provide enough of an uptick for the price to consider using him.

The only Belgrade frontcourt player I would even consider is Michael Ojo. Ojo put up 23 DraftKings points in just 17 minutes. We have to think that he’ll get more run as this team is trying to figure out which pieces fit up front.
