DraftKings EuroLeague basketball picks February 6

DraftKings did it again. They chopped off the 12:30 pm eastern game from today’s DraftKings EuroLeague slate leaving us with three games for the start of round 24. Why? They took off Efes and Zalgiris, both DFS gold mines for different reasons. It makes this slate far less interesting. Injuries may do the same.

Out: Georgios Printezis (rib), Vassilis Spanoulis (ankle), Pierria Henry (cheek), Rudy Fernandez (adductor), Charles Kahudi (ankle), Taylor Rochestie (foot), Amine Noua (ankle), Edwin Jackson (undisclosed), Andrey Vorontsevich (ankle), Vasilis Charalampopoulos (undisclosed), Ivan Uhkov (illness), Tim Schneider (back), Mikhail Kulagin (illness), Stefan Peno (knee), Will Clyburn (knee), Jayson Granger (Achilles), Luca Vildoza (shoulder), Aleksej Pokusevski (undisclosed).

Questionable: Nicolas Laprovittola (undisclosed), Kenneth Ogbe (concussion).

There is likely nothing wrong with Laprovittola here. Real Madrid is just at full strength and he is the odd man out. Olympiacos is looking a little beaten up this time around and Real Madrid is at full strength. What’s going on here?

I gambled on Lorenzo Brown yesterday. That was a bad idea. Brown played just 13 minutes and didn’t score. That was enough to sink my lineup. No one had a huge day. Shved and Dublejevic were probably the best.

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.
