DraftKings EuroLeague basketball picks March 3

DraftKings EuroLeague Forwards:

I was high on both Bojan Dubljevic and Jonas Jerebko last week. I may not use either one here. Both have tough matchups. I would consider running Jerebko just because he is so consistent, but I wouldn’t touch Bojan here. Walter Tavares is a strong pivot, especially if he is going to keep scoring like he has the last couple of rounds.

Trey Thompkins should see an uptick in minutes here with Randolph out. I would use Thompkins over that Olympiacos front. I don’t trust anything to do with that even with a good matchup. Kostas Papanikolaou is worth considering given his recent run, but I still don’t trust it.

The Milan front is very tempting right now. Real Madrid is missing Randolph, Mickey, and Deck. That leaves Tavares, Thompkins, Rudy Fernandez, and Jeffrey Taylor as the healthy bodies. I like Taylor as a value play here. For Milan, I really like Vladimir Micov. Tarczewski relies a lot of defense and Tavares is still around, so Micov is the Milan play for me.

If you don’t trust Milan, I don’t blame you. Luckily there is still a lot left in the middle tier. Zach Leday has played well lately and has another good matchup. Same for Tonye Jekiri. I trust Leday and his teammate Edgaras Ulanovas a lot more. I will be running them as a low-priced stack in at least one lineup. You could add Jock Landale to the stack if you’re feeling frisky. He had a huge game against Khimki the first time around.

Livio Jean-Charles returns this week for Villeurbanne. I’m wondering who gets displaced since both David Lighty and Adreian Payne played well in his absence. It’s probably best to avoid this and just use Jean-Charles if you want a piece of this front in a good matchup.
