DraftKings EuroLeague basketball picks November 18
By Mike Marteny
DraftKings EuroLeague Forwards:
Moustapha Fall is a constant double-double threat and one the most consistent forward on the slate. On a slate without truly elite options at guard, the top tier of forwards could be more highly owned than usual. Fall doesn’t have the greatest upside, but he should be in every cash lineup.
Luke Sikma probably has the highest upside among forwards, but he also has the lowest floor. I prefer the consistency of Ante Zizic. The upside isn’t much lower, but the floor is nearly ten points higher.
I like how aggressive Trey Thompkins has been this year for Real Madrid. Both he and Walter Tavares have a good matchup against Tel Aviv today.
I expect a bit of a regression from Shavon Shields with the Milan guards back at full strength. Niels Giffey and Charles Kahudi both look much safer and are both cheaper than Shields.
Anthony Randolph is too cheap for what he is capable of. This Real Madrid front is loaded, but Randolph is a cheap way to get exposure to them. I like the ceiling for the price, but you never know how this rotation is going to work itself out. There will be minutes available with Taylor out though.
David Lighty is one of the more solid value plays that you can have. There’s not much for upside here, but he has a good floor if you need to punt. Ben Lammers is a solid value as well.
