Welcome to our Euroleague Fantasy Challenge weekly column. Check out our Fantasy Approach & our Season preview as well as our RHH Podcast video for some early season under the radar picks.
JOIN OUR PUBLIC FANTASY LEAGUE:
Head coach:
We celebrated coach O. Kattash's birthday with a very nice 20 fantasy points so thank you coach and many happy returns! For Round 5 we will go with P. Laso (6.3 CR)
Anchor player:
Τhe RHH Outsiders faced an unexpected setback with PIR king Sasha Vezenkov (17.6 CR) costing us 0.5 credits. Note that this is ONLY THE 3rd TIME during the last 3 seasons that Sasha is kept as single digits. We are however sticking with him.
Centers:
Same goes for Jonas Valanciunas (16.1 CR) who does not need much to achieve a 20+ score. Our new entry from Round 4 Aliou Diarra (8.6 CR) will remain as his price is far from his average at the moment and has a quite favorable game week ahead.
***** IMPORTANT: NEVER use your second center as the 6th man when BOTH centers play in T1!!! In case of a bad game by your main center you will be unable to move one of them to the bench and you will have to keep that bad score! *****
Forwards:
For our other forward positions, we will of course be keeping high flying Azuolas Tubelis (12.5 CR) and we will also keep Nikos Rogavopoulos (5.3 CR) who returned with another positive performance! We are also keeping our filler pick Stefan Joksimovic (4 CR) !
Guards:
Not an amazing performance from Theo Maledon (11.2 CR) but he seems to be establishing his starting role. is joining our team, alongside Duane Washington (10.6 CR) acquired prior to Round 3! Scottie Wilbekin (8.9 CR) continued his great start to the season so his is deffinetly a keeper! Finally to close our roster, we will be keeping exciting prospect Fodzo Dada (4.9 CR) one of the most promising young players in the competition!
Trades (4)
IN: B. Key (F), N. Hifi (G), D. Hackett (G), P. Laso (HC).
OUT: A. Tubelis (F), D. Washington (G), M. Fodzo Dada (G), O. Kattash (HC)

ROUNDs 5 & 6 VIDEO (S01 E06)
Intro:
Another Euroleague round is in the books and it had many surprise results and performances, both positive and negative. In R4 the RHH Outsiders scored a very mediocre 132.3 fantasy points, increasing our budget by 0.7 CR thanks to our lower budget choices! So ahead of another double round week and before the first wildcard of the season careful planning is in order.
While we will continue to try and increase our budget we do need to significantly increase our scoring. Round 5 games are scheduled in a 7-3 split between turns and Round 6 in an even 5-5 split!
For more suggestions have a look at our RHH Podcast and our weekly fantasy episode where we discuss options, strategy and alternatives before tip-off.
Finalized line-ups will be posted on X so make sure to follow us there!!!
