These fantasy picks are for entertainment purposes only. We don’t have a crystal ball, insider information, or a deal with the sports gods (though we’ve tried). Sometimes our predictions will look like genius… other times, they’ll look like we drafted blindfolded. Please don’t mortgage your dragon’s hoard, your house, or your snack budget based on our advice. Play responsibly, laugh at the misses, and celebrate the wins—especially if they were pure luck.

Overview

     The fifth Double Round week of the EuroLeague Fantasy continues today with R17 in a 4-6 fixture split between T1 & T2, following a very unpredictable round 16. We have a very unpredictable fantasy season in our hands so lets regroup and take our next steps! We are taking it one round at the time so as always we need to... rack up points — or fall behind. With 20 teams playing twice in one week, the stakes are higher, rotations are tighter, and strategy becomes a key element. The key? Focus on:

1. Minutes and roles – favor players with consistent playing time.

2. Matchups – target weaker defenses or teams on a cold streak.

3. Injury updates and rotations – coaches may rest stars in one of the games.

Be sure to check your lineups before each turn to maximize points — especially with captain changes and potential last-minute updates. We do not have a video for you for this round so here are some extra choices as well as our final picks for the round:

In order to stay on top of any last minute roster & team news/absences, we are using the ROTOWIRE page and their fantasy section for Euroleague basketball here. ROTOWIRE consistently provides the latest updates even with just a couple of minutes remaining before tip-off! So keep an eye and cut your losses short.
