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

     Round 26 of EuroLeague Fantasy is just around the corner and once more is the first part of another double round week. R26 will be split into 2 Turns with all but 1 games played in T1 (9-1 split! again), an important aspect to take into account. Selecting a player you can trust as a backup captain from the T2 game is a safe approach but you can also go all-in for T1. So an additional chance to... rack up points — or fall behind. With 20 teams competing, 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.

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.
