Here are Javier Gancedo's EuroLeague Fantasy Challenge recommendations for Games 3 and 4

EuroLeague Fantasy tips: Berlin, here we go!

The second week of the Turkish Airlines EuroLeague Playoffs is here, with Games 3 and 4 taking place between Tuesday and Friday. Real Madrid is the only team that can rubber stamp its place in the Final Four in Game 3, but it faces a tricky test on the road at Baskonia Vitoria-Gasteiz.

The other three series are all 1-1, which means that there are plenty of good options in the EuroLeague Fantasy Challenge before Game 4 – players from at least six teams. There are still some players with really good value in the playoffs. Here are my recommendations for this intense week.

[Lorenzo Brown, Maccabi Playtika Tel Aviv (12.3 credits)](https://www.euroleaguebasketball.net/en/euroleague/players/lorenzo-brown/009622/)

Wade Baldwin missed Game 2 due to injury and might not be in peak condition if he’s available to play in Game 3. Maccabi should not worry, though, as Lorenzo Brown has rediscovered his best form. Brown is averaging 17.0 points and 4.5 assists against Panathinaikos, good for a PIR average of 17.5. An elite-level guard at a good price.

[Alec Peters, Olympiacos Piraeus (11.7 credits)](https://www.euroleaguebasketball.net/en/euroleague/players/alec-peters/008829/)

Olympiacos should bounce back from its road loss in Game 2 now that the series heads to Greece. Peters led the way in Game 2 with 20 points, 5 rebounds and a PIR of 19. Kostas Papanikolaou may return to the Reds' lineup, sending Peters back to his natural position at power forward. That's where Peters can make the most of his deep range and quickness.

Lorenzo Brown, Jordan Loyd, Kostas Sloukas, Alec Peters and Walter Tavares are featured in this week's article.

EuroLeague Fantasy tips: Playoffs Games 3-4

[Kostas Sloukas, Panathinaikos AKTOR Athens (15.9 credits)](https://www.euroleaguebasketball.net/en/euroleague/players/kostas-sloukas/001926/)

Sloukas has been unstoppable in the last seven games, getting a PIR of 21 or better in each of those contests. In the Greens’ playoff series against Maccabi, Sloukas is posting 20.5 points, 8.5 assists and a PIR of 25.5, while he’s also shooting the ball really well (83.3% 2Fg, 50.0% 3FG, 85.7% FT). Having Sloukas in your team, at this point, is mandatory.

[Walter Tavares, Real Madrid (14.6 credits)](https://www.euroleaguebasketball.net/en/euroleague/players/walter-tavares/005791/)

Real Madrid needs one more win to punch its ticket to the Final Four. Los Blancos want to seal the deal as quickly as possible, and Tavares will be looking to make it happen. The Cape Verdean “five” is a natural mismatch at center, but the fact that Chima Moneke and Khalifa Diop are unavailable makes things even harder for Baskonia. Tavares is averaging a PIR of 18.5 in under 20 minutes in this series.

[Jordan Loyd, AS Monaco (10.4 credits)](https://www.euroleaguebasketball.net/en/euroleague/players/jordan-loyd/009754/)

Monaco needs at least one road win to stay alive in the playoffs and will rely on its most experienced players to do so. Loyd has been playing well (15.5 ppg., 57.1% 3FG, 15.0 PIR) in this series and had a couple of monster performances in last season's playoff series against Maccabi. With the season on the line, Loyd will be ready to step up.

EuroLeague Playoffs Game 1 and 2 disciplinary sanctions

After winning a game apiece last week, Maccabi Playtika Tel Aviv and Panathinaikos AKTOR Athens head to Belgrade to continue a series that promises to deliver a succession of high-scoring shootouts.

Maccabi, Panathinaikos poised to keep fireworks going

[Rosters](https://www.euroleaguebasketball.net/en/euroleague/game-center/2023-24/maccabi-playtika-tel-aviv-panathinaikos-aktor-athens/E2023/321/#roster) | [Facts](https://www.euroleaguebasketball.net/en/euroleague/news/tae2324-po-g3-game-facts-tel-pan/) | [Notes](https://www.euroleaguebasketball.net/en/euroleague/news/tae2324-po-g3-game-notes-tel-pan/) | [Quotes](https://www.euroleaguebasketball.net/en/euroleague/news/tae2324-po-g3-prequotes-tel-pan/) |[ TV](https://www.euroleaguebasketball.net/euroleague/tv-listings-el/) | [Predictions](https://www.euroleaguebasketball.net/euroleague/news/playoff-predictions-panathinaikos-vs-maccabi)

Having missed Game 2 through injury, Maccabi is hoping to have [Wade Baldwin](https://www.euroleaguebasketball.net/en/euroleague/players/wade-baldwin-iv/009863/) available to complement the threat of backcourt teammate [Lorenzo Brown](https://www.euroleaguebasketball.net/en/euroleague/players/lorenzo-brown/009622/), who has averaged 17 points and 4.5 assists so far in the series.

Panathinaikos's triumph on Friday was inspired by one of the league's true clutch performers, as [Kostas Sloukas](https://www.euroleaguebasketball.net/en/euroleague/players/kostas-sloukas/001926/) blasted 29 points on 12-for-16 field goal shooting. The Greens will again look for his combination of leadership and explosiveness in an exciting matchup with Brown.

Acquaintances will also be renewed for a major battle in the paint, where Maccabi's [Josh Nebo](https://www.euroleaguebasketball.net/en/euroleague/players/josh-nebo/011199/) will look to bounce back from a quiet performance in Game 2 (6 points, 3 rebounds) to control the influence of [Mathias Lessort](https://www.euroleaguebasketball.net/en/euroleague/players/mathias-lessort/003842/), who paired 11 points with 8 rebounds and 3 assists in Friday's victory.

Both teams love to crash the offensive glass, so other powerful rebounders such as [Bonzie Colson](https://www.euroleaguebasketball.net/en/euroleague/players/bonzie-colson/009783/), [Antonius Cleveland](https://www.euroleaguebasketball.net/en/euroleague/players/antonius-cleveland/012744/), [Kostas Antetokounmpo](https://www.euroleaguebasketball.net/en/euroleague/players/kostas-antetokounmpo/011221/) and [Dinos Mitoglou](https://www.euroleaguebasketball.net/en/euroleague/players/konstantinos-mitoglou/007866/) will also have important roles.

[Maccabi Stats](https://www.euroleaguebasketball.net/en/euroleague/teams/maccabi-playtika-tel-aviv/statistics/tel/?season=2023-24&phase=All%20phases) | [Panathinaikos Stats](https://www.euroleaguebasketball.net/en/euroleague/teams/panathinaikos-aktor-athens/statistics/pan/?season=2023-24&phase=All%20phases)

Power forwards Bonzie Colson and Konstantinos Mitoglou each had a prominent role in their respective teams' wins in the first two games.

Maccabi's 87-91 win in Game 1 was powered by backcourt duo Lorenzo Brown and Wade Baldwin, although but the latter had retreat early with a leg injury. The Greens need a bounce-back performance from Kendrick Nunn after he scored just 8 points, but may again count on Kostas Sloukas after his double-double.

After finishing the regular season with nine consecutive home wins, Panathinaikos look to carry that form into postseason versus a dangerous Maccabi roster, which cruised through its play-in test by crushing Baskonia 113-85 and are one of the only three visiting teams to have won in Athens this term.

Another tied series heads to the cauldron of the Peace and Friendship Stadium as Olympiacos welcomes FC Barcelona to Piraeus.

Olympiacos aims to defend home floor against Barcelona

[Rosters](https://www.euroleaguebasketball.net/en/euroleague/game-center/2023-24/olympiacos-piraeus-fc-barcelona/E2023/319/#roster) | [Facts](https://www.euroleaguebasketball.net/en/euroleague/news/tae2324-po-g3-game-facts-oly-bar/) | [Notes](https://www.euroleaguebasketball.net/en/euroleague/news/tae2324-po-g3-game-notes-oly-bar/) | [Quotes](https://www.euroleaguebasketball.net/en/euroleague/news/tae2324-po-g3-prequotes-oly-bar/) |[ TV](https://www.euroleaguebasketball.net/euroleague/tv-listings-el/) | [Fantasy](https://www.euroleaguebasketball.net/euroleague/news/fantasy-challenge-tips-round-38/)

The Reds will hope to welcome back [Kostas Papanikolaou](https://www.euroleaguebasketball.net/en/euroleague/players/kostas-papanikolaou/001255/) after he missed last week's games with a fever, and will also hope that [Isaiah Canaan](https://www.euroleaguebasketball.net/en/euroleague/players/isaiah-canaan/010612/) can resume his usual scoring exploits after being held to just 2 free throws in Game 2 on Friday.

Barca's Game 2 triumph was led by 24 points from [Jabari Parker](https://www.euroleaguebasketball.net/en/euroleague/players/jabari-parker/012745/), including 4-for-7 three-point shooting. But the Blaugranas have suffered from inconsistent guard play so far in the series, and [Nico Laprovittola](https://www.euroleaguebasketball.net/en/euroleague/players/nicolas-laprovittola/006435/) has been particularly quiet with averages of just 7 points and 2.5 assists so far.

This has been by far the most defensive series, with neither team scoring more than 77 points yet, and that's likely to continue as both coaches Georgios Bartzokas and Roger Grimau focus on limiting turnovers and protecting the backboard. As such, the rebounding abilities of [Moustapha Fall](https://www.euroleaguebasketball.net/en/euroleague/players/moustapha-fall/008811/) and [Filip Petrusev](https://www.euroleaguebasketball.net/en/euroleague/players/filip-petrusev/011194/) up against [Jan Vesely](https://www.euroleaguebasketball.net/en/euroleague/players/jan-vesely/000925/) and [Willy Hernangomez](https://www.euroleaguebasketball.net/en/euroleague/players/willy-hernangomez/003196/) will be a significant factor in the outcome.

[Olympiacos Stats](https://www.euroleaguebasketball.net/en/euroleague/teams/olympiacos-piraeus/statistics/oly/?season=2023-24&phase=All%20phases) | [Barcelona Stats](https://www.euroleaguebasketball.net/en/euroleague/teams/fc-barcelona/statistics/bar/?season=2023-24&phase=All%20phases)

Battle between big men Filip Petrusev and Jan Vesely could be one of the keys of Game 3

Barça's focus could be on better ball control and perhaps improved play inside the paint after converting just 18 of its 38 two-point attempts in the 75-77 defeat, in which the Reds were able to enjoy a Game 1 triumph despite a relatively quiet night from key offensive performers Thomas Walkup and Alec Peters.

Heavyweights collide as Barcelona and Olympiacos bid to further bolster their championship-credentials with two stellar defensive guards aiming to control the tempo as the host's Tomas Satoransky confronts the Reds' Thomas Walkup. Could this matchup prove pivotal come the final buzzer?

Olympiacos Piraeus v FC Barcelona (2024-04-30T18:30:00.000Z)

Reigning champ Real Madrid can become the first team to qualify for the Final Four by prevailing at Baskonia Vitoria-Gasteiz, which needs to win twice this week at Buesa Arena to force a decider.

Los Blancos target a playoff sweep at Baskonia

[Rosters](https://www.euroleaguebasketball.net/en/euroleague/game-center/2023-24/baskonia-vitoria-gasteiz-real-madrid/E2023/318/#roster) | [Facts](https://www.euroleaguebasketball.net/en/euroleague/news/tae2324-po-g3-game-facts-bas-mad/) | [Notes](https://www.euroleaguebasketball.net/en/euroleague/news/tae2324-po-g3-game-notes-bas-mad/) | [Quotes](https://www.euroleaguebasketball.net/en/euroleague/news/tae2324-po-g3-prequotes-bas-mad/) |[ TV](https://www.euroleaguebasketball.net/euroleague/tv-listings-el/) | [Predictions](https://www.euroleaguebasketball.net/euroleague/news/playoff-predictions-real-madrid-vs-baskonia)

Baskonia has to find a way of stopping a Real offense which has run riot in the opening two games, scoring 90 and 101 points led by the playmaking of [Facu Campazzo](https://www.euroleaguebasketball.net/en/euroleague/players/facundo-campazzo/005928/) with averages of 17 points and 5 assists, with just 1 turnover, in the series so far.

If the game becomes another shootout, Baskonia will again lean heavily on the long-range shooting of [Markus Howard](https://www.euroleaguebasketball.net/en/euroleague/players/markus-howard/011948/), who was held to below average scores of 15 and 12 points in the first two games.

But Real can also easily dominate inside, as it showed in Game 2 with [Vincent Poirier](https://www.euroleaguebasketball.net/en/euroleague/players/vincent-poirier/004887/), [Walter Tavares](https://www.euroleaguebasketball.net/en/euroleague/players/walter-tavares/005791/) and [Guerschon Yabusel](https://www.euroleaguebasketball.net/en/euroleague/players/guerschon-yabusele/010357/)e combining for 36 points, 21 rebounds and blocked shots in Game 2. So Dusko Ivanovic’s team will need to play a complete game – led by the all-round threat of [Codi Miller-McIntyre](https://www.euroleaguebasketball.net/en/euroleague/players/codi-miller-mcintyre/009048/) and the rebounding of [Tadas Sedekerskis](https://www.euroleaguebasketball.net/en/euroleague/players/tadas-sedekerskis/007230/) – to keep the series alive.

[Baskonia Stats](https://www.euroleaguebasketball.net/en/euroleague/teams/baskonia-vitoria-gasteiz/statistics/bas/?season=2023-24&phase=All%20phases) | [Madrid Stats](https://www.euroleaguebasketball.net/en/euroleague/teams/real-madrid/statistics/mad/?season=2023-24&phase=All%20phases)

Forwards Tadas Sedekerskis and Guerschon Yabusele play big part for their teams in controlling the glass

Real delivered a serious and focused performance in the opening encounter thanks to a collective effort, with 11 different players scoring at least 2 field goals. Against that formidable depth, Baskonia hope key scorer Markus Howard recovers to full fitness after a knee injury restricted him to just 18 minutes of action.

Real Madrid-Baskonia Vitoria-Gasteiz | Playoffs Game 2 | 2023-24 Turkish Airlines EuroLeague

After launching a dramatic fourth quarter comeback to tie the series on Friday, AS Monaco will look to build more momentum as it travels to face a Fenerbahce Beko Istanbul team that has often looked unstoppable in Istanbul.

Monaco was able to take an exciting victory in Game 2 despite the first single-digit scoring this season from [Mike James](https://www.euroleaguebasketball.net/en/euroleague/players/mike-james/005985/), who will look to regain his usual high standards to help his team reclaim home-court advantage.

James's rare quiet night was compensated by in-form [Jordan Loyd](https://www.euroleaguebasketball.net/en/euroleague/players/jordan-loyd/009754/), who has scored 16 and 15 points in the first two games of the series, while Monaco will hope [Donatas Motiejunas](https://www.euroleaguebasketball.net/en/euroleague/players/donatas-motiejunas/lcz/) can again control the tempo inside the paint after netting 18 points last time out.

Fenerbahce has scored at least 80 points in nine consecutive home games, surpassing 90 points in six of those. The home team will hope to climb towards those totals again by maintaining its three-point shooting, which saw both [Scottie Wilbekin](https://www.euroleaguebasketball.net/en/euroleague/players/scottie-wilbekin/006661/) (23 points) and [Tyler Dorsey](https://www.euroleaguebasketball.net/en/euroleague/players/tyler-dorsey/009849/) (25) drain 6 triples on Friday, but Fener also needs more inside play after none of its big men were able to reach double figures in Game 2.

Fenerbahce's Nigel Hayes-Davis and Monaco's Jaron Blossomgame to provide all-round contributions in key Game 3

As so often this term, Nigel Hayes-Davis was the architect of a series-opener success for Fenerbahce, combining 19 points with 7 rebounds in nearly 40 minutes, whereas improved perimeter defense could be a priority for Monaco, who target greater accuracy in its own deep game after going just 8-for-27.

AS Monaco-Fenerbahce Beko Istanbul | Playoffs Game 2 | 2023-24 Turkish Airlines EuroLeague

A key aspect of this game could be control. Monaco has committed the fewest number of turnovers in the league (10.0 pg), contributing to a defense that's allowed just 79.4 ppg , yet Fenerbahce's efficiency offense ranks first in three-point shooting percentage (39.1%) and third in two-pointers (56.4%).

Learn about how the EuroLeague's career three-point king's magical shots got their name

Sergio Llull's 'mandarinas' through the years

Real Madrid star guard [Sergio Llull](https://www.euroleaguebasketball.net/en/euroleague/players/sergio-llull/tgb/) recently became the Turkish Airlines EuroLeague's all-time leader in three-pointers made. Llull now leads the standings with 627 three-point shots made, and counting, leaving Juan Carlos Navarro in second place with 623 shots from beyond the arc.

His sustained excellence over 17 EuroLeague seasons has left Llull's name all over the all-time charts in many categories. He ranks second in games played (404), third in minutes (9,053), fifth in scoring (3,928 points) and sixth in assists (1,390). Llull was the 2016-17 EuroLeague MVP and was named to the 2010-20 EuroLeague All-Decade Team.

When it comes to three-pointers, Llull has made a lot of unconventional ones which led to naming his signature shot "la mandarina", which in English is "the tangerine". Why is it called that and where did that term come from? Well, you've come to the right place.

Real Madrid star guard Sergio Llull recently became the Turkish Airlines EuroLeague's all-time leader in three-pointers made. Llull now leads the standings with 627 three-point shots made, and counting, leaving Juan Carlos Navarro in second place with 623 shots from beyond the arc.

### 'Mandarina' explained

It began as a local joke that got out of hand. In Spanish, 'mandarina' was a term for a tough shot that was generally taken with the shot clock running down to avoid a turnover. Only rarely would it go in. Spanish journalist Andres Montes, who passed away in 2009, was the first to use the term regularly. Llull changed its meaning forever by making many of those shots, maybe more often than any other player in basketball history.

Llull did his part by using the term often and posting orange icons on social media every time he saw one of those shots on official or teammates' accounts. He got a reputation for hitting a lot of those shots throughout his career, beating the shot clock and end-of-quarter buzzers with impossible, high-arching shots of all kinds and from all distances.

His most iconic, however, was not a 'mandarina', nor a three-pointer. Llull buried a high-arching shot over Moustapha Fall late in the 2023 EuroLeague Championship Game which allowed Real to win its 11th EuroLeague title. Thanks to that shot, Llull, is now a three-time EuroLeague winner and this season he has the chance to give *Los Blancos* back-to-back continental crowns for the first time since 1968. It would be a perfect end to a season in which Llull became the EuroLeague's three-point king!
