Looking for some help with your EuroLeague Fantasy Challenge team for this week? You have come to the right place! Like every week, fantasy guru Javier Gancedo has recommendations on whom to buy. This week the list includes two superstars in great shape, a backup center who surprised almost everyone in Round 10, and two well-rounded veterans playing solid roles in their teams. Here they are:
Isaiah Canaan, Olympiacos Piraeus (8.7 credits) – Canaan has been playing really well lately, scoring in double digits in each of his last 7 EuroLeague appearances. Over his last five games, Canaan has averaged 17.6 points and a PIR of 17.4, making 18 of 30 three-pointers (60.0%). All for much less than 10 credits!
Mathias Lessort, Panathinaikos AKTOR Athens (16.2 credits) – Lessort plays against his former team and his emotional bond with Partizan and its fans should make him even better. He has been unstoppable lately, too, averaging 13.3 points on 77.8% two-point shooting, 6.7 rebounds and a PIR of 19.7 over his last three games.
Shane Larkin, Anadolu Efes Istanbul (16.0 credits) – Larkin is showing his best version lately and now that Derek Willis is injured, he should take even more responsibilities on offense. In the last three games, Larkin has averaged 21.7 points, 6.3 assists and a PIR of 24.7. A superstar in the prime of his career.
James Nnaji, FC Barcelona (5.9 credits) – Nnaji was Barca's X-factor against Maccabi last week, posting career-highs of 11 points and a PIR of 16, without missing any shots. Nnaji is set to see extended playing time as long as Jan Vesely remains sidelined. Until then, he is a very good backup option at center.
Devin Booker, FC Bayern Munich (10.5 credits) – Booker has been Bayern's main plater lately, playing alongside Ibaka at power forward or without him at center. In his last three games, Booker has averaged 12.3 points on 65.0% two-point shooting, 9.3 rebounds and a PIR of 18.7. Expect him to keep posting solid numbers.
