Panathinaikos acquired Elliot Williams just a few weeks ago, however the American player has already started changing the Greens’ playing style. He has a lot of playing time in every game, so it’s necessary to choose him in fantasy.
Williams managed to improve Panathinaikos‘ backcourt, as he is very explosive, shoots the ball well from the three-point range and the mid-range, respectively, while he is chasing one on one situations. That’s why he played for 33 minutes against Fenerbahce, having more playing time than any other on the court.
In the Greek league, he scored 17 points in 15 minutes of action and can certainly make another impressive performance against Unicaja Malaga. He had 11 points in the ranking system, in his first match, so he can be another great option for all fantasy players, apart from Djordjevic.
Williams and Joey Dorsey were the only players, who were so impressive in their debut last week. So, Barcelona’s center is a great choice in your frontline.
Last week was one of the best in fantasy, as many players made great performances, with Anthony Randolph setting a new record in top 16’s ranking system. Eurohoopsnet team has 179, 1 points, having seven players with 17 or more points.
This week, Giannis Bourousis should certainly be the first substitution, as his presence in Laboral Kutxa’s match against Olympiacos is in doubt. Regarding Matt Janning, the risk wasn’t so successful, so Williams is certainly a safer choice.
The last player that should leave the team is Tyrese Rice, although this is a difficult decision. However, Barcelona is getting better and better and that’s why the departure of the American guard is inevitable.
Bobby Dixon is another acquisition in the backcourt, as he has a lot of playing time in the past few games and hits many shots, while, as 85 credits are still available, Gustavo Ayon is the best option in the frontline.
CSKA Moscow‘s defence is not so effective inside the paint, so Ayon can make the difference, along with Joey Dorsey, who is an excellent choice, with just 47.2 credits.
Enjoy the fantasy!
