Eurohoops singled out the five players who contributed a lot more than what fans expected them to this season in Europe’s top club competition. The common characteristic shared by all five of them is that their team made the playoffs, which get under way on Tuesday (17/4). Let’s take a look at the Top 5 most underrated players of this season’s EuroLeague that includes two experienced players and three rookies…
Anthony Gill (11 points, 4.6 rebounds, 0.9 assists, 12.1 PIR)
The 25-year-old American forward is in the second season of his professional career and his first in the EuroLeague. In Khimki, there is Alexey Shved and… the others, with Gill standing out considerably among Georgios Bartzokas’s… other players. He never showed a rookie’s nervousness and completed the regular season with 309 points and 129 rebounds in 710 minutes. It remains to be seen whether he will continue at the same pace in the games against CSKA Moscow.
