Before we get to Alec Peters, we invite you to play with us in the Eurohoops league, which is named Eurohoops-League, highly original, right?
Already, 514 managers have joined forces with our editors’ teams and are competing for the unofficial title. Come on in.
Just like Alec Peters is coming into our team.
His cost in EuroLeague Fantasy? We find him at the bargain price of 12 credits, and we think he is worth every single fantasy euro we spend on him.
In the season opener in Belgrade against Partizan Mozzart Bet, the Armani Olimpia Milan forward was the only oasis in the mediocrity, let’s not use a harsher word, displayed by coach Peppe Poeta’s squad in a final score of 92-76 final score, dropping a 21 Performance Index Rating.
Armani is playing the derby against Virtus Bologna, and we believe Peters will do his job just the way he knows best. He didn’t play against Trieste in the domestic league opener, but was simply rested, per the Italian club.
Moving on to our second pick for today, and that is Scottie Wilbekin.
He used to be an absolute stud in EuroLeague Fantasy, but over the last two years, he only appeared in seven games due to severe injuries.
This was exactly why Fenerbahce decided not to renew his contract, leading him to Besiktas for a fresh start.
Consequently, his value in EuroLeague Fantasy plummeted, and he is currently sitting at just 7.7 credits.
Dirt cheap.
Last week, he played 24 minutes and produced a 13 PIR, stats that give us every reason to snatch him up at a bargain price. He is a gamble, but if it pays off, we’ve struck gold.
Finally, let’s talk about our Round 1 choices.
Well, there is no need to even debate Sasha Vezenkov. Our boy crushed it once again.
He has now reached 17.6 credits, but we would still lock him into our lineup with a simple click.
Moses Wright didn’t perform well, but we already covered Armani’s situation above.
We attempted to convince you to pick up two very cheap players, and we feel vindicated in at least one of those cases.
Yam Madar of Maccabi Rapyd Tel Aviv delivered 16 fantasy points while costing us next to nothing at 8.8 credits. Even now, at 9.1 credits, you can safely move forward.
As for Joel Parra, he cost 7 credits but gave us nothing. He has now dropped to 6.7 credits. However, the Spanish international forward played an impressive 27 minutes against Anadolu Efes and around 22 minutes in FC Barcelona’s Liga Endesa opener. There, he put up an 18 PIR.
What we are trying to say is that he gets plenty of floor time and is a starter in coach Aleksander Sekulic’s system, so we don’t think he’s a failed choice at just 6.7 credits. Buy him as an investment.
