Fanta Euroleague, M29 Tips
Here are our tips for M29 of Dunkest Euroleague
Tip-off at 6 pm with Olimpia flying to Moscow against CSKA. El Clasico between Real and Barça in the middle. The matchday ends with a playoff match between Valencia and Fenerbache at 9 pm.
GUARDS
Nando De Colo (Fenerbahçe, 15.2 CR): Valencia was for him one of the possible destinations during summer. Remained at Fener, he is leading it up in the playoff run. In this regard, in case of victory it would lead to 4 victories from the taronja. Unmissable opportunity.
Krunoslav Simon (Anadolu Efes Istanbul, 11.1 CR): added value to guards department of Ataman. Against Zalgiris his defending on Grigonis or Walkup will be fundamental, but we are confident that on Dunkest side he will not disappoint us in terms of points.
Simone Fontecchio (Alba Berlin, 7.3 CR): Aito is giving him a lot of confidence and the Italian is amply repaying him, with the best season in his career so far. The trip to Lyon is not easy at all, but his physique could be useful, against the athleticism coach TJ Parker’s guys.
FORWARDS
Will Thomas (Zenit St Petersburg, 11.6 CR): He is not very consistent, but Printezis still has his back at half serve and Thomas could take advantage of it. Internal competition in the role is important, but when he plays well, the Zenit wins. Pascual has to start from him again.
Rokas Giedraitis (Baskonia Vitoria-Gasteiz, 10.3 CR): except for the defeat against Barcelona, he is returning to acceptable levels of shape, for one of the most anticipated players in the Basque market. It will not be easy against Bayern, but he knows team members who have already met in Alba.
Chris Singleton (Anadolu Efes Istanbul, 9.9 CR): scrolling through the forwards pages, he is one of the most convincing. Keeping Hayes won’t be much of a problem for him.
CENTERS
Jordan Mickey (Khimki Moscow Region, 12.1 CR): take advantage of the moment as long as possible. He, Shved and little else in Maltsev’s Khimki. It seems to be using the moment as a showcase for the future. Against the Red Star he can be repeat.
Ben Lammers (Alba Berlin, 10.0 CR): as for Fontecchio, his growth path is also on the rise. He’ll have an awkward customer like Fall in front of him. In the challenge between outsiders he will have to do well.
Sertac Sanli (Anadolu Efes Istanbul, 7.0 CR): riding the wave of his magical moment. Of course, even a slight dip could be considered a failure, but at that price he is The Best.
COACHES
Ergin Ataman (Anadolu Efes Istanbul, 9.3 CR): perhaps the only “safe” match of this matchday. Schiller’s Zalgiris is always a tough opponent to face. Ataman has often sent war messages to the entire League, both in mix zones and in the press. Considering also the “revenge” to be implemented on the media case of the fans present at the first leg, if you have the credits to do so, choose him!
Xavi Pascual (Zenit St Petersburg, 5.3 CR): match between Oly-Zenit are two teams in moderate difficulty. In order not to further risk falling into playoffs, we focus on the motivations of the Russians, even stronger on paper.
