DraftKings EuroLeague DFS Lineup Picks for 4/28/21 - Daily Fantasy Basketball Advice

Two spots in the EuroLeague Final Four could be clinched today since both Milan and CSKA took the first two games of their respective series. Real Madrid was down double digits halfway through the fourth quarter yesterday and mounted a huge comeback to steal a game from Efes and stay alive. Can Munich and Fenerbahce stay alive as well? Barcelona tries to become just the second EuroLeague team to make the Final Four after dropping the playoff opener at home. This is going to be a fun one since the EuroLeague made three of the four series on Wednesday-Friday this week.

Jan Vesely might be back for Game 3. Fenerbahce needs him, so I think he'll play. That said, the team walked back the confirmation they made last week that he will start Game 3. He is now officially questionable again. We do know that Nikola Milutinov is out and Mike James is back in the NBA with the Brooklyn Nets. Mateusz Ponitka, Nick Weiler-Babb, Arturas Gudaitis, Joel Bolomboy, Nihad Dedovic, and Ali Muhammed have all been ruled out already. The only news we are waiting on is the status of Vesely. I'm guessing that he'll be active, but that his minutes will also be limited to around half the game. He's not worth his price if that is the case.

In this article, I will be providing you with my daily fantasy EuroLeague lineup picks for DraftKings on 4/28/21. I’ll be providing multiple player suggestions for players at guard, forward, and center, aiming to highlight one option apiece at the high, middle, and lower end of the salary scale. Good luck, RotoBallers.

DraftKings EuroLeague DFS Guards

Wade Baldwin, Munich  ($10,800)

You live by the Baldwin, you die by the Baldwin. He really hurt us in Game 1 with an uninspiring 15.5 DraftKings point effort. He rebounded in Game 2 and helped in takedowns with a 41 DraftKings point explosion. Which Baldwin will we get here? I'm leaning towards the Game 2 version. Foul trouble limited him to 18 minutes in Game 1. He played all but two minutes in Game 2. Add in the fact that Baldwin was markedly better (4 DraftKings points per game) at home this year, and I have no problem anchoring my lineup with him.

Daniel Hackett, CSKA ($8,200)

Hackett flipped a switch when the playoffs started. He put up 71.25 DraftKings points in the first two games of this series after only clearing 30 DraftKings points once since the end of January. This is Hackett's team now and they are cruising towards their ninth consecutive EuroLeague Final Four berth. This is the early tip today, so CSKA could be the first time to punch their ticket to Koln. If they do, Hackett will be the reason why. There's no reason to think he slows down now.

K.C. Rivers, St. Petersburg ($5,500)

St. Petersburg sees something that they like with Rivers in this series. His 58 minutes played in the first two games of this series were more than he played in the last three games of the regular season combined. River has 35.5 DraftKings points in this series. He doesn't have a lot of upside, but he is cheap enough that you can fit in more stars without giving yourself a possible single-digit score. The minutes are there for Rivers, and he has a solid floor for the price.

Also consider: Kevin Pangos, St. Petersburg ($10,100); Marko Gurduric, Fenerbahce ($8,300); Lorenzo Brown, Fenerbahce ($6,700); Dennis Seeley, Munich ($5,200)

DraftKings EuroLeague DFS Forwards

Tornike Shengelia, CSKA ($9,500)

Barcelona won Game 2, but they did it the way that they have all season: with no one star. It's a lot of good players putting up average scores. They are like the Miami Heat in the NBA. Great team, but horrible for DFS because no one truly has big games. I'll concentrate my DFS dollars on guys who either carry the team or are big parts of it. Shengelia was a huge factor in Game 2 after a passive Game 1. Chalk that up to Shengelia playing for the first time in three weeks in Game 1. The rust is off. He's worth paying for again against a Fenerbahce team that didn't threaten to take either game in Moscow.

Zach Leday, Milan ($9,000)

Leday has been consistently good for the entire month of April. He has double digit actual points and over 20 DraftKings points in five straight games now. We probably saw a ceiling game out of Leday in Game 1 when he hit the game-winning layup to complete a monster comeback against Munich. Milan features a rather balanced attack as well, but Leday has proven that he is an integral and consistent part of the offense. His ceiling isn't as high as others in his range, but the floor is much more stable.

Tarik Black, St. Petersburg ($6,600)

Zenit has decided that running Black against Barcelona's size is a good idea on both ends of the court. Black was sort of a defensive specialist in his years in the NBA, and his time in Europe isn't a lot different. Black is an efficient shooter, proficient rebounder, and elite shot blocker. All of that translates well to DFS. He does need to stay out of foul trouble to truly reach his potential though. He only played 15 minutes in Game 1 due to foul trouble and he fouled out in Game 2. He did manage 22.75 DraftKings points in 27 minutes before being shown the door though. That's the kind out output we're looking for.

Also consider: Brandon Davies, Barcelona ($9,100); Will Thomas, St. Petersburg ($7,700); Kyle O'Quinn, Fenerbahce ($7,300); James Gist, Munich ($5,300)
