Can SARAS and Fenerbahçe finally break the CURSE? | Nunn and Ataman DILEMMA | Fantasy podcast Frankie and Vasiliki return to navigate the chaos of Episode No. 22 The EuroLeague Fantasy Challenge Podcast is back with Episode No. 22, and after a week of unlimited trades, things get complicated fast.

Co‑hosts Frankie Sachs of EuroLeague.net and Sport24’s Vasiliki Karamouza return for a two‑person strategy session packed with tight decisions, bold recommendations, and just enough good‑natured arguing to keep longtime listeners smiling. Among this week’s hot topics? Maccabi’s changed frontcourt rotation. Frankie explains that the production ceiling is too big to ignore, as injuries have shoehorned some players into bigger roles, while Vasiliki initially challenges Frankie's math, but comes around.

From Maccabi to Monaco, the hosts shift to another rotation that has changed recently, with Elie Okobo and Matthew Strazel standing strong and outplaying their price since Mike James was hurt. Frankie issues a clear recommendation: Stay away from Kevin Punter. And Vasilki wonders about Nando De Colo's upside. Between matchup concerns, recent dips, and the opportunity cost of their price tags, the hosts outline why two of the biggest names in the league are simply not worth the investment. But it’s not all warnings.

The episode features a few strong endorsements. Among them are Matthias Lessort, Carlik Jones and Oded Kattash. One of the most entertaining segments arrives when Frankie poses the question listeners didn’t know they needed: Is Sarunas Jasikevicius using tricks he learned from Zeljko Obradovic in his recent Fenerbahce run? Vasiliki doesn’t dismiss it. And the result is a fascinating discussion about when to peak, the first-place curse and what Fenerbahce can do to avoid it.

As always, the episode wraps with Get Featured, Get Rewarded, where the hosts react to the wildest, boldest and most enthusiastic fan submissions of the week. With a three‑turn round on the horizon, the predictions are even spicier — and the reactions even funnier.

The double round is here - and this is where Fantasy seasons are won (or lost).

DubaiHoopsGuy joins Javi and Vasiliki to break it all down in a way that actually helps: who feels safe, where the real upside is, and which picks could quietly hurt your team.

From big calls around Vezenkov, Nunn and Musa, to sneaky value plays, injuries, and captain decisions - everything is on the table.

Two rounds, tons of variables, and no room for mistakes. If you’re trying to stay ahead (or catch up), this is the kind of episode you don’t skip.

Episode No. 21 of the EuroLeague Fantasy Challenge podcast featured a returning guest: Bill Papayfantis from The White Mambas. He joined EuroLeague.net’s Javier Gancedo and Sport24’s Vasiliki Karamouza to break down what worked in Round 30 and what to expect in a highly tactical Round 31, which features three turns and plenty of lineup possibilities. The White Mambas, backed by an outstanding Greek‑speaking fantasy community, are one of the most respected groups in the game. And the timing could not have been better. Bill returned just after the Greek derby between Panathinaikos AKTOR Athens and Olympiacos Piraeus.

As always, the episode opens with a look back at Round 30. Vasiliki expresses concern about AS Monaco head coach Vassilis Spanoulis, while Bill explains why Saben Lee of Anadolu Efes Istanbul – one of the more popular fantasy picks – may be a question mark in Round 31. The conversation then shifted to injuries, including whether Sasha Vezenkov of Olympiacos – described by Bill as “the fantasy GOAT” – will return to action. If he does, many lineups across the game will change immediately to fit him in.

Bill, Vasiliki and Javi then revealed their lineups. Bill and Vasiliki went all‑in on Elijah Bryant as a potential T3 option if things break unexpectedly. Javi was the only one to select a player from T1, choosing Virtus Bologna center Bruno Fernando as his primary captain ahead of Wednesday’s matchup with Partizan Mozzart Bet Belgrade. Javi also led a fun segment with a pack of Panini EuroLeague Official Collection cards, and all three hosts broke down their captain and coach strategies — with Vasiliki, as usual, taking a different approach than everyone else.

The episode was packed with insights, laughter and strong opinions. Episode No. 21 should give fantasy managers both entertainment and plenty to think about. Don’t miss this week’s podcast. Listen to their advice and use it wisely to build your best lineup in the EuroLeague Fantasy Challenge!

Episode 20 of the EuroLeague Fantasy Challenge Podcast brings a special edition featuring Lazar Hristov of ‪Fantasy Masteri, one of the winners of the “Be Our Guest” campaign and the voice behind one of the fastest-growing fantasy communities in the game.

Joined by Javier Gancedo and Vasiliki Karamouza, the trio reviews Round 29 before turning full focus to the Greek derby between Olympiacos Piraeus and Panathinaikos AKTOR Athens - a matchup that could reshape Round 30 strategies.

With Sasha Vezenkov and Kendrick Nunn expected to return, and question marks surrounding Nikola Milutinov and Mathias Lessort, the fantasy landscape remains fluid. The discussion also covers the potential impact of Shane Larkin, rotation questions at Baskonia, and a Championship Game rematch between Fenerbahce Beko Istanbul and AS Monaco.

Head coach debates, injury updates, risk assessment and must-watch games of the round - this episode delivers strategic insight with competitive edge ahead of Round 30.

This week’s EuroLeague Fantasy Challenge Podcast is built around one question that every manager is asking: To Hayes-Davis or not to Hayes-Davis? Nigel Hayes-Davis arrives with instant hype after a cup MVP performance and clear “only way is up” talk, but there’s also that classic fantasy fear: when something looks too perfect, it sometimes isn’t. The panel breaks down why the matchup vs Paris could be ideal (fast pace, lots of possessions, a chance to “feed him” and get him comfortable), while also acknowledging the long-term uncertainty on a roster that still has Kendrick Nunn and plenty of mouths to feed.

The episode also zooms out to the cup week effect: which teams might suffer a letdown after emotional title runs and heavy schedules, and which teams benefit from rest. Baskonia is flagged as a potential trap after beating Madrid and Barcelona, while Valencia comes in motivated after a painful cup exit. On the flip side, there’s real intrigue around teams that didn’t play cups and had time to reset - most notably Dubai, who are positioned as a “perfect storm” fantasy spot at home against ASVEL, especially when you factor in rest, preparation time, and the coaching value angle.

Injuries, as always, can flip the entire round. Sasha Vezenkov’s back issue is treated as a major risk at a premium price - the kind of situation that can destroy a fantasy week if he’s limited or exits early. If Vezenkov sits, the message is simple: hello, Alec Peters, because high minutes usually equal high production. Add Milutinov’s thumb problem into the mix, and suddenly, managers are forced to consider secondary bigs like Donta Hall or Tyreek Jones, depending on availability and rotations.

Finally, the show hits several key fantasy narratives: Monaco’s momentum swing led by Mike James (playmaking included) and a strong cup from Daniel Theis; the debate over Trent Forrest as a must-buy vs his history of mixing monster games with duds; and how Fenerbahçe may adjust in the frontcourt without Melli, likely leaning even more into guard-heavy creation. It’s a round full of traps, pivots, and upside-down - exactly the kind of week that rewards managers who stay disciplined and react faster than the field.

The EuroLeague Fantasy Challenge Podcast is back with Episode 18, delivering a data-driven deep dive into Round 28. Javier Gancedo and Frankie Sachs are joined once again by Sport24’s Vasiliki Karamouza, with special guests Nikos Tsolakis and Prodromos Boutis from the Greek-language Shot Clock Podcast, bringing analytics, trends and strong opinions to the table. The expanded panel tackles the biggest fantasy questions of the week, starting with the ongoing debate around centers and how recent form and price swings are reshaping the position. The conversation also turns to the ever-talked-about head-coach slot and the mystery of Vasiliki’s supposed coach jinx, plus standout players on the rise like Jimmy Clark and Andreas Obst. Team-wide trends at Maccabi and Milan come under the microscope, before the crew wraps up with a full injury update to help managers plan their lineups. Packed with tactical insight, smart analysis and trademark Fantasy Challenge banter, this episode has everything you need to get ready for the round ahead. Tune in and level up your fantasy game.
