Best EuroLeague Bets for Friday, Mar. 27
It was a rough Thursday with the mass unders, as we took a loss with that strategy for the first time. One off night will not shake me, though, and the train is full-speed ahead Friday.
All odds for EuroLeague player props current as of 8:45 AM ET Friday.
PICKS TO CLICK
Bonzie Colson Under 8.5 Points (-118 FanDuel)
Colson is a microwave scorer. If he comes out and drains his first corner three, we're cooked. But this number feels way too high for a player whose minutes floor sits between 12-to-17, and more toward the lower end of Tarik Biberovic returns.
TJ Shorts Under 6.5 Points (-115 FanDuel)
Jerian Grant could sit out and Shorts is electric when he's rolling, but this is another spot where the minutes floor is brutal. He has to be ultra-efficient in limited time while sharing the floor with high-usage creators like Kendrick Nunn, Kostas Sloukas, Nigel Hayes-Davis and sometimes even Cedi Osman.
This just does not look like a good fit for Shorts. I'm hoping he finds himself in a better situation next season.
Kameron Taylor 10+ Points (-102 DraftKings)
It took a lot to back a Valencia player given how they spread out the minutes, but I have a feeling someone is hitting a points ladder Friday, and I'm rolling with Taylor.
Jean Montero's absence helps our chances, but there are still plenty of other options and head coach Pedro Martinez usually rides the hot hand. I'm buying the dip on Taylor after some shaky shooting nights. Nobody on this team has truly safe playing time, but Taylor leads the way with an average around 23 minutes.
I like the matchup and think this could be one of Valencia's higher-scoring games. If you pass on Taylor, Brancou Badio would be the next man up.
