Best EuroLeague Bets for Wednesday, Oct. 1

All odds for EuroLeague player props current as of 7:00 AM ET Wednesday.

PICKS TO CLICK

Nikola Mirotic Over 1.5 Threes Made (+100 bet365)

We do not dabble in three-point props often, but this one got my attention. Mirotic will appear in his first EuroLeague game with Monaco alongside the best set of point guards he has has played with in a very long time. Mirotic will not necessarily be the focal point for the Zalgiris defense -- a unit that likes to pack the paint -- and his teammates should have ample opportunities to set him up for triples.

Omari Moore Over 20.5 Points+Rebounds+Assists (-110 bet365)

Moore had by far the most usage on his club during the Spanish Supercup, and if the playing time holds true I imagine he will get around 23 minutes per night. This matchup is ripe for the taking, as both Valencia and ASVEL generally love playing as fast as possible.

Mbaye Ndiaye Over 4.5 Rebounds (+110 FanDuel)

With Neal Sako, Tarik Black and Ben Bentil no longer around, Ndiaye has a chance to see a lot of minutes in ASVEL's frontcourt. Bodian Massa was brought in to supplement the center spot, but I think this is still a number we can capitalize on. We were early on Sako in a similar spot last season and it paid dividends. You can ladder this responsibly if offered.

Nadir Hifi 20+ Points (+170 DraftKings)

Fenerbahce is an elite team and they are the reigning champions primarily because of their work on the defensive end. However, with the departure of TJ Shorts there is a lot of usage open on the Paris roster, and I have noticed that new head coach Francesco Tabellini has no issue with Hifi getting up a lot of shots. I think Hifi could get 18 or more field goal attempts -- with around half of those being from long range -- so I'm playing the numbers. With that said, I don't like the ladder potential here because of the potential for a poor shooting night. For what it's worth, I did seek out three assists or more for Hifi because he has been facilitating more, but I could not find it. If you can, I wouldn't mind a play as long as it's in the +200 range.
