It seems as if the 2025-26 EuroLeague season just started, but now we're on the brink of starting Round 6. It will be played from Wednesday to Friday, and we will deliver plenty of valuable options to either alter your lineups or -- with unlimited trades available -- assemble a new team altogether in the EuroLeague Fantasy Challenge.

If you have any questions or comments about strategy or the picks below, feel free to drop those at the bottom of this article or reach out on X via @RotoWireEuro.

Guard

Nadir Hifi, Paris Basketball (12.7 credits)

Hifi has seen his value increase with each passing Round, but that's not surprising considering how well he has been playing. The Paris star ranks seventh in the EuroLeague in fantasy points with 106.90 through his first five outings, and he's first among guards. Although he's getting pricey he's not the most expensive guard on the slate, so he's a strong bet to lead your lineup in Round 6.

Andreas Obst, FC Bayern Munich (8.3 credits)

Obst ranks as the 11th most productive guard in the league following the first five rounds of the competition, and the fact that he's doing that as a bench option is impressive. The Bayern star went scoreless in his first game of the season, but he has since posted four straight double-digit scoring performances, including a 31-point outburst in Round 2. Over his last four games, Obst is averaging 18.3 points, 2.8 rebounds, 2.0 assists, 1.3 steals and a whopping 4.5 triples per contest.

Tyler Dorsey, Olympiacos Piraeus (9.8 credits)

Another Round, another slate where Dorsey emerges as a valuable option. He's the 10th best guard in the league in total fantasy points and is one of only two top-10 guards -- along with the next player on the list -- with a price below double digits. Dorsey has scored at least 18 points in three of his five outings this season and is coming off an 18-point, five-rebound, five-assist performance in Round 5.

Devon Hall, Fenerbahce Beko Istanbul (9.7 credits)

Wade Baldwin IV brings more upside and is the Fenerbahce guard to target if you're in need of an anchor, but if you're looking for a lower-cost option to add depth, Hall is an excellent alternative. He has tallied 85.70 FPT across five games with averages of 12.6 points, 4.8 rebounds and 2.8 assists per contest.

Forward

Sasha Vezenkov, Olympiacos Piraeus (17.8 credits)

Yes, Vezenkov is the most expensive player on the slate, and someone who will take a big chunk of your budget if you select him. However, the star forward is one of the few players who's worth every credit. He leads all players in fantasy points per game with 27.2, has notched three double-doubles and is averaging an impressive 19.4 points, 10.0 rebounds, 1.4 assists and 1.6 threes per contest. Not much more needs to be said.

Jordan Nwora, Crvena Zvezda Meridianbet Belgrade (12.7 credits)

Nwora is markedly cheaper than Vezenkov, so he's still an expensive player who could easily lead a squad, but he's not a forward who carries such a prohibitive tag such. Through five appearances, Nwora is averaging a solid 19.8 points, 5.4 rebounds, 2.0 assists and 1.6 steals per contest. He has taken a major step forward in his second EuroLeague season and should continue to produce for an injury-depleted Red Star squad.

Timothe Luwawu-Cabarrot, Baskonia Vitoria-Gasteiz (9.8 credits)

Luwawu-Cabarrot enters Round 6 as a top-30 player in terms of FPT per game. The Baskonia star averages a solid 19.2 points, 2.6 rebounds, 2.0 assists and 1.2 steals per game. Luwawu-Cabarrot might not be a player to anchor a lineup, but he's a solid contributor to have if you've used most of your budget elsewhere, and he should remain busy with Baskonia now down several key players.

Isaac Bonga, Partizan Mozzart Bet Belgrade (9.7 credits)

Bonga fits in the same category as Luwawu-Cabarrot as a do-it-all forward who will cost under 10 credits and can deliver solid value. Bonga was quiet the past two Rounds, but it looks like Partizan will be down some key rotation pieces in Round 6, and he figures to capitalize in the playing time department.

Center

Dan Oturu, Hapoel IBI Tel Aviv (12.1 credits)

There are other valuable choices such as Daniel Theis, Nikola Milutinov and Mfiondu Kabengele, but Oturu is a solid option for fantasy managers who don't want to spend as much at the center spot. Oturu is averaging 14.2 points, 6.0 rebounds and a combined 1.6 steals-plus-blocks per game this season.

Omer Yurtseven, Panathinaikos AKTOR Athens (9.1 credits)

Among centers that have a value of 11.0 credits or fewer, Yurtseven is a solid option with Mathias Lessort still out and Richaun Holmes uncertain. Yurtseven has averaged 10.9 fantasy points while playing only 13 minutes per night, so if the playing time picks up in Round 6, the results could be fruitful.

Head Coach

Sergio Scariolo, Real Madrid (8.8 credits)

Real Madrid has not yet reached full speed, but they have one of the most talented rosters in the EuroLeague. Scariolo might be a bit expensive, and his club will be down a few players Wednesday, but he's still a good option against a Maccabi team that slots in 19th in the standings.
