THE SLATE
We're going with an abridged version of the article today, but will stick to the normal process.
The over/unders for all six games are within six points of each other, so focus more on injury situations than expected pace on the final day of Round 20.
Key Injuries: Nikola Mirotic (BAR), Brandon Davies (BAR), Victor Claver (BAR), Will Clyburn (CSK), Daniel Hackett (CSK)
Best Bets for Success
- Mike James - averaging 8.1 more points on DraftKings than anyone else on the slate.
- Nikola Milutinov - recorded a double-double Wednesday and in six of the last seven Rounds.
- Nick Calathes - CSKA ranks third-worst in assists allowed to opposing guards.
DFS Darlings: Pierre Oriola
Panathinaikos OPAP Athens at Fenerbahce Beko Istanbul
Key Injuries: Ioannis Papapetrou (PAN), Howard Sant-Roos (PAN), Danilo Barthel (ULK), Ali Muhammed (ULK)

DFS Darlings: Lorenzo Brown
Zalgiris Kaunas at Zenit Saint Petersburg
Key Injuries: Patricio Garino (ZAL), Steve Vasturia (ZAL), Alex Poythress (DYR)
Best Bets for Success
- Kevin Pangos/Arturas Gudaitis - Pangos has been Zenit's best player this season, but Gudaitis was the past two Rounds.

DFS Darlings: Austin Hollins
LDLC ASVEL at Olympiacos Piraeus
Key Injuries: William Howard (ASV), Amine Noua (ASV), Kostas Papanikolaou (OLY), Aaron Harrison (OLY)

Real Madrid at FC Bayern Munich
Key Injuries: Anthony Randolph (MAD), Sergio Llull (MAD), Rudy Fernandez (MAD), Nihad Dedovic (MUN), Zan Sisko (MUN)
Best Bets for Success
- Walter Tavares - Will no doubt be focused on a better showing after having his worst game of the season last time these sides matched up.
- Wade Baldwin - With Jalen Reynolds contending with Tavares and Vladimir Lucic playing in just his third game since returning, Baldwin -- under the $9,000-mark on DraftKings gets the top spot.
DFS Darlings: Alex Tyus, D.J. Seeley
Crvena Zvezda mts Belgrade at Valencia Basket
Key Injuries: Jordan Loyd (RED), Landry Nnoko (RED), Marko Simonovic (RED), Bojan Dubljevic (PAM), Vanja Marinkovic (PAM)
Best Bets for Success
- Johnny O'Bryant - Valencia is giving up the most points and rebounds to players at the forward positions.
- Mike Tobey - Red Star has done a good job against centers, but they are a bit short-handed in the post and Dubljevic remains sidelined.
