Fantasy Sleepers are players who are not among the obvious options but can often deliver performances well above expectations. We can call them hidden gems, and they represent true value for fantasy managers.
Picking players like these is often what separates an average fantasy player from a serious one. In our team previews, we highlighted sleepers for every team, and in the following article, we will list our top picks.
1. Kenneth Faried – Center – 9.5 Credits
Kenneth Faried could emerge as one of the premier differential picks at the start of the EuroLeague season. Outside of a tough Round 1 matchup against Olympiacos, Baskonia benefits from a highly favorable opening schedule. More importantly, Faried currently stands as the roster’s only established pure center.
If Baskonia refrains from adding another frontcourt piece before tip-off, expect “The Manimal” to push past the 30-minute mark per game. Fantasy managers will remember his explosive start to a stint with Panathinaikos, where he proved his physical paint dominance by posting a staggering 22.66 average PIR over his first three appearances.
Keeping a close eye on Baskonia’s roster moves prior to Round 1 is crucial. At an attractive price tag of just 9.5 credits, snatching up Faried early could yield massive early-season fantasy returns.
2. Both Gach – Forward – 8.7 Credits
Both Gach joined Asvel from Bourg over the summer, bringing an explosive and versatile skill set to the EuroLeague stage. The South Sudanese international stands out as a highly intriguing forward. He is far more than just a typical perimeter scorer, regularly impacting game flow by securing output in other statistical categories too.
Because Gach is making his debut in Europe’s top competition under a new coaching setup, lead by Tony Parker, Fantasy managers would be wise to exercise early-season patience. Monitoring his actual minutes and usage rate over the first few rounds will be essential before locking him into active lineups.
However, his ceiling is exceptionally high. Coming off a dominant EuroCup campaign with Bourg where he produced an eye-catching average PIR of 15.3, his talent is proven. At an attractive price of just 8.7 credits, Gach represents a good mid-tier sleeper option capable of delivering massive value once fully integrated into Asvel’s main rotation.
3. Rokas Jokubaitis – Guard – 8.6 Credits
Rokas Jokubaitis missed the entirety of last season after suffering a severe knee injury at 2025 EuroBasket. The timing was particularly cruel, coming right on the heels of a series of phenomenal performances where he led the Lithuanian national team with elite playmaking and scoring – averaging a staggering 17.3 points and 8.5 assists per game.
The setback derailed what was shaping up to be a massive breakout campaign, delaying his chance to show why he has long been regarded as one of Europe’s premier young backcourt talents.
Now healthy and returning to the court, the hope is that Jokubaitis can put the injury behind him and replicate his dominant EuroBasket form. If he recaptures that level, he will instantly unlock a completely new dynamic for Bayern’s offense with his scoring, pick-and-roll orchestration, and court vision. Available at a very reasonable 8.6 credits, Jokubaitis carries immense upside for Fantasy managers willing to gamble on his undeniable ceiling.
4. Damion Baugh – Guard – 8.4 Credits
Among the top sleeper options for the upcoming season, another Baskonia player demands inclusion. Baskonia assets are priced modestly across the board and carry immense upside due to the team’s high-tempo style. This time, the spotlight turns to Damion Baugh.
Baugh is set to make his European debut after gaining professional experience across various NBA and G League stints. He is a dynamic backcourt force who brings much more than standard scoring and playmaking; his relentless rebounding makes him an asset for the guard position, yielding prime multi-category fantasy value.
At a budget-friendly cost of 8.4 credits, Baugh’s price tag severely underestimates his ceiling. Given his all-around production and the favorable system in Vitoria, his fantasy valuation will likely rise sharply as the season progresses. Snagging him early could provide a massive return on investment.
5. Tai Odiase – Center – 6.3 Credits
Tai Odiase made his initial impression in Hapoel Tel Aviv team preview, and he remains a player worth watching closely heading into the new season. Following Jonathan Motley’s departure to Crvena Zvezda, frontcourt depth at Hapoel has thinned significantly, clearing a clear path for Odiase to secure a steady role as Dan Oturu’s primary backup at center.
If you find yourself facing budget constraints when filling out your frontcourt, finding a higher-upside alternative at this price range will be a tough task. Odiase is in line for a reliable 15 minutes of action per night. That floor should comfortably allow him to produce a consistent average PIR around the double-digit mark, steadily generating credit gains for fantasy managers as his valuation adjusts upward.
Priced at an incredibly cheap 6.3 credits, Odiase serves as an ideal budget-filler who offers solid stability and cost-effective value from day one.
