The Fantasy Challenge Podcast presents: The Barcelona dilemma

With [Javier Gancedo](https://eur04.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fx.com%2Fganchetto&data=05%7C02%7Cgeoff.gillingham%40euroleague.net%7Cd5538e3885f74e148dae08dd6ad32641%7C2b3d64f0329542979f1528435f0a62ce%7C1%7C0%7C638784177282492773%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJFbXB0eU1hcGkiOnRydWUsIlYiOiIwLjAuMDAwMCIsIlAiOiJXaW4zMiIsIkFOIjoiTWFpbCIsIldUIjoyfQ%3D%3D%7C0%7C%7C%7C&sdata=cqHvS%2Fo%2BuTedtCFtxT8V7ee%2FvopzX1kyjXZD0oLgatI%3D&reserved=0) out partying, co-hosts [Vasiliki Karamouza](https://x.com/karamouza_vas) and [Frankie Sachs](https://eur04.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fx.com%2FMrEuroleague&data=05%7C02%7Cgeoff.gillingham%40euroleague.net%7Cd5538e3885f74e148dae08dd6ad32641%7C2b3d64f0329542979f1528435f0a62ce%7C1%7C0%7C638784177282517913%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJFbXB0eU1hcGkiOnRydWUsIlYiOiIwLjAuMDAwMCIsIlAiOiJXaW4zMiIsIkFOIjoiTWFpbCIsIldUIjoyfQ%3D%3D%7C0%7C%7C%7C&sdata=jYTqaHWOmXpdpUJew4Ihsp615bj%2Fc8Hyn4kpubedxxM%3D&reserved=0) teamed up for Episode No. 25 of the EuroLeague Fantasy Challenge Podcast. The show starts with a bang as Vassiliki breaks some news and Frankie reveals the details of their private WhatsApp messages last week!

Then it's on to the Fantasy Challenge and detailed discussions about the merits of [FC Barcelona](https://www.euroleaguebasketball.net/en/euroleague/teams/fc-barcelona/roster/bar/?season=2024-25) players (Frankie has three on his team!) and [Fenerbahce Beko Istanbul](https://www.euroleaguebasketball.net/en/euroleague/teams/fenerbahce-beko-istanbul/roster/ulk/?season=2024-25) players ahead of their Wednesday night game. Vassiliki is stuck in a dilemma between [Kendrick Nunn](https://www.euroleaguebasketball.net/en/euroleague/players/kendrick-nunn/012774/) and [Mike James](https://www.euroleaguebasketball.net/en/euroleague/players/mike-james/005985/) and Frankie has mixed feelings about [Juancho Hernangomez](https://www.euroleaguebasketball.net/en/euroleague/players/juancho-hernangomez/012712/).

Vasiliki and Frankie go through their choices for Round 33 as well as their captains, including how many points their Wednesday and Thursday captains needs to score to before deciding whether to name [Sasha Vezenkov](https://www.euroleaguebasketball.net/en/euroleague/players/sasha-vezenkov/003469/) (in a matchup against [ALBA Berlin](https://www.euroleaguebasketball.net/en/euroleague/teams/alba-berlin/roster/ber/?season=2024-25)) as captain on Friday. Don’t get caught off-guard by the Wednesday showdown in Istanbul between Fenerbahce and Barcelona, so make sure to set your lineups before they tip off at 19:45 CET. And, as always, good luck, fantasy fans.

 

How many players from Barcelona are too many? Vasiliki Karamouza and Frankie Sachs chat about that and more in episode No. 25.
