On October 1, 2026, several player prop bets are being considered ahead of the games. All odds for these props were current as of 8:50 AM ET Thursday.
Here are the recommended bets:
Shavon Shields is projected to score over 9.5 points at -118 on FanDuel. Despite Fenerbahce's complicated rotation, this line appears low for a competitive matchup. Shields' playing time typically increases in closely contested games, suggesting he could exceed this point total.
TJ Shorts is also a focus, with an expectation of over 16.5 points at -116 on FanDuel. Shorts has performed well this season, and with expectations for a high-scoring game, betting the over could be worthwhile.
Alec Peters is set at over 11.5 points at -120 on FanDuel. After a strong showing in Round 1, his recent performances have been more modest. However, with limited shooting options on the Milan team, Peters is likely to play a crucial role against Maccabi.
Conversely, Jared Butler is anticipated to score under 11.5 points at -111 on FanDuel. While he has the potential for an explosive game, recent data indicates that Butler may struggle due to low usage and a tough matchup against Dubai, which allows few points to guards.
