American Guard Jabiri Smith (198-G) had an amazing evening in the last round for league's best team Cutie Ovals Ojays and receives a Hoops Agents Player of the Week award for round 11.
He had a double-double of 27 points and 11 rebounds, while his team crushed Ottos (4-1) with 22-point margin 101-79. The game was between two of the league's top four teams. It allowed Cutie Ovals to take over top position in the Antiguan league. Cutie Ovals have a solid 4-1 record. In the team's last game Smith had a remarkable 53.8% from 2-point range. He just recently signed at Cutie Ovals, being already a very valuable addition to the team. Shorter University graduate has very impressive stats this year. Smith is in league's top in points (2nd best: 25.4ppg) and averages solid 2.2spg,52.9% FGP and 41.9% from behind 3-point line.

Second best performed player last round was Bryce Smith of JSC Red Hawks. He is a in his first season at Red Hawks. In the last game Smith recorded an impressive double-double of 20 points and 16 rebounds. It was enough for Red Hawks to edge slightly lower-ranked Slam (#7, 1-5) by 3 points 82-79. Red Hawks' 6th position in the standings has not changed. His team is not often considered as one of the league's best with a mere 2-4 record. Smith is one of the most experienced players at Red Hawks and has a reputation of one of team's most reliable players. He belongs to the best scorers in the league with 14.2ppg (#2). He also registered 10.8 boards per game.

Third place about best performers goes to center Pindo Drammeh (207-C-1996) of Ottos Full Throttle (#3). Drammeh scored 19 points and grabbed 17 rebounds (!!!). Despite Drammeh's great performance the Ottos lost 79-101 to #1 ranked Cutie Ovals. But his team cannot count on just a single player as he also needs help of the other teammates especially in such crucial game. Ottos had another "accident". It may be a crucial game and cause dropping from the group of top ranked teams. The record is still good, but 1st lost game is hopefully really an accident. Drammeh's teammates are also very good. That's why having such high stats is even more impressive. Drammeh has a great season in Antigua. After only 5 games, he made it on the list of the league's leaders in rebounds with 14.2rpg (3rd best). Drammeh attended one of camps at Eurobasket Summer League on his way to pro basketball.
