Jonatan Torresi
Jonatan Torresi (190-G/F-94) had an amazing evening in the last round for Ameghino and that's him to receive a Hoops Agents La Liga Argentina Player of the Week award for round 31.
The 26-year old swingman had the game-high 26 points adding three rebounds and six assists for Ameghino in his team's victory, helping them to beat CAO Ceres (#12, 5-14) 92-79. Ameghino maintains the 7th position in their group in Argentinian La Liga Argentina. They would have been even better if they hadn't lost a few games earlier this season. Ameghino will need more victories to improve their 11-5 record. In the team's last game Torresi had a remarkable 66.7% from 2-point range. He turned to be Ameghino's top player in his first season with the team. Jonatan Torresi averages this season 14.4ppg.
The second most remarkable performance in last round's games was 29-year old guard Emiliano Correa (188-G-91) of Tiro Federal. Correa impressed basketball fans with 22 points, 5 rebounds and 3 assists. Of course he led Tiro Federal to another comfortable win outscoring slightly lower-ranked Dep Norte (#10, 6-10) 80-58. The game was between two teams which are definitely not main contenders for the top position in Conferencia Norte. Tiro Federal keeps 9th position. His team is not often considered as one of the league's best with a mere 8-10 record. Correa is a newcomer at Tiro Federal and it seems he did not have too much trouble to become one of team's leaders.
The third best performed player last round was Ramiro Trebucq (204-PF-95) of Dep Norte (#10). Trebucq scored 22 points and grabbed eight rebounds. Despite Trebucq's great performance Dep Norte lost 58-80 to slightly higher-ranked Tiro Federal (#9, 8-10). But his team cannot count on just a single player as he also needs help of the other teammates. The chances of Dep Norte not to end season at such low position in Conferencia Norte, however are less than slim as they have already lost 10 games, recording just six victories. With bigger assistance of his teammates, Trebucq could try to bring Dep Norte's a little bit higher in the standings. Trebucq has a very solid season. In 16 games in Argentina he scored 8.7ppg. He also has 4.8rpg and FGP: 52.4%.

The efficiency formula is a combination of various formulas used by different basketball organizations/leagues. We got involved many basketball scouts and journalists to assure it's accuracy.
The formula: 1.5*PTS + 3* (REB+AST+ST+BL-TO) - 2*BSAG - 4*PF + 3*PFRV + 4* (2FGPM+3FGPM) + 1.5*FTM - 3* (2FGPA-2FGPM) - 3* (3FGPA-3FGPM) - (FTA-FTM)
