Argentinian La Liga Argentina round 43 best performance: Eduardo Gamboa (by Hoops Agents)

Shooting guard Eduardo Gamboa (189-SG-1984) put on an extraordinary performance in the last round for Pilar, receiving a Hoops Agents La Liga Argentina Player of the Week award for round 43.
The 38-year old player was the main contributor (30 points, four rebounds and seven assists) to his team's victory, helping them to beat GELP (#12, 13-17) 85-80. Pilar is placed at 7th position in Argentinian La Liga Argentina. Pilar is a typical solid league team placed somewhere in the middle or a little bit lower in the standings. They need more victories to improve their 14-16 record. In the team's last game Gamboa had a remarkable 54.5% from 2-point range. It was one of impressive evenings for him as usually he does not deliver so high stats. Eduardo Gamboa averages this season 11.9ppg and 4.4apg.

The second best player in last round's games was young Augusto Alonso (187-SG-1998, agency: BIG) of Libertad. Alonso had a very good evening with 26 points, 5 rebounds and 4 assists. Of course Libertad cruised to a 89-82 relatively comfortable win over the lower-ranked Jachal (#14, 10-19). The game was between two teams which are definitely not main contenders for the top position in Conferencia Norte. But Libertad managed to improve slightly their position in standings taking 9th place. His team is not often considered as one of the league's best with a mere 13-16 record. Alonso is a newcomer at Libertad, but is already one of team's top players. He belongs to the best scorers in the league with 14.4ppg (#1). His other stats are also decent: 5.0rpg and 3.2apg.

Third on the list of top players last round was another Pilar's star - Greek forward Tommy Demogerontas (203-F-1997). Demogerontas scored 23 points and grabbed ten rebounds. He was another key player of Pilar, helping his team with a 85-80 win against the lower-ranked GELP (#12, 13-17). Demogerontas has a very solid season. In 29 games in Argentina he scored 15.5ppg. He also has 6.7rpg and FGP: 53.3%.
