Rodrigo Acuna (198-PF-1995) had a very impressive game in the last round for La Union Colon and that's him to receive a Hoops Agents La Liga Argentina Player of the Week award for round 15.
The 30-year old power forward had a double-double of 27 points and 12 rebounds, while his team beat Quilmes (#1, 7-1) 90-83. La Union is placed at 4th position in Argentinian La Liga Argentina. They would have been even better if they did not have these two lost games earlier in Regular Season. La Union will need more victories to improve their 5-2 record. In the team's last game Acuna had a remarkable 60.0% from 2-point range. It's his second year at La Union and it's hard to imagine this team without him. Rodrigo Acuna averages this season 14.6ppg and 5.7rpg.

The second most remarkable performance in last round's games was point guard Santiago Bruno (180-PG) of Hindu Club de Cordoba. Bruno impressed basketball fans with 22 points, 2 rebounds and 5 assists. Bad luck as Hindu lost that game 79-87 to the higher-ranked Estudiantes T. (#10, 4-5). The game was between two teams which are definitely not main contenders for the top position in Conferencia Norte. But Hindu managed to improve slightly their position in standings taking 13th place. His team is not often considered as one of the league's best with a mere 3-6 record. Bruno is a newcomer at Hindu and it seems he did not have too much trouble to become one of team's leaders. He belongs to the best scorers in the league with 17.1ppg (#8). He also recorded 3.7 assists per game.

The third best performed player last round was American Zondrick Garrett (203-F/C-2002, agency: Elevate Sports Alliance) of Centro Deportivo Rivadavia de Mendoza (#9). Garrett scored 20 points and grabbed 6 rebounds. He was a key player of Rivadavia, leading his team to a 84-81 win against the higher-ranked San Isidro (#1, 7-2). Rivadavia needs these victories very badly if they think about getting closer to top teams in Conferencia Norte. Their record at this point is 4 victories and 3 lost games. Garrett has a very solid season. In 7 games in Argentina he scored 10.4ppg. He also has 4.6rpg, 1.3bpg and a FGP of 56.3%.

4. Luciano Silva (190-G/F-1996) of Racing A. - 22 points and 2 rebounds

The Player of the week is selected based on efficiency calculation, but also including game result, importance of the game, if played recorded double-double/triple-double, etc.
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)
