Robert Joseph (178-PG) had a very impressive game in the last round for league's leader Bahamas Univ. and that's him to receive a Interperformances Player of the Week award for round 10.
The playmaker had the game-high 32 points adding eight rebounds and six assists for Bahamas Univ. in his team's victory, helping them to crush Wolverines (#3, 4-5) with 23-point margin 98-75. It allowed Bahamas Univ. to jump to the first place in the Bahamas NPBA. Bahamas Univ. have a solid 5-1 record. In the team's last game Joseph had a remarkable eight three-pointers out of 13 attempts. He turned to be Bahamas Univ.'s top player in his first season with the team. Northern Oklahoma College Enid graduate has very impressive stats this year. Joseph is in league's top in points (5th best: 21.3ppg), assists (3rd best: 3.3apg) and averages solid 2.7spg.
The second most remarkable performance in last round's games was another Bahamas Univ.'s star - Kemsy Sylvestre. Sylvestre impressed basketball fans with a double-double of 24 points and 14 rebounds. Of course together with Joseph he helped Bahamas Univ. with another comfortable win outscoring slightly lower-ranked Wolverines (#3, 4-5) 98-75. It was definitely game of the week between two contenders to the top position in John Archer Division. Bahamas Univ. consolidated its place in the very top position of the standings. His team lost just one game this season, while they won 5 matches. Sylvestre is one of the most experienced players at Bahamas Univ. and similarly like Robert Joseph has a reputation of one of team's most reliable players.
The third best performed player last round was American Danrad Knowles (208-F-92) of second-ranked Rockets. Knowles scored 18 points and grabbed thirteen rebounds (!!!). He was a key player of Rockets, leading his team to a 81-70 win against Rebels (#6, 0-5). Rockets is closer and closer to top of the standings in Vince Ferguson Division. They will still need more victories. But 5-1 record is not that bad... Knowles has a very solid season. In 4 games in Bahamas he scored 10.8ppg.
