Valarie Nesbitt put on an amazing game in the last round for top-ranked Elite Ballers, receiving a Hoops Agents Player of the Week award for round 7.
The player was the main contributor (15 points, eight rebounds and seven assists) to her team's victory, helping them to crush Sparks (#5, 1-6) with 23-point margin 86-63. It allowed Ballers to consolidate first place in the Bahamas NPWBA. They maintain a perfect record without any lost game in the league. It's already very far into the season and Ballers keeps a perfect 10-0 record. Nesbitt just recently signed at Ballers, being already a very valuable addition to the team. Valarie Nesbitt has solid league stats. She is in league's top in points (2nd best: 16.0ppg), rebounds (6th best: 9.3rpg) and averages impressive 4.5spg.

The second best player in last round's games was Traineia Greene of The Lady Sparks. Greene had a very good evening with a double-double of 18 points and 13 rebounds. Bad luck as Sparks lost that game 63-86 to league's leader Ballers (#1, 10-0). Sparks are still at the very bottom. 6 lost games are too many comparing to just one victory Sparks managed to get this year. Greene is one of the most experienced players at Sparks and has a reputation of one of team's most reliable players. She belongs to the best scorers in the league with 16.0ppg (#3). She also registered 11.0 boards per game.

Third on the list of top players last round was Johndell Minus of Foxxy Defenders (#3). Minus scored 17 points and grabbed 8 rebounds. Despite Minus' great performance the Defenders lost 49-57 to #4 ranked Flyers. But her team cannot count on just a single player as she also needs help of the other teammates especially in such crucial game. The chances of Defenders ranking at the top of the league, however are very questionable as they have already lost 8 games, recording just six victories. With bigger assistance of her teammates, Minus could help Defenders to bring them higher in the standings. Minus has a very solid season. In 4 games in Bahamas she scored 6.3ppg.
