Armenian-American Guard Andre Spight (190-G-1995, agency: Helping Ballers) had a very impressive game in the last round for second-ranked Obras Basket Buenos Aires, receiving a Hoops Agents Player of the Week award for round 10.
The 28-year old player was the main contributor (27 points, five rebounds) to his team's victory, helping them to outclass, the league's bottom-ranked team Concepcion (#3, 0-3) with 29-point margin 96-67. The game was between two of the league's top four teams. Obras maintains the 2nd position in Basketball Champions League Americas . Obras 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 2-2 record. In the team's last game Spight had a remarkable 57.1% from 2-point range and got three three-pointers out of 7 attempts. He turned to be Obras' top player in his first season with the team. Andre Spight averages just after two games 17.0ppg.

The second best player in last round's games was young Nestor Colmenares (200-C-1987, agency: Pro Sports) of league's leader Gladiadores de Anzoategui. Colmenares had a very good evening with a double-double of 13 points and 10 rebounds. Of course Gladiadores cruised to a 71-63 relatively comfortable win over slightly lower-ranked Real Esteli (#2, 2-2). It was definitely game of the week between two contenders to the title. Gladiadores consolidated its place in the very top position of the standings. His team has currently 2-1 record. Colmenares is a newcomer at Gladiadores and despite he is not a team leader yet, every game he becomes more reliable player. Hopefully performances like the last one will happen more often.

Third on the list of top players last round was American forward Emmitt Williams (198-F-1998, agency: BMS Sport Agency) of league's second-best Real Esteli. Williams scored 19 points and grabbed 7 rebounds. Despite Williams' great performance the Real Esteli lost 63-71 to #1 ranked Gladiadores. But his team cannot count on just a single player as he also needs help of the other teammates especially in such crucial game. The last thing Real Esteli needs is to lose another game like this one. They lose more and more distance to the top teams. Their record is 2 victories and 2 lost games. Williams has a great season in Basketball Champions League Americas. After only 2 games, he made it on the list of the league's leaders in points with 16.5ppg (best scorer) and rebounds with 7.0rpg (3rd best).
