Martinez's 32-point game gives him Hoops Agents Player of the Week award

28-year old swingman Matias Martinez (195-G/F-1994) had a great game in the last round for Atomico and receives a Hoops Agents Player of the Week award for round 19.
He had the game-high 32 points adding six rebounds and two assists for Atomico in his team's victory, helping them to beat La Salle (#6, 8-8) 72-66. Atomico maintains the 3rd position in Bolivian league. They would have been even better if they hadn't lost a few games earlier this season. Atomico will need more victories to improve their 11-5 record. In the team's last game Martinez had a remarkable 71.4% from 2-point range. He turned to be Atomico's top player in his first season with the team. Matias Martinez averages this season 26.8ppg, 9.0rpg and 4.8apg.

Second best performed player last round was Martin Ochoa of La Salle. He is a in his first season at La Salle. In the last game Ochoa recorded impressive double-double of 11 points and 14 rebounds. Bad luck as La Salle lost that game 66-72 to the higher-ranked Atomico (#3, 11-5). La Salle managed to keep the same 6th spot in the standings. His team lost some distance to top teams. But 8-8 record is not bad and everything may still change. Ochoa is a newcomer at La Salle and quickly became one of team's most reliable players.

Third place about best performers goes to another Atomico's star - forward Rodrigo Acuna (198-PF-1995). Acuna scored 11 points and grabbed ten rebounds. He was another key player of Atomico, helping his team with a 72-66 win against the lower-ranked La Salle (#6, 8-8). Atomico needs these victories very badly if they think about getting closer to top teams. Their record at this point is 11 victories and 5 lost games. Acuna has a great season in Bolivia. After 16 games, he made it on the list of the league's leaders in points with 19.4ppg (7th best). He also has 1.3bpg and FGP: 70.1%.
