Argentinian Center Diego Romero (206-C-1982) put on an extraordinary performance in the last round for Carl A-Z, receiving a Hoops Agents Player of the Week award for round 13.
The 40-year old player had a double-double of 32 points and 20 rebounds, while his team beat Univ.Sucre (4-5) 91-78. Carl A-Z is placed at 7th position in Bolivian Libobasquet. Carl A-Z 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 4-5 record. In the team's last game Romero had a remarkable 75.0% from 2-point range and got four three-pointers out of 7 attempts. He just recently signed at Carl A-Z, being already a very valuable addition to the team. Former Florida State University star has very solid stats this year. Romero leads league in rebounds with 14.3rpg. Romero is in league's top in assists (5th best: 3.8apg) and averages impressive 1.4bpg,63.2% FGP and 54.5% from behind 3-point line.

The second best player in last round's games was young Serbian Milos Petkovic (204-F/C-1991) of San Simon. Petkovic had a very good evening with a double-double of 29 points and 14 rebounds. Of course he led San Simon to another comfortable win outscoring the lower-ranked Univ.Sucre (#8, 4-5) 85-60. This victory allowed San Simon to move up to 4th position in the standings. His team's 5-4 record is not bad at all. Petkovic is one of the most experienced players at San Simon and has a reputation of one of team's most reliable players. He belongs to the best scorers in the league with 21.1ppg (#2). He also registered 11.8 boards per game.

Third on the list of top players last round was American swingman Deondre Wade (194-G/F) of CAN Oruro (#5). Wade got into 30-points club by scoring 31 points in the last round. He went also for seventeen rebounds . Despite Wade's great performance CAN Oruro lost 62-85 to the higher-ranked Pichincha (#1, 7-2). But his team cannot count on just a single shooter as he also needs help of the other teammates. The last thing CAN Oruro needs is to lose another game like this one. They lose more and more distance to the top teams. Their record is 5 victories and 4 lost games. Wade has a great season in Bolivia. After only 9 games, he made it on the list of the league's leaders in rebounds with 9.2rpg (6th best).
