Dominican Rep. Power forward Juan Rosario (203-F/C-1999, agency: BMS Sport Agency) had a great game in the last round for Motilones del Norte, receiving a Hoops Agents Player of the Week award for round 14.
The 24-year old player had a double-double of 28 points and 12 rebounds, while his team beat Toros Del Valle (#6, 4-9) 94-85. Motilones maintains the 4th position in Colombian Liga Wplay. They would have been even better if they hadn't lost a few games earlier this season. Motilones will need more victories to improve their 7-4 record. In the team's last game Rosario had a remarkable 62.5% from 2-point range. He just recently signed at Motilones, being already a very valuable addition to the team. Juan Rosario has solid league stats. He is in league's top in points (2nd best: 19.4ppg) and averages impressive 3.0bpg and 60.5% FGP.

The second best player in last round's games was American Jalen Brooks (196-G/F, agency: Players Group) of Corsarios Cartagena. Brooks had a very good evening with a double-double of 25 points and 12 rebounds. Bad luck as Corsarios lost that game 79-86 to the higher-ranked Carrib.Storm (#1, 11-2). Despite lost game Corsarios moved up to 5th position in the standings. His team is not often considered as one of the league's best with a mere 4-9 record. Brooks is one of the most experienced players at Corsarios and has a reputation of one of team's most reliable players. He belongs to the best scorers in the league with 17.8ppg (#5). He also registered 9.5 boards per game.

Third on the list of top players last round was Panamanian forward Josimar Ayarza (205-PF-1987) of Bucaros de Bucaramanga (#3). Ayarza scored 27 points and grabbed 7 rebounds. He was a key player of Bucaros, leading his team to a 79-68 win against the lower-ranked Toros Del Valle (#6, 4-9). Bucaros needs these victories very badly if they think about getting closer to top teams. Their record at this point is 10 victories and 4 lost games. Ayarza has a great season in Colombia. After 12 games, he made it on the list of the league's leaders in points with 17.2ppg (6th best).

The Player of the week is selected based on efficiency calculation, but also including game result, importance of the game, if played recorded double-double/triple-double, etc.
The efficiency formula is a combination of various formulas used by different basketball organizations/leagues. We got involved many basketball scouts and journalists to assure it's accuracy.
The formula: 1.5*PTS + 3*(REB+AST+ST+BL-TO) - 2*BSAG - 4*PF + 3*PFRV + 4*(2FGPM+3FGPM) + 1.5*FTM - 3*(2FGPA-2FGPM) - 3*(3FGPA-3FGPM) - (FTA-FTM)
