Best players of Liga SudAmericana round 10 (by Hoops Agents)

Argentinian Franco Benitez (199-F-1994) had a very impressive game in the last round for league's leader San Jose and that's him to receive a Hoops Agents Player of the Week award for round 10.
The 28-year old forward had the game-high 16 points adding seven rebounds for San Jose in his team's victory, helping them to beat Sao Paulo (0-1), 92-87. In the team's last game Benitez had a remarkable 71.4% from 2-point range. It's his second year at San Jose and it's hard to imagine this team without him.

The second most remarkable performance in last round's games was young American power forward Tyrone Curnell (203-F/C-1988) of Sao Paulo. Curnell impressed basketball fans with 22 points, 4 rebounds and 7 assists. Bad luck as Sao Paulo lost that game 87-92 to group D's leader San Jose (#1, 1-0). Curnell is well-known by Sao Paulo fans and he already established his position as one of team's most reliable players. He belongs to the best scorers in the league with 22.0ppg (#2). He also recorded 7.0 assists per game.

The third best performed player last round was another San Jose's star - American Jeremiah Wood (200-C/F-1985, agency: Inception Sports). Wood scored 14 points. He was another key player of San Jose, helping his team with a 92-87 win against Sao Paulo. The season just started for Wood as he played only first game. But it already looks like he can be another team's leader.
