There will be only one (last) round of the Regular Season in LNB. Coincidentally all visitors won their games. Here is the last round review presented by Job Market.

Round 13 most important game was a victory of Felix Perez over 5th ranked Amambay 92-81 on Monday night. It ended at the same time the three-game winning streak of Amambay. Felix Perez made 22-of-28 free shots (78.6 percent) during the game. They looked well-organized offensively handing out 22 assists. 24 personal fouls committed by Amambay helped opponents get some easy free throw opportunities. Worth to mention a great performance of Argentinian power forward Juan Luis Abeiro (200-1988) who helped to win the game recording a double-double by scoring 24 points, 13 rebounds and 4 assists. Argentinian Fabio Gauto (190-2002) contributed with 20 points for the winners. Victor Da Costa answered with a double-double by scoring 16 points and 15 rebounds for Amambay. Amambay's coach Ramon Baez rotated ten players in this game, but that didn't help. Felix Perez have a solid series of three victories in a row. They maintain fourth place with 7-6 record. Amambay at the other side keeps the fifth position with seven games lost. Felix Perez's supporters look forward to an exciting derby game next round, where their team will face at home their local rival from Asuncion Ciudad N..
Another exciting game was a derby match between two teams from Asuncion: Olimpia K. (#2) and Ciudad N. (#7). Ciudad N. was crushed at home by 35 points 53-88 and even the advantage of their own court did not help. American guard Tyree Ihenacho (193-2002, college: Washington, agency: Helping Ballers) stepped up and scored 11 points, 6 rebounds and 4 assists for the winners and Sebastian Picton chipped in 10 points and 10 rebounds. At the losing side Argentinian Nelson Peralta (195-1992) responded with 11 points and 9 rebounds. The winner was already known earlier in the game, so both coaches allowed to play the bench players saving starting five for next games. Defending champion maintains second place with 11-2 record having just one point less than leader San Jose. Ciudad N. lost fifth consecutive game. They keep the seventh position with 11 games lost. Olimpia K. will play against bottom-ranked San Alfonso (#8) in the next round which should be theoretically another easy game. Ciudad N.'s supporters look forward to another derby game next round, where their team will travel locally in Asuncion to the arena Felix Perez.
Another exciting game was again a derby between two local teams from Asuncion: San Jose (#1) and Campo Alto (#6). Campo Alto was defeated at home 105-111 and even the fact of playing on their own court did not help. Ramon Sanchez nailed 20 points and 6 rebounds (on 7-of-9 shooting from the field) for the winning side. San Jose's coach Daniel Cano used a ten-player rotation which allowed the starters a little rest for the next games. Nicolas Reyero came up with 18 points, 5 rebounds and 6 assists for Campo Alto in the defeat. San Jose (11-1) have an impressive series of nine victories in a row. They maintain first place. Campo Alto lost third consecutive game. They keep the sixth position with nine games lost. San Jose will meet at home Amambay (#5) in the next round.
