34-year old center Ornela Bacchini (188-C-1989) had an amazing evening in the last round for D.Sporting and receives a Hoops Agents Player of the Week award for round 6 (Second Stage).
She had the game-high 16 points adding six rebounds and two assists for D.Sporting in her team's victory, helping them to beat 25 de Agosto (#5, 2-5) 60-54. D.Sporting maintains the 3rd position in Uruguayan Liga Femenina. They would have been even better if they hadn't lost a few games earlier in Second Stage. D.Sporting will need more victories to improve their 4-3 record. In the team's last game Bacchini had a remarkable 55.6% from 2-point range. It was one of impressive evenings for her as usually she does not deliver so high stats. Ornela Bacchini averages this season 10.1ppg and 7.8rpg.

Second best performed player last round was Selena Medrik (177-C-1992) of Lagomar. She is a center in her first season at Lagomar. In the last game Medrik recorded impressive double-double of 27 points and 10 rebounds. Of course she led Lagomar to another comfortable win outscoring Juventud (#10, 0-5) 101-45. Lagomar's 8th position in the standings has not changed. Her team lost just one game this Second Stage, while they won 4 matches. Medrik is a newcomer at Lagomar and quickly became one of team's most reliable players.

Third place about best performers goes to guard Jormelys Urbina (170-PG-1996) of 25 de Agosto (#5). Urbina scored 24 points and grabbed eight rebounds. Despite Urbina's great performance 25 de Agosto lost 54-60 to slightly higher-ranked D.Sporting (#3, 4-3). But her team cannot count on just a single player as she also needs help of the other teammates. 25 de Agosto can only dream about fighting for top spots in the league. They have rather bad season and 2-5 record places them close to the bottom of the standings. Urbina has a very solid season. In 2 games in Uruguay she scored 16.5ppg.

4. Natalia Quevedo (170-F-1998) of Lagomar - 20 points, 9 rebounds and 6 assists
