Guillent number one in Venezuela SPB for round 26 (by Hoops Agents)

International Point guard Heissler Guillent (186-PG-1986) had an amazing evening in the last round for Guaros, receiving a Hoops Agents Player of the Week award for round 26.
The 36-year old player got a double-double of 30 points and 10 assists, while his team beat Brillantes (#4, 13-7) 83-77. Guaros maintains the 3rd position in their group in Venezuelan SPB. They would have been even better if they hadn't lost a few games earlier this season. Guaros will need more victories to improve their 14-5 record. In the team's last game Guillent had a remarkable eight three-pointers out of 13 attempts. He just recently signed at Guaros, being already a very valuable addition to the team. Heissler Guillent has solid league stats. He is in league's top in assists (4th best: 5.6apg) and averages impressive 51.1% FGP.

The second best player in last round's games was young American Glen Rice Jr. (198-F-1991) of Brillantes. Rice Jr. had a very good evening with 27 points, 7 rebounds and 6 assists. Bad luck as Brillantes lost that game 77-83 to slightly higher-ranked Guaros (#3, 14-5). It was definitely game of the week between two contenders to the top position in Western Conference. Brillantes still maintains its place in the top 4 of the standings, even despite this loss. His team's 13-7 record is not bad at all. Rice Jr. is one of the most experienced players at Brillantes and has a reputation of one of team's most reliable players. He belongs to the best scorers in the league with 17.2ppg (#9). His other stats are also decent: 5.9rpg and 3.8apg.

Third on the list of top players last round was Canadian guard Taevaunn Prince (191-G-1991) of Diablos (#9). Prince showcased his all-around game by recording 20 points, five rebounds and five assists in the last round. Despite Prince's great performance Diablos lost 73-85 to the higher-ranked Gladiadores (#1, 18-2). But his team cannot count on just a single player as he also needs help of the other teammates. Diablos can only dream about fighting for top spots in Eastern Conference. They have rather bad season and 4-14 record places them close to the bottom of the standings. Prince has a very solid season. In 9 games in Venezuela he scored 14.1ppg.
