American James Dickey III (208-F/C-1996) put on an amazing game in the last round for league's second-best Pelita Jaya Bakrie Jakarta and that's him to receive a Hoops Agents Player of the Week award for round 2.
The 27-year old power forward had a double-double of 40 points and 17 rebounds, while his team beat Gorgan (1-1) 97-90. The game was between two of the league's top four teams. Pelita Jaya is placed at 2nd position in Basketball Champions League Asia. Pelita Jaya is a typical solid league team placed somewhere in the middle or a little bit lower in the standings. They need more victories to improve their 1-1 record. Dickey III just recently signed at Pelita Jaya and just after two games he already turned to be a very valuable addition to the team.

The second most remarkable performance in last round's games was another Pelita Jaya's star - young American forward Justin Brownlee (197-F-1988). Brownlee impressed basketball fans with a double-double of 32 points and 12 rebounds. Of course Pelita Jaya Bakrie Jakarta cruised to a 97-90 relatively comfortable win over Gorgan (1-1). The season is still at the very beginning and this victory may help a lot. Let's wait for the next round. Brownlee is one of the most experienced players at Pelita Jaya and similarly like James Dickey III has a reputation of one of team's most reliable players. He belongs to the best scorers in the league with 17.1ppg (#9). His other stats are also decent: 8.1rpg and 3.7apg. St. John's University alumni Brownlee played also at Eurobasket Summer League, which is considered top summer league for players who want to play basketball overseas.

The third best performed player last round was American Dwayne Evans (201-F-1992, agency: Pensack Sports) of top-ranked Hiroshima Dragonflies. Evans showcased his all-around game by recording 24 points, 8 rebounds and 4 assists in the last round. He was a key player of Dragonflies, leading his team to a 107-77 easy win against #1 ranked KCC Egis in a game of the week. Hiroshima D. has a very good start of the season. But there were just 2 games played, so it's too early to judge them at this stage. Evans also has a very good start of the season with very strong stats. Evans has a very solid season. In 2 games in Basketball Champions League Asia he scored 21.0ppg.
