Former international Center Dejun Han (215-C-89) put on an extraordinary performance in the last round for top-ranked Liaoning FL, receiving a Interperformances Player of the Week award for round 33. The 29-year old player had a double-double of 37 points and 13 rebounds, while his team edged out Jilin NE T. (#12, 15-17) 153-150. It allowed Liaoning FL to consolidate first place in the Chinese CBA. Liaoning FL have a solid 29-4 record. Han has many years of experience at Liaoning FL, through which he has constantly improved. Dejun Han averages this season 13.6ppg and 9.1rpg.
The second best player in last round's games was 27-year old American Jamaal Franklin (196-SG-91, agency: Slash Sports) of Sichuan BW. Franklin had a very good evening with a triple-double of 28 points, 10 rebounds and 10 assists. Bad luck as Sichuan BW lost that game 91-111 to the higher-ranked Xinjiang FT (#6, 21-11). Sichuan BW is still second from the bottom in the standings. 25 lost games are too many comparing to just seven victories Sichuan BW managed to get this year. Franklin is well-known at Sichuan BW and is a proven leader in his second season with the team. He belongs to the best scorers in the league with 32.4ppg (#9). His other stats are also decent: 10.0rpg and 7.7apg.
Third on the list of top players last round was American guard Marcus Denmon (191-G-90, agency: BeoBasket) of Zhejiang Ch. (#10). Denmon got into 30-points club by scoring 33 points in the last round. He went also for six rebounds and nine assists. He was a key player of Zhejiang Ch., leading his team to a 107-97 win against the lower-ranked Qingdao E. (#15, 10-23). The chances of Zhejiang Ch. ranking at the top of the league, however are very questionable as they have already lost 17 games, recording just sixteen victories. With bigger assistance of his teammates, Denmon could help Zhejiang Ch. to bring them higher in the standings. Denmon has a great season in China. After 20 games, he made it on the list of the league's leaders in points with 36.9ppg (2nd best). He also has FGP: 52.8% and 3PT: 41.3%.
Other top performing players last week: 4. Dakari Johnson (213-C/F-95) of Qingdao E. - 27 points, 16 rebounds and 2 assists 5. Justin Hamilton (213-C-90) of Beijing Ducks - 27 points, 8 rebounds and 2 assists 6. Maciej Lampe (211-C/F-85) of Jilin NE T. - 28 points, 17 rebounds and 4 assists 7.
