Famous' double-double lands him Hoops Agents Player of the Week award

34-year old Jarrid Famous (209-C/F-1988, agency: BIG) had an amazing evening in the last round for NSH and receives a Hoops Agents Player of the Week award for round 21.
He had a double-double of 33 points and 13 rebounds, while his team beat Pacific Caesar (#15, 2-9) 86-80. The game rather meaningless between the teams, which do not have any influence on top of the standings. NSH is placed at 10th position in Indonesian league. NSH is rather a weak team placed in lower part in the standings. They need more victories to improve their 4-7 record. Famous just recently signed at NSH, being already a very valuable addition to the team. University of South Florida graduate has very impressive stats this year. Famous is in league's top in points (7th best: 19.3ppg) and averages solid 52.8% FGP.

Second best performed player last round was Morakinyo Williams (209-C-1988) of Pacific Caesar. He is British center in his first season at Pacific Caesar. In the last game Williams recorded impressive double-double of 22 points and 12 rebounds. Bad luck as Pacific Caesar lost that game 80-86 to the higher-ranked NSH (#10, 4-7). The game was between two teams which are definitely not main contenders for the title. Pacific Caesar dropped in the standings to second-to-the-bottom (15th) position. 9 lost games are too many comparing to just two victories Pacific Caesar managed to get this year. Williams is one of the most experienced players at Pacific Caesar and has a reputation of one of team's most reliable players. He belongs to the best scorers in the league with 20.5ppg (#5). He also registered 13.7 boards per game.

Third place about best performers goes to forward Anthony Johnson (203-PF-1988) of Dewa United (#4). Johnson scored 21 points and grabbed eleven rebounds (!!!). He was a key player of Dewa United, leading his team to a 83-59 easy win against the lower-ranked WBS (#11, 3-7). Dewa United needs these victories very badly if they think about getting closer to top teams. Their record at this point is 9 victories and 3 lost games. Johnson has a great season in Indonesia. After 12 games, he made it on the list of the league's leaders in points with 12.7ppg (8th best).
