American Guard Augustus Stone (191-G-1997) had a very impressive game in the last round for Tangerang Hawks, receiving a Hoops Agents Player of the Week award for round 10.
The 26-year old player was the main contributor (39 points, nine rebounds and three assists) to his team's victory, helping them to outclass Pacific Caesar (#13, 1-8) with 31-point margin 102-71. The game rather meaningless between the teams, which do not have any influence on top of the standings. Tangerang is placed at 9th position in Indonesian IBL. Tangerang 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 4-4 record. In the team's last game Stone had a remarkable 63.6% from 2-point range. He just recently signed at Tangerang, being already a very valuable addition to the team. Former Saint Thomas University star has very solid stats this year. Stone is in league's top in points (4th best: 24.1ppg) and averages impressive 53.3% FGP.

The second best player in last round's games was young American Zoran Talley (198-SF-1994) of Amartha Hangtuah Jakarta. Talley had a very good evening with a double-double of 22 points and 12 assists. Bad luck as Hangtuah lost that game 84-91 to the higher-ranked Rans Pik (#6, 5-3). Hangtuah is still in a red zone at 10th spot in the standings. His team is not often considered as one of the league's best with a mere 3-5 record. Talley is one of the most experienced players at Hangtuah and has a reputation of one of team's most reliable players. He belongs to the best scorers in the league with 19.1ppg (#9). His other stats are also decent: 10.8rpg and 4.4apg. Former Iowa State University star Talley is a former Eurobasket Summer League player, which is considered top international summer league in the market.

Third on the list of top players last round was American Kentrell Barkley (194-SF-1996, agency: Haylett Sports) of Kesatria Bengawan Solo (#5). Barkley showcased his all-around game by recording 21 points, 13 rebounds (!!!) and 9 assists in the last round. He was a key player of Kesatria BS, leading his team to a 91-66 easy win against the lower-ranked Bima Perkasa (#12, 1-8). Barkley has a great season in Indonesia. After only 6 games, he made it on the list of the league's leaders in points with 25.7ppg (2nd best) and rebounds with 13.5rpg (3rd best). He also has 3.0spg and a FGP of 63.8%.
