Experienced American Michael Qualls (197-G-1994) had a very impressive game in the last round for Borneo Hornbills and that's him to receive a Hoops Agents Player of the Week award for round 10.
The 30-year old guard had a double-double of 34 points and 10 rebounds, while his team was edged out by Simba Bogor (#1, 11-2) 88-86. Borneo maintains the 9th position in Indonesian IBL. Borneo is a typical solid league team placed somewhere in the middle or a little bit lower in the standings. But it was their 7th lost game this season out of 13 games. Qualls turned to be Borneo's top player in his first season with the team. The University of Arkansas graduate has very impressive stats this year. Qualls is in league's top in points (2nd best: 25.9ppg), assists (8th best: 5.2apg) and averages solid 2.2spg.

The second most remarkable performance in last round's games was young Dominican Rep. point guard Gelvis Solano (185-PG-1994) of Dewa United Banten. Solano impressed basketball fans with a triple-double of 23 points, 10 rebounds and 11 assists. Of course Dewa United cruised to a 81-72 relatively comfortable win over slightly lower-ranked Kesatria BS (#6, 9-4). Dewa United's 4th position in the standings has not changed. His team's 10-3 record is not bad at all. Solano is one of the most experienced players at Dewa United and has a reputation of one of team's most reliable players.

The third best performed player last round was American KJ McDaniels (197-F-1993) of Pelita Jaya Bakrie Jakarta (#3). McDaniels showcased his all-around game by recording 20 points, 12 rebounds (!!!) and 5 assists in the last round. Despite McDaniels' great performance the Pelita Jaya lost 88-94 to #1 ranked Simba Bogor. But his team cannot count on just a single player as he also needs help of the other teammates especially in such crucial game. The last thing Pelita Jaya needs is to lose another game like this one. They lose more and more distance to the top teams. Their record is 10 victories and 3 lost games. McDaniels has a great season in Indonesia. After 13 games, he made it on the list of the league's leaders in rebounds with 10.9rpg (8th best). He also has 2.1bpg and a FGP of 52.4%.

4. James Dickey III (208-F/C-1996) of Pelita Jaya - 20 points, 17 rebounds and 2 assists

The Player of the week is selected based on efficiency calculation, but also including game result, importance of the game, if played recorded double-double/triple-double, etc.
The efficiency formula is a combination of various formulas used by different basketball organizations/leagues. We got involved many basketball scouts and journalists to assure it's accuracy.
The formula: 1.5*PTS + 3*(REB+AST+ST+BL-TO) - 2*BSAG - 4*PF + 3*PFRV + 4*(2FGPM+3FGPM) + 1.5*FTM - 3*(2FGPA-2FGPM) - 3*(3FGPA-3FGPM) - (FTA-FTM)
