29-year old American forward Jacob Lampkin (206-F-1996) put on an amazing game in the last round for league's best team Kagawa Five Arrows and receives a Hoops Agents B3 League Player of the Week award for round 47.
He had a double-double of 20 points and 14 rebounds, while his team beat Tokyo Z (#12, 15-29) 69-59. It allowed Five Arrows to consolidate first place in the Japanese B3 League. Kagawa have a solid 37-7 record. In the team's last game Lampkin had a remarkable 70.0% from 2-point range. He turned to be Five Arrows's top player in his first season with the team. Jacob Lampkin averages this season 13.6ppg and 7.7rpg.

Second best performed player last round was Rokas Gustys (206-F/C-1994) of Tachikawa Dice. He is Lithuanian forward in his first season at Tachikawa. In the last game Gustys recorded an impressive double-double of 17 points and 16 rebounds. Of course Dice cruised to a 106-94 relatively comfortable win over the lower-ranked Shanan Utd (#11, 17-27). This victory allowed Tachikawa to move up to 6th position in the standings. His team lost some distance to top teams. But a 24-20 record is not bad and everything may still change. Gustys is a newcomer at Tachikawa and quickly became one of team's most reliable players.

Third place about best performers goes to another Tachikawa's star - swingman LJ Peak (196-F/G-1996). Peak scored 29 points and passed 5 assists. He was another key player of Tachikawa Dice, helping his team with a 106-94 win against the lower-ranked Shanan Utd (#11, 17-27). Dice needs these victories very badly if they think about getting closer to top teams. Their record at this point is 24 victories and 20 lost games. Peak has a great season in Japan. After 44 games, he made it on the list of the league's leaders in points with 21.6ppg (2nd best). He also has a FGP of 62.6% and 3PT: 41.9%.

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)
