24-year old American forward Victor Hart (203-F-2001) put on an extraordinary performance in the last round for Shinagawa City Basketball Club and receives a Hoops Agents B3 League Player of the Week award for round 53.
He had a double-double of 34 points and 12 rebounds, while his team lost the game against Yamaguchi (#13, 13-37) 76-84. The game rather meaningless between the teams, which do not have any influence on top of the standings. Shinagawa moved-up to the 14th position in Japanese B3 League. Too late to salvage the team, which is currently ranked such low. They already lost 38 games and recorded just twelve victories. In the team's last game Hart had a remarkable 75.0% from 2-point range. He turned to be Shinagawa's top player in his first season with the team. University of Southern Mississippi graduate has very impressive stats this year. Hart is league's best scorer averaging so far 22.1ppg. Hart is in league's top in rebounds (5th best: 11.3rpg) and averages solid 1.1bpg,2.2spg and 56.1% FGP.

Second best performed player last round was Jediael Cordilia (206-F-2002) of Kanazawa Samuraiz. He is Dutch forward in his first season at Kanazawa. In the last game Cordilia recorded an impressive double-double of 26 points and 13 rebounds. Of course he led Samuraiz to another comfortable win outscoring the higher-ranked Kagawa FA (#1, 42-8) 94-64. This victory allowed Kanazawa to move up to 8th position in the standings. His team lost some distance to top teams. But a 26-24 record is not bad and everything may still change. Cordilia is a newcomer at Kanazawa and quickly became one of team's most reliable players.

Third place about best performers goes to center Jacob Polakovich (208-C-2000) of Shanan United (#11). Polakovich scored 26 points and grabbed 12 rebounds (!!!). Despite Polakovich's great performance the United lost 85-86 to slightly lower-ranked Tokyo Z (#12, 16-34). But his team cannot count on just a single shooter as he also needs help of the other teammates. The chances of Shanan Utd not to end season at such low position in the league, however are less than slim as they have already lost 32 games, recording just eighteen victories. With bigger assistance of his teammates, Polakovich could try to bring Shanan Utd's a little bit higher in the standings. Polakovich has individually a great season in Japan. After 50 games, he made it on the list of the league's leaders in points with 18.1ppg (6th best) and rebounds with 12.2rpg (3rd best).
