Experienced Sandra Beddawi (168-C-1992, agency: BIG) put on an amazing game in the last round for Sporting Bkennaya and that's her to receive a Hoops Agents Player of the Week award for round 17.
The 33-year old center had the game-high 30 points adding six rebounds and nine assists for Bkennaya in her team's victory, helping them to outclass Almtayleb (#9, 1-16) with 35-point margin 86-51. Bkennaya is placed at 6th position in Lebanese WLBL. Bkennaya is rather a weak team placed in lower part in the standings. They need more victories to improve their 6-10 record. In the team's last game Beddawi had a remarkable 76.9% from 2-point range. She turned to be Bkennaya's top player in her first season with the team. Beddawi has impressive league stats. She is in league's top in assists (9th best: 4.9apg) and averages solid 2.3spg.

The second most remarkable performance in last round's games was young Brazilian Rebecca Akl (170-G -1992) of second-ranked Sporting Al Riyadi Beirut. Akl impressed basketball fans with 36 points, 4 rebounds and 2 assists. Bad luck as Al Riyadi lost that game 86-94 to slightly higher-ranked Homentmen A. (#1, 16-1). It was definitely game of the week between two contenders to the title. Al Riyadi still maintains its place in the top 2 of the standings, even despite this loss. It was just her team's 2nd loss this season, while they won 15 other games. Akl is one of the most experienced players at Al Riyadi and has a reputation of one of team's most reliable players. She belongs to the best scorers in the league with 21.9ppg (#4). Her other stats are also decent: 7.3rpg and 6.3apg.

The third best performed player last round was another Bkennaya's star - Serena Hachem (F). Hachem showcased her all-around game by recording 21 points, 10 rebounds and 5 assists in the last round. She was another key player of Sporting Bkennaya, helping her team with a 86-51 easy win against the lower-ranked Almtayleb (#9, 1-16). The chances of Bkennaya not to end season at such low position in the league, however are less than slim as they have already lost 10 games, recording just six victories. With bigger assistance of her teammates, Hachem could try to bring Bkennaya's a little bit higher in the standings. Hachem has a very solid season. In 15 games in Lebanon she scored 6.7ppg.

4. Zena Elias (190-C-2000) of Azour - 19 points, 11 rebounds and 2 assists
