Haitian Jeantal Cylla (201-F-1996) put on an amazing game in the last round for league's second-best Selenge Bodons Sukhbaatar and that's him to receive a Hoops Agents Player of the Week award for round 12.
The 28-year old forward had the game-high 32 points adding eight rebounds for Selenge in his team's victory, helping them to crush Miners (#10, 3-11) with 17-point margin 84-67. Bodons maintains the 2nd position in Mongolian MBL. They would have been even better if they hadn't lost a few games earlier this season. Selenge will need more victories to improve their 8-4 record. In the team's last game Cylla had a remarkable 54.5% from 2-point range. He turned to be Bodons's top player in his first season with the team. Jeantal Cylla averages this season 30.2ppg.

The second most remarkable performance in last round's games was young American forward Kenny Wooten Jr. (204-F-1998) of Ulaanbaatar TLG. Wooten Jr. impressed basketball fans with a double-double of 25 points and 13 rebounds. Bad luck as UB TLG was edged by the higher-ranked Brothers (#6, 6-5) 89-86. This loss caused UB TLG to drop to 9th position in the standings. His team is not often considered as one of the league's best with a mere 5-10 record. Wooten Jr. is a newcomer at UB TLG and it seems he did not have too much trouble to become one of team's leaders.

The third best performed player last round was American Diamond Stone (208-C/F-1997) of Zavkhan Brothers (#6). Stone scored 29 points and grabbed 15 rebounds (!!!). He was a key player of Brothers, leading his team to a 89-86 win against the lower-ranked UB TLG (#9, 5-10). Brothers needs these victories very badly if they think about getting closer to top teams. Their record at this point is 6 victories and 5 lost games. Stone has a great season in Mongolia. After 14 games, he made it on the list of the league's leaders in points with 26.5ppg (best scorer) and rebounds with 10.2rpg (4th best). He also has 2.4bpg and and 3PT: 41.7%.
