Benjamin Lim

Wooi Khaw-Yeong put on an extraordinary performance in the last round for Tong Whye, receiving a Hoops Agents Player of the Week award for round 8.
The player had a double-double of 28 points and 20 rebounds, while his team crushed GBA Hoops (#9, 1-7) with 16-point margin 80-64. Tong Whye maintains the 6th position in Singapore NBL. Tong Whye is a typical solid league team placed somewhere in the middle or a little bit lower in the standings. They need more victories to improve their 4-4 record. Khaw-Yeong turned to be Tong Whye's top player in his first season with the team. Wooi Khaw-Yeong has solid league stats. He leads league in rebounds with 13.6rpg. Khaw-Yeong is in league's top in assists (7th best: 2.9apg).

The second best player in last round's games was young Benjamin Lim (184-G-1997) of Nanyang. Lim had a very good evening with a double-double of 27 points and 17 rebounds. Bad luck as Nanyang was edged by slightly lower-ranked SAF (#8, 2-6) 67-64. Nanyang managed to keep the same 7th spot in the standings. 5 lost games are too many comparing to just two victories Nanyang managed to get this year. Lim is a newcomer at Nanyang, but is already one of team's top players. He belongs to the best scorers in the league with 15.5ppg (#5). He also registered 10.5 boards per game.

Third on the list of top players last round was Kelvin Lim-Hong of league's second-best Hornets. Lim-Hong scored 21 points and grabbed twelve rebounds (!!!). He was a key player of Hornets, leading his team to a 82-60 easy win against #4 ranked Xin Hua in a game of the week. Hornets is closer and closer to top of the standings. They will still need more victories. But 7-1 record is not that bad... Lim-Hong has a great season in Singapore. After only 7 games, he made it on the list of the league's leaders in rebounds with 10.0rpg (6th best).
