25-year old guard Hsiao-Tong Peng (168-G-1998) put on an extraordinary performance in the last round for league's best team Taiyuan Textile and receives a Hoops Agents Player of the Week award for round 3.
She had the game-high 18 points adding six rebounds and three assists for Taiyuan T. in her team's victory, helping them to crush, the league's bottom-ranked team Taipower (#4, 0-9) with 18-point margin 74-56. The game was between two of the league's top four teams. It allowed Taiyuan Textile to consolidate first place in the Taiwanese WSBL. They maintain a perfect record without any lost game in the league. It's already very far into the season and Taiyuan T. keeps a perfect 9-0 record.

She is in league's top in rebounds (5th best: 5.1rpg), assists (9th best: 2.7apg) and averages solid 54.8% FGP.

Second best performed player last round was Yu-Wen Xiao of league's second-best Cathay Life Tigers. She is a in her first season at Cathay Life. In the last game Xiao recorded an impressive double-double of 16 points and 10 rebounds. Bad luck as Cathay Life lost that game 60-78 to Taiyuan T. (9-0). The season is still at the very beginning and this lost game may not be such crucial, of course if they start win the games. Let's wait for the next round. Xiao is one of the most experienced players at Cathay Life and has a reputation of one of team's most reliable players. She belongs to the best scorers in the league with 13.2ppg (#1). She also registered 9.6 boards per game.

She was another key player of Cathay Life Tigers, helping her team with a 87-60 easy win against #4 ranked Taipower in a game of the week. Cathay Life needs these victories very badly if they think about taking over top position in the standings. Their record at this point is 6 victories and 3 lost games. Xu has a great season in Taiwan. After only 8 games, she made it on the list of the league's leaders in assists with 0.5apg (3rd best).
