28-year old American power forward Aric Holman (208-F/C-1997) had an amazing evening in the last round for league's best team Formosa Dreamers and receives a Hoops Agents Player of the Week award for round 26.
He had the game-high 31 points adding nine rebounds for Dreamers in his team's victory, helping them to beat Lioneers (#3, 18-14) 92-86. The game was between two of the league's top four teams. It allowed Dreamers to take over top position in the Taiwanese league. They would have been even better if they hadn't lost a few games earlier this season. Dreamers has a very solid 22-12 record, but they cannot be too comfortable about keeping top position. In the team's last game Holman had a remarkable 78.6% from 2-point range. It's his second year at Dreamers and it's hard to imagine this team without him. Mississippi State University graduate has very impressive stats this year. Holman is in league's top in rebounds (5th best: 11.1rpg) and averages solid 1.6bpg and 54.1% FGP.

Second best performed player last round was Kristijan Krajina (208-C-1990, agency: 011 Sports) of Kaohsiung Aquas. He is Croatian center in his first season at Kaohsiung A.. In the last game Krajina recorded an impressive double-double of 22 points and 23 rebounds. Bad luck as Aquas lost that game 99-115 to the higher-ranked N.Taipei CTBC (#4, 18-16). Kaohsiung A. are still at the very bottom. 25 lost games are too many comparing to just nine victories Aquas managed to get this year. Krajina is a newcomer at Kaohsiung A. and quickly became one of team's most reliable players.

Third place about best performers goes to another Kaohsiung A.'s star - guard Hunter Maldonado (201-G-1999, agency: Octagon Europe). Maldonado got into 30-points club by scoring 33 points in the last round. He went also for five assists. Despite Maldonado's great performance the Kaohsiung Aquas lost 99-115 to the higher-ranked N.Taipei CTBC (#4, 18-16). But his team cannot count on just these two top stars as they also need help of the other teammates. Aquas can only dream about fighting for top spots in the league. They have extremely bad season and 9-25 record places them at the very bottom of the standings. Maldonado has a very solid season. In 8 games in Taiwan he scored 22.9ppg. He also has 6.3rpg, 5.9apg and a FGP of 58.5%.

4. Viktor Gaddefors (201-F-1992) of N.Taipei CTBC - 23 points and 13 rebounds
5. Nemanja Radovic (208-F/C-1991) of N.Taipei CTBC - 23 points and 12 rebounds
