Nattapat Biasamrit put on an extraordinary performance in the last round for league's best team Bangkok Tigers and receives a Hoops Agents Player of the Week award for round 8.
He had a double-double of 22 points and 12 rebounds, while his team edged out SWU (#8, 3-6) 75-71. It allowed Bangkok Tigers to consolidate first place in the Thailand league. They maintain a perfect record without any lost game in the league. It's already very far into the season and Bangkok Tigers keeps a perfect 8-0 record. Biasamrit turned to be Bangkok Tigers' top player in his first season with the team. Biasamrit has impressive league stats. He is in league's top in rebounds (5th best: 10.1rpg).
Second best performed player last round was Kittithep Dasom (PG) of Thunders. He is a guard in his first season at Thunders. In the last game Dasom recorded impressive double-double of 32 points and 12 rebounds. Of course he led Thunders to another comfortable win 78-64 over T-REX (#10, 0-9) being unquestionably team leader. Thunders' 7th position in the standings has not changed. His team is not often considered as one of the league's best with a mere 3-6 record. Dasom is a newcomer at Thunders and quickly became one of team's most reliable players. He belongs to the best scorers in the league with 20.1ppg (#2). His other stats are also decent: 5.7rpg and 3.6apg.
Third place about best performers goes to guard Nattakarn Muangboon (180-PG-91) of Hitech (#3).

He was a key player of Hitech, leading his team to a 74-60 easy win against the lower-ranked Shoot it Dragon (#6, 4-5). Hitech needs these victories very badly if they think about getting closer to top teams. Their record at this point is 6 victories and 2 lost games. Muangboon has a great season in Thailand. After only 8 games, he made it on the list of the league's leaders in assists with 7.6apg (best passer).

The Player of the week is selected based on efficiency calculation, but also including game result, importance of the game, if played recorded double-double/triple-double, etc.
The efficiency formula is a combination of various formulas used by different basketball organizations/leagues. We got involved many basketball scouts and journalists to assure it's accuracy.
The formula: 1.5*PTS + 3* (REB+AST+ST+BL-TO) - 2*BSAG - 4*PF + 3*PFRV + 4* (2FGPM+3FGPM) + 1.5*FTM - 3* (2FGPA-2FGPM) - 3* (3FGPA-3FGPM) - (FTA-FTM)
