28-year old American forward Eric Freeman (202-F-1997) put on an amazing game in the last round for Shoot it Dragons and receives a Hoops Agents Player of the Week award for round 2.
He had a double-double of 31 points and 16 rebounds, while his team crushed, the league's bottom-ranked team PNRU (#10, 0-3) with 17-point margin 95-78. Thanks to this victory Dragons moved-up to the 4th position in Thailand league. They would have been even better if they hadn't lost that single game earlier this season. Shoot it Dragons will need more victories to improve their 2-1 record. Freeman just recently signed at Dragons, being already a very valuable addition to the team. Brunswick Community College graduate has very impressive stats this year. Freeman is in league's top in points (5th best: 26.3ppg) and averages solid 1.3bpg,2.3spg and 66.7% FGP.

Second best performed player last round was Elijah Tillman (203-C-1994) of Thai General Equipment. He is American center in his first season at TGE. In the last game Tillman recorded an impressive double-double of 24 points and 21 rebounds. It was enough for THE to edge Big Lions (2-1) by 5 points 75-70. The season is still at the very beginning and this victory may help a lot. Let's wait for the next round. Tillman is one of the most experienced players at TGE and has a reputation of one of team's most reliable players. He belongs to the best scorers in the league with 24.7ppg (#7). He also registered 16.7 boards per game.

Third place about best performers goes to guard Jarron Crump (183-PG-1992) of Banvas Slammers (#7). Crump got into 30-points club by scoring 48 points in the last round. He went also for seven rebounds and four assists. He was a key player of Slammers, leading his team to a 96-94 win against JBBS DW (1-2). The chances of Banvas not to end season at such low position in the league, however are less than slim as they have already lost 2 games, recording just one victory. With bigger assistance of his teammates, Crump could try to bring Banvas' a little bit higher in the standings. Crump has individually a great season in Thailand. After only 3 games, he made it on the list of the league's leaders in points with 36.3ppg (best scorer).
