Talented American Terrico White (196-G-90) put on an extraordinary performance in the last round for Radnicki KG and that's him to receive a Eurobasket.com Player of the Week award for round 8. The 22-year old guard had the game-high 36 points adding eight rebounds and three assists for Radnicki KG in his team's victory, helping them to edge out Cibona (4-4) 85-81. Radnicki KG is placed at 6th position in Adriatic League . Radnicki KG 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. In the team's last game White had a remarkable 81.8% from 2-point range. He turned to be Radnicki KG's top player in his first season with the team. The University of Mississippi graduate has very impressive stats this year. White is in league's top in points (7th best: 14.4ppg) and averages solid 2.1spg and 54.8% FGP.
The second most remarkable performance in last round's games was 26-year old Australian center Aaron Baynes (208-C-86) of Union Olimpija. Baynes impressed basketball fans with 24 points, 6 rebounds and 2 assists. Of course he lead Union Olimpija to another comfortable win outscoring the lower-ranked Szolnok (#14, 2-6) 83-63. This victory allowed Union Olimpija to move up to 8th position in the standings. His team lost some distance to top teams. But 4-4 record is not bad and everything may still change. Baynes is a newcomer at Union Olimpija and it seems he did not have too much trouble to become one of team's leaders.
The third best performed player last round was Serbian Predrag Suput (200-F-77, agency: Beo Basket) of Cedevita (#3). Suput scored 17 points and grabbed twelve rebounds (!!!). Despite Suput's great performance Cedevita lost 61-74 to the lower-ranked MZT Skopje (#9, 4-4). But his team cannot count on just a single player as he also needs help of the other teammates. The last thing Cedevita needs is to lose another game like this one. They lose more and more distance to the top teams. Their record is 5 victories and 3 lost games. Suput has a very solid season. In 8 games in Adriatic League he scored 11.1ppg. He also has 5.3rpg and FGP: 59.2%.
Other top performing players last week: 4. Vladimir Mihailovic (193-G-90) of Buducnost - 22 points, 4 rebounds and 4 assists 5. Aleksandar Capin (186-PG-82) of Radnicki KG - 21 points and 4 assists 6. Todor Gecevski (209-C-77) of MZT Skopje - 20 points, 7 rebounds and 5 assists 7. Darko Planinic (211-C-90) of Siroki WWin - 21 points, 5 rebounds and 2 assists 8. DeMarcus Nelson (193-G-85) of Crvena Zvezda - 20 points, 4 rebounds and 5 assists 9. Clifford Hammonds (191-G-85) of Igokea - 23 points and 4 rebounds 10. Boris Savovic (210-F-87) of Crvena Zvezda - 14 points and 10 rebounds
The Player of the week is chosen 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)
