American forward Noah Dahlman (199-F-89) had a very impressive game in the last round for B.Bystrica, receiving a Eurobasket.com Player of the Week award for round 15. The 23-year old player was the main contributor (27 points, eight rebounds) to his team's victory, helping them to crush Nova Ves (#4, 8-6) with 16-point margin 93-77. B.Bystrica maintains the 8th position in Slovakian Extraliga. B.Bystrica is currently ranked second from the bottom. They need more victories to improve their 4-9 record. Dahlman turned to be B.Bystrica's top player in his first season with the team. Noah Dahlman averages just after two games 24.0ppg and 10.0rpg.
The second best player in last round's games was 25-year old Bahamas J.R. Cadot (195-G-87) of Nitra. Cadot had a very good evening with 25 points and 5 rebounds. It was enough for Nitra to edge slightly higher-ranked Levice (#2, 9-4) 87-81. It was definitely game of the week between two contenders to the title. Nitra consolidated its place in top 3 of the standings. His team's 9-5 record is not bad at all. Cadot is a newcomer at Nitra, but is already one of team's top players. He belongs to the best scorers in the league with 16.5ppg (#6). He also registered 6.1 boards per game.
Third on the list of top players last round was American forward Joseph Harris (196-F-87) of Prievidza (#5). Harris scored 20 points and grabbed seven rebounds. He was a key player of Prievidza, leading his team to a 92-78 easy win against slightly lower-ranked Handlova (#7, 4-9). The chances of Prievidza ranking at the top of the league, however are very questionable as they have already lost 7 games, recording just six victories. With bigger assistance of his teammates, Harris could help Prievidza to bring them higher in the standings. Harris has a very solid season. In 11 games in Slovakia he scored 15.2ppg. He also has 5.5rpg, 2.4spg and FGP: 51.5%.
