Novak's 13 points and 8 assists give him Druga Liga Player of the Week award

31-year old point guard Jan Novak (193-PG-1995) put on an extraordinary performance in the last round for second-ranked Sencur Gorenjska Kranj and receives a Hoops Agents _A2D Player of the Week award for round 3.
He had the game-high 13 points adding seven rebounds and eight assists for Sencur Gor. in his team's victory, helping them to beat Mornar (1-1) 81-71. The game was between two of the league's top four teams. Sencur Gor. is placed at 2nd position in ABA League. Sencur Gor. 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 1-1 record. In the team's last game Novak had a remarkable 71.4% from 2-point range. He has many years of experience at Sencur Gor., through which he has constantly improved. Jan Novak averages just after two games 14.0ppg, 6.0rpg and 6.0apg.

Second best performed player last round was Vladimir Tomasevic (201-F-1992) of KK Primorje 1945 Herceg Novi. He is a forward in his first season at Primorje. In the last game Tomasevic recorded an impressive 28 points, 7 rebounds and 3 assists. Bad luck as Primorje was edged by Zlatibor (2-0) 101-98. The season is still at the very beginning and this lost game may not be such crucial, of course if they start win the games. Let's wait for the next round. Tomasevic is a newcomer at Primorje and quickly became one of team's most reliable players. He belongs to the best scorers in the league with 33.5ppg (#1). He also registered 6.0 boards per game.

Third place about best performers goes to forward AJ Braun (206-F-2002, agency: Dagger Basket) of KK Mornar-Barsko Zlato Bar (#3). Braun scored 23 points and grabbed 10 rebounds. Despite Braun's great performance the Mornar lost 71-81 to #2 ranked Sencur Gor.. But his team cannot count on just a single player as he also needs help of the other teammates especially in such crucial game. The last thing Mornar needs is to lose another game like this one. They lose more and more distance to the top teams. Their record is 1 victory and 1 lost game. Braun has a great season in ABA League. After only 2 games, he made it on the list of the league's leaders in points with 24.5ppg (3rd best) and rebounds with 8.5rpg (6th best).
